Curcumin

Catalog No. T1516   CAS 458-37-7
Synonyms: 姜黄素, Turmeric yellow, Indian Saffron, Diferuloylmethane, Natural Yellow 3

Curcumin is a phytopolylphenol pigment isolated from the plant Curcuma longa, commonly known as turmeric, with a variety of pharmacologic properties. Curcumin blocks the formation of reactive oxygen species, possesses anti-inflammatory properties as a result of inhibition of cyclooxygenases (COX) and other enzymes involved in inflammation; and disrupts cell signal transduction by various mechanisms including inhibition of protein kinase C. These effects may play a role in the agent's observed antineoplastic properties, which include inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and suppression of chemically induced carcinogenesis and tumor growth in animal models of cancer.

Targets&IC50 p300 histone acetylatransferase:25 μM
In vitro Curcumin induces the expression of forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) through activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 signaling. Curcumin inhibits cell proliferation, which was associated with upregulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, p27 and p21, and downregulation of cyclin D1[2]. Curcumin induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and mitochondrial dysfunction as evidenced by up-regulation of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein homologous protein (CHOP), phosphorylation of JNK and down-regulation of SERCA2ATPase, release of cytochrome c, decrease of Bcl-2 and reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential in both AGS and HT-29 cells[3].
In vivo Chronic treatment with curcumin significantly reverses the CMS-induced behavioral abnormalities in stressed rats. Additionally, curcumin effectively inhibits cytokine gene expression at both the mRNA and the protein level and reduces the activation of NF-κB[4].
Cell Research 1×104 B16-R cells are cultivated as monolayer culture for 12 hr. They were then incubated in 200 μL of RPMI, 10% FBS containing curcumin at final concentrations from 1–100 μM in 96-multiwell plates for 24-48 hr. After these incubations, cells are washed twice in PBS and 500 μl of fresh culture medium containing MTT (0.3 mg/mL) are added for colorimetric assay. (Only for Reference)
