Yucca filamentosa
Eastern North American yucca used by Cherokee and other Eastern tribes for joint pain, skin conditions, and as soap plant.
Yucca filamentosa, a traditional Native American medicinal plant, is used topically and orally for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, primarily attributed to saponins, resveratrol, and flavonoids. Modern applications include joint pain relief and skin cleansing, though clinical evidence remains limited (Level C).
The anti-inflammatory effects of Yucca filamentosa are mediated by steroidal saponins (e.g., sarsasapogenin) that inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Resveratrol and flavonoids contribute to antioxidant activity by scavenging reactive oxygen species and upregulating Nrf2-mediated detoxification enzymes. Topical saponins also exhibit mild antimicrobial and surfactant properties, supporting traditional use as a skin cleanser.
