Piperine is a phytochemical alkaloid in the class of organosulfur compound, found abundantly in white and black pepper, long pepper, etc.
In picryl chloride (PC)-induced ear swelling in PC sensitized mice,
PN-ext exhibited its histamine release inhibitory activity, in vitro on
compound 48/80-induced histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells.
Piperine (4.5 and 2.25 mg/kg) orally
administered 5 times a week for 8 weeks in a murine model of asthma,
showed an effectiveness in suppressed eosinophil infiltration, allergic
airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness by suppression of
the production of interleukin-4, interleukin-5(white blood cells
