1 In addition, curcumin inhibited the phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), decreased B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) and promoted BCL-2-associated X protein (BAX) and cleavage of caspase 3, subsequently inducing apoptosis of breast cancer cells.

2 In conclusion, curcumin inhibited the proliferation of breast cancer cells and induced G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, which may be associated with the decrease of CDC25 and CDC2 and increase of P21 protein levels, as well as inhibition of the phosphorylation of Akt/mTOR and induction of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.
