Peroxynitrite is a cytotoxic intermediate produced by the reaction between the superoxide anion (O(2)) and nitric oxide (NO). The aim of this study was to investigate the scavenging effects of Curcuma longa L. on authentic peroxynitrite, and further studies are
Two series of curcumin analogues, a total of twenty-four compounds, were synthesized and evaluated. The most potent compound, compound 23, showed potent growth inhibitory activities on both prostate and breast cancer lines with IC(50) values in sub-micromolar range, fifty times
Series of curcumin derivatives were synthesized; the inhibitory activities on thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) of all analogues were evaluated by DTNB assay in vitro. It is found that most of the analogues can inhibit TrxR in the low micromolar range; Structure-activity

In this study, some of the synthetic curcuminoid derivatives are analyzed for their anti-angiogenic activity. Intraperitoneal administration of the compounds tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), salicyl curcumin (SC) and curcuminIII (C-III) reduced the number of tumour directed capillaries induced by injecting B16F-10 melanoma
Molecular docking of the interaction of curcumin and DNMT1 suggested that curcumin covalently blocks the catalytic thiolate of C1226 of DNMT1 to exert its inhibitory effect. This was validated by showing that curcumin inhibits the activity of M. SssI with
