Curcumin as a therapeutic agent against cancer

Objective: This article reviews the effect of curcumin against tumor angiogenesis from view-points of cancer microcirculation and biomarkers. Results and conclusion. We demonstrated an anti-angiogenic effect of curcumin in tumors using nude mice. We studied the inhibitory effects of curcumin on tu...

Results and conclusion. We demonstrated an anti-angiogenic effect of curcumin in tumors using nude mice. We studied the inhibitory effects of curcumin on tumor-induced neocapillaries and proangiogenic factors, based on our intravital fluorescent observation.
