The Piper genus is the most representative of the Piperaceae reaching around 2000 species distributed in the pantropical region. In the Neotropics, its species are represented by herbs, shrubs, and lianas, which are used in traditional medicine to prepare teas and infusions. Its essential oils (EOs) present high yield and are chemically constituted by complex mixtures or the predominance of main volatile constituents. The chemical composition of Piper EOs displays interspecific or intraspecific variations, according to the site of collection or seasonality. The main volatile compounds identified in Piper EOs are monoterpenes hydrocarbons, oxygenated monoterpenoids, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated sesquiterpenoids and large amounts of phenylpropanoids. In this review, we are reporting the biological potential of Piper EOs from the Neotropical region. There are many reports of Piper EOs as antimicrobial agents (fungi and bacteria), antiprotozoal (Leishmania spp., Plasmodium spp., and Trypanosoma spp.), acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activity against different tumor cells lines (breast, leukemia, melanoma, gastric, among others). These studies can contribute to the rational and economic exploration of Piper species, once they have been identified as potent natural and alternative sources to treat human diseases.

“…The isoforms β-, γ- and δ-elemene were identified as main compounds in other oils of Piper occurring at Brazilian Amazon, such as P. aleyreanum and P. dilatatum [ 7 , 15 ]. Furthermore, the monoterpenes α-pinene and β-pinene have predominated in the oil of P. anonifolium [ 21 ]. The high content of bicyclogermacrene and germacrene D has also been found in oils of P. arboreum occurring on diverse Brazilian region [ 22 – 24 ].…”

Background Piper aequale Vahl is a small shrub that grows in the shadow of large trees in the Carajás National Forest, Municipality of Parauapebas, Para state, Brazil. The local people have used the plant against rheumatism and inflammation.MethodsThe essential oil of the aerial parts was extracted and analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The MTT colorimetric assay was used to measuring the cytotoxic activity of the oil against human cancer lines. The determination of antioxidant activity of the oil was conducted by DPPH radical scavenging assay.ResultsThe main constituents were δ-elemene (18.92 %), β-pinene (15.56 %), α-pinene (12.57 %), cubebol (7.20 %), β-atlantol (5.87 %), and bicyclogermacrene (5.51 %), totalizing 65.63 % of the oil. The oil displayed a strong in vitro cytotoxic activity against the human cancer cell lines HCT-116 (colon) and ACP03 (gastric) with IC50values of 8.69 μg/ml and 1.54 μg/ml, respectively. The oil has induced the apoptosis in a gastric cancer cells in all tested concentration (0.75–3.0 μg/ml), after 72 h of treatment, when compared to negative control (p < 0.001). Also, the oil showed a significant antioxidant activity (280.9 ± 22.2 mg TE/ml), when analyzed as Trolox equivalent, and a weak acetylcholinesterase inhibition, with a detection limit of 100 ng, when compared to the physostigmine standard (1.0 ng).ConclusionThe higher cell growth inhibition induced by the oil of P. aequale is probably due to its primary terpene compounds, which were previously reported in the proliferation inhibition, in stimulation of apoptosis and induction of cell cycle arrest in malignant cells.

“…The EO from P. anonifolium studied here contained caryophyllene (11.3%), germacrene-D (9.6%), δ-cadinene (6.6%), α-humulene (6.6%), and neoalloocimene (5.5%), while a previously reported EO from the Brazilian Pará was composed of selin-11-en-4-β-α-ol (20.0%), β-selinene (12.7%), α-selinene (11.9%), and α-pinene (8.8%) [ 37 ]. Furthermore, the EOs from seven Brazilian Amazonian populations of Pa showed two different chemotypes, one rich in α-pinene (40.9–53.1%)/β-pinene (17.2–22.9%), and one rich in α-eudesmol (33.5%)/ishwarane (19.1%) [ 38 ]. The EO from P. reticulatum studied here contained the phenylpropanoid apiol as the main component (15.0%) while β-elemene (24.6%) and β-caryophyllene (16.7%) were abundant in a Pr oil from the northern region of Brazil [ 39 ].…”

“…The essential oils studied here have shown important activities against phytopathogenic fungi (G2-4). Essential oils from the genus Piper have been reported to have a wide range of biological properties [ 10 , 11 , 14 , 21 , 40 ], including fungicidal effects [ 35 , 38 , 39 ]. Specifically, among the species studied here, the essential oils of P. tuberculatum (rich in α- and β-pinene 17–27%, (E)-β-ocimene 14% and β-caryophyllene 32.1%) [ 41 ], and P. anonifolium (with selin-11-en-4α-ol 20.0%, β-selinene 12.7%, and α-selinene 11.9%) showed strong antifungal activity against Cladosporium cladosporioides and C. sphaerospermum [ 37 ].…”

The chemical composition of essential oils (EOs) from ten Peruvian Piper species (Piper coruscans, Pc; P. tuberculatum, Pt; P. casapiense, Pcs; P. obliquum, Po; P. dumosum, Pd; P. anonifolium, Pa; P. reticulatum, Pr; P. soledadense, Ps; P. sancti-felicis, Psf and P. mituense, Pm) has been studied, along with their antifungal and phytotoxic activities. These EOs contained β-bisabolene/nerolidol (Pc), β-bisabolene/δ-cadinene/caryophyllene (Pt), caryophyllene oxide (Pcs), bicyclogermacrene/10-epi-Elemol (Po), bicyclogermacrene/germacrene-D/apiol (Pd), caryophyllene/germacrene-D (Pa), germacrene-D (Pr), limonene/apiol (Ps), apiol (Psf), and apiol/bicyclogermacrene (Pm) as major components, and some are described here for the first time (Ps, Pcs, Pm). A composition-based dendrogram of these Piper species showed four major groups (G1: Pc and Pt, G2: Pcs, Po, Pd, Pa, and Pr, G3: Ps, and G4: Psf and Pm). The spore germination effects (Aspergillus niger, Botrytis cinerea, and Alternaria alternate) and phytotoxicity (Lolium perenne and Lactuca sativa) of these EOs were studied. Most of these Piper essential oils showed important activity against phytopathogenic fungi (except G1), especially against B. cinerea. Similarly, most of the essential oils were phytotoxic against L. perenne (except G1), with P. sancti-felicis (G4), P. casapiense (G2), and P. reticulatum (G2) being the most effective. Caryophyllene oxide, β-caryophyllene, β-pinene, limonene, α-humulene, and apiol were evaluated against B. cinerea, with the most effective compounds being β-pinene, apiol, and limonene. This work demonstrates the species-dependent potential of essential oils from Peruvian Piper species as fungicidal and herbicidal agents.
