p-Cymene is a natural product that has been shown to be active against a number of human pathogens, including bacteria and fungi. It is a metabolite of cymene, which is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon found in the essential oils of many plants. p-Cymene inhibits bacterial growth by interfering with signal pathways that are important for bacterial cell division. This inhibition leads to an increase in the mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial functions, which are vital for energy metabolism. The antimicrobial properties of p-cymene have been shown through its ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria at low concentrations and kill them at high concentrations. It also demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis.
