Background
Caffeic acid phenethyl ester inhibits bacterial growth by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which disrupt the cell's outer membrane. Anti-inflammatory effects of CAPE arise from inhibiting the release of arachidonic acid from the cell membrane as well as inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2 activity.
