From Wikipedia

Piperine is an alkaloid extracted from the plant, Piper nigrum. Responsible for the pungency of black pepper, it is used in food flavorings as a spice, in fragrances, as an insecticide, and as an animal pest repellent. Along with its isomer chavicine, piperine from black pepper and long pepper has pungency effects via activation of TRPV1. Piperine also inhibits CYP2J2. It has been used in some forms of traditional medicine. It can be acutely toxic if swallowed in extremely high doses. (>300mg/kg)
