Nepetalactone is a TRPA1 agonist (EC50 = 172.5-698.4 μM) and antibacterial agent that can be present in the essential oils of Nepeta crispa and Nepeta rtanjensis. Nepetalactone activates TRPA1 orthologs through a conserved cysteine-rich CVT motif, triggering calcium influx, thereby driving pest aversion through PKCα and attracting predators through CaMKII, and can suppress pests in the field. Nepetalactone inhibits bacterial and fungal biofilms and produces additive interactions with 1,5,9-eDLA and RA. Nepetalactone induces ROS production in macrophages. Nepetalactone can be used in research related to foodborne infections, pest control, and bacterial and fungal infections .
