1 Curcumin exerts antidifferentiation effect through AMPKalpha-PPAR-gamma in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and antiproliferatory effect through AMPKalpha-COX-2 in cancer cells. Curcumin mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase II Homo sapiens
2 Stimulation of AMPK by curcumin resulted in the down-regulation of PPAR (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor)-gamma in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and the decrease in COX-2 in MCF-7 cells. Curcumin mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase II Homo sapiens
3 Regulation of AMPK and its downstream targets such as PPAR-gamma, Mapkinases, and COX-2 by curcumin appears to be important in controlling adipocytes and cancerous cells. Curcumin mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase II Homo sapiens
