Piper sarmentosum
Southeast Asian creeping pepper; leaves eaten as vegetable and used medicinally across the region.
Piper sarmentosum is a Southeast Asian creeping pepper used both as a culinary vegetable and in traditional medicine. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, antimalarial, antifungal, and analgesic activities, attributed to phenylpropanoids such as asaricin and sarmentine, along with methyl eugenol and caryophyllene. Evidence is limited (Grade C) but supports its traditional uses for digestive disorders, malaria, cough, and wound healing.
Sarmentine acts as a TRPV1 agonist, producing analgesic effects via desensitization of nociceptive neurons. Asaricin and other phenylpropanoids inhibit cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. The antimalarial activity is linked to inhibition of heme polymerization, while antifungal effects involve disruption of fungal cell membrane integrity. Caryophyllene may contribute to anti-inflammatory activity through CB2 receptor modulation.
