Pellitorine is an α-Glucosidase inhibitor isolated from the roots of Piper Nigrum th at exhibit anti-diabeticanti-canceranti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Pellitorine is an AC at (Acyl-CoA cholesteryl acyl transferase) inhibitor th at inhibits cholesterol esterification in HepG2 cells. Also pellitorine exhibit potent larvicide activity in mosquito by Inhibition of gene expression encoding V-type H+-ATPase and aquaporine 4. Some new research suggests th at anti-adipogenic activity of pellitorine depends on TRPV1.
