Description
Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27503249 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22546674 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9301668 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02724202

Demethoxycurcumin is a derivative or curcumin and represents one of the major active components of curcumin products isolated from Curcumae sp. In preclinical models, Demethoxycurcumin inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production, and expression of iNOS and COX2 in RAW264.7 cells by blocking NF-kB activation. Demethoxycurcumin also inhibits NF-kB dependent iNOS, TNFα and IL-1β expression in LPS-treated rat microglial cells. Demethoxycurcumin suppresses the expression of MMPs and ICAM-1 in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells by inhibition of NF-kB. Demethoxycurcumin is currently in Phase I clinical trials.

Sample Use Guides

500 mg (95% curcumin, 5% desmethoxycurcumin) twice per day for 2 weeks.
Route of Administration: Oral
Cytotoxicity of compound 7 (Demethoxycurcumin) were evaluated against a panel of 8 cancer cell lines; lung (A549), prostate (DU-145), skin (SK-MEL-5), pancreatic (BxPC-3), liver (Hep G2), colon (HT-29), breast (MCF-7) and (MDA-MB-231). Cell lines were cultured in DMEM media supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine, 10% fetal bovine serum, 50 mkg/ml gentamycin and 2.5 mkg/ml amphotericin B, maintained in a 37 C humid atmosphere of 5% CO2 cell incubator. Samples and drug standards (cisplatin and vinblastine sulfate) were dissolved in DMSO and immediately diluted with DMEM media to yield a final DMSO concentration of less than 0.5% v/v. Cells were plated into 96-well microplates at 5,000–10,000 cells per well and maintained in the cell incubator for 24 h. Then, 100 mkL of samples were introduced in triplicates to a final concentration of 15–150 mkM. Drug standards were also introduced to a final concentration of 0.03–2000 mkM (cisplatin) and 0.002–100 mkM (vinblastine sulfate). Cells were further incubated for 48 h and then, cell viability was determined according to the manufacturer protocol of a commercial MTS assay kit
