Lee et al. (2000) showed capsaicin induced apoptosis in A172 human glioblastoma cells in a time and dose-dependent manner. The mechanism whereby capsaicin induced apoptosis may involve reduction of the basal generation of ROS. 4 Biochemical pathways of important phytochemicals In plants three pathways: shikimate, isoprenoid, and polyketide are particularly the source of most secondary metabolites. After the formation of the major basic skeletons, further modifications result in plant species specific compounds.

Chlorophyll absorbs light most strongly in the blue portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, followed by the red portion. However, it is a poor absorber of green and near-green portions of the spectrum; hence the green color of chlorophyll-containing tissues (Speer, 1997). Chlorophyll was first isolated by Joseph Bienaimé Caventou and Pierre Joseph Pelletier in 1817 (Pelletier and Caventou, 1951). In pepper, unripe fruit colors can vary from ivory, green, or yellow. , 2005). The persistent presence of chlorophyll in fruit ripening to accumulate other pigments like carotenoids or anthocyanins produces brown or black mature fruit colors.
