Carveol is a terpene alcohol initially found in spearmint oil that exhibits anti-parasitic, neuromodulatory, and anticancer activities. Carveol is commercially used as a food additive and fragrance. This compound activates transient receptor potential vanilloid 3 (TRPV3) channels in vitro and displays acaricidal characteristics, inhibiting growth of Dermatophagoides. In prostate cancer cells, carveol increases levels of p21 and activation of ERK, suppressing cellular proliferation.
