Use of Carpaine

Carpaine is an alkaloid isolated from Carica papaya Linn with anti-thrombocytopenic activity, exhibits potent activity in sustaining platelet counts with no acute toxicity[1].Carpaine has anti-plasmodial activity to prevent malaria[2].Carpaine affects the myocardium directly, it reduces cardiac output, stroke volume, stroke work, and cardiac power in rat, which has been studied for its cardiovascular effects[3].
