Piper aduncum
Neotropical piper used widely from Mexico to Peru for wound healing, antimicrobial, and respiratory conditions.
Matico Leaf (Piper aduncum) is a Neotropical plant traditionally used from Mexico to Peru for wound healing, hemostasis, and respiratory infections. Modern research supports its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal activities, attributed to compounds such as dillapiole, apigenin, rutin, tannins, and beta-caryophyllene. Evidence level C indicates limited clinical data, but traditional use is extensive.
The wound healing and hemostatic effects are primarily due to tannins and flavonoids (e.g., apigenin, rutin) which promote vasoconstriction and collagen synthesis. Antimicrobial activity is linked to dillapiole and beta-caryophyllene, which disrupt microbial cell membranes and inhibit biofilm formation. Anti-inflammatory actions involve inhibition of COX-2 and NF-κB pathways, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production. The essential oil also exhibits antifungal properties against dermatophytes.
