Scientific Background Information

Product Description
  • Most water soluble synthetic monocarbonyl analog of curcumin (MAC) for in vitro and in vivo application.
  • Potently inhibits NF-κB and its nuclear translocation by suppressing IKK-α and IKK-β, consequently leading to apoptosis.
  • Potent DNA hypomethylating agent. Inhibits HSP90 and NF-κB leading to downregulation of DNA methyltransferase-1 (DNMT-1) expression.
  • Cytotoxic against several cancers in vitro and in vivo. Shows excellent activity against xenografts of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and breast cancer.
  • Antiangiogenic agent. Induces the downregulation of HIF-1α, HSP90, COX-2 and VEGF in tumor samples from xenograft models compared to untreated xenografts.
  • Shows preventive effects on bone loss induced by breast cancer cell bone metastasis. Found to have a potential stimulating effect on osteoblastogenesis and a suppressive effect on osteoclastogenesis in vitro through Smad activation and NF-κB inhibition. May have promise in the development into an antiosteoporotic agent capable of promoting new bone formation while simultaneously reducing bone resorption.
