1 Curcumin inhibits phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced MCP-1 expression by inhibiting ERK and NF-kappaB transcriptional activity. Curcumin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
2 We found that curcumin, a natural biologically active compound extracted from rhizomes of Curcuma species, significantly inhibited the PMA-induced increase in MCP-1 expression and secretion. Curcumin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
3 These effects of curcumin are dose dependent and correlate with the suppression of MCP-1 mRNA expression levels. Curcumin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
4 Therefore, one possible anti-inflammatory mechanism of curcumin may be to inhibit the secretions of inflammatory MCP-1 chemokine. Curcumin C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
