Description générale

(−)-Caryophyllene oxide or β-caryophyllene oxide (BCPO) is a natural plant compound, bicyclic sesquiterpene, and oxidation derivative of β-caryophyllene (BCP). It has a strong wooden odor. BCPO is commonly found in many food and spice plants and essential oils, such as basil, salvia, and Syzygium cordatum. It is widely used as a cosmetic and food additive.

Application

(−)-Caryophyllene oxide has been used:
  • as an antimicrobial agent to study its effects against Gram-positive, Gram-negative and yeast strains
  • as a commercial standard to perform quantification analysis of constitutes from Marchantia polymorpha extracts using gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection (GC-FID)
  • as a reference standard to analyze the enantiomeric ratios of Achillea ligustica essential oil constituents using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

β-caryophyllene oxide is a potent anti-cancer agent which also exerts antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral properties. It is a strong inhibitor of drug-metabolizing enzyme cytochromes P4503A (CYP3A) activities both in rat and human hepatic microsomes. BCPO also exerts analgesic, antifungal, antibacterial, and genoprotective activities.

Sesquiterpenes, the main components of plant essential oils, are often taken in the form of folk medicines and dietary supplements. Several sesquiterpenes possess interesting biological activities but they could interact with concurrently administered drugs via inhibition of drug-metabolizing enzymes. Therefore
