Abstract Barley, scientifically known as Hordeum vulgare ( H. ), is a versatile cereal grain that belongs to the family Poaceae. Barley has exhibited several pharmacological activities, including anti-diuretic, anti-malarial, anti-rheumatic, anti-dysentery, anti-diarrhoea, and in treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. The objective this study was assess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic properties leaves vulgare. Eight extracts were prepared by Soxhlation maceration method using solvents like petroleum ether, chloroform, hydro-alcohol, water. antioxidant activity analysed through 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, while anti-inflammatory assessed protein denaturation, anti-protease, anti-lipoxygenase assays. Extracts from showed maximum so they further screened for cytotoxicity against skin prostate cancer cell lines. Chloroform extract (HSC) prominent compared cancer. To identify phytoconstituents present HSC extract, an analysis conducted high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) techniques. revealed presence 16 different compounds extract. Subsequently, all underwent silico modelling investigate their Notably, octadecenoic acid emerged most compound terms its efficacy inhibiting mitogen-activated kinase (MAPK).
