In vitro study | Curcumol ((-)-Curcumol) is the major component extracted from root of Rhizoma Curcumae . Curcumol exerts anticancer effect in cholangiocarcinoma cells via down-regulating CDKL3 . Curcumol induces cell cycle arrest in colon cancer cells via reactive oxygen species and Akt/ GSK3β/cyclin D1 pathway . Curcumol suppresses breast cancer cell metastasis by inhibiting MMP-9 via JNK1/2 and Akt-dependent NF-κB signaling pathways. |

Structural features | Curcumol (curcumol), also known as turmeric cyotol, is a hydrogenated Austrian compound with hemiketal. It is composed of a five-membered ring and a six-membered ring. The seven-membered ring passes through the oxygen bridge of the hemiketal to form a five-membered ring and a six-membered ring, thus reducing the tension of the three rings, A more stable compound with a rigid structure is formed. |
toxicity | the median lethal concentration (LD50) of curcumol injected intraperitoneally in mice is 250 mg kg-1, and the subacute LD50 injected intraperitoneally for 7 days is 163.4 mg kg-1. The target organs of curcumol to chronic toxicity in rats are liver, kidney and ovary. The maximum oral threshold dose for 6 months was 290 mg kg-1 for female and male rats, and 290 mg kg-1 for female and male rats. |
biological activity | Curcumol ((-)-Curcumol) is a biologically active sesquiterpene with many pharmacological activities, such as anti-cancer, anti-microbial, anti-fungal, antiviral and anti-inflammatory. Curcumol effectively induce apoptosis (apoptosis) in many cancer cells by targeting key signaling pathways (such as MAPK/ERK,PI3K/Akt, and NF-κB), which are usually abnormally regulated in several cancers. |
use | curcumol has anti-tumor effect. used for content determination/identification/pharmacological experiment, etc. Pharmacological effect: has anti-tumor effect. The clinical effect on cervical cancer is better. |
