Cytotoxic Effects of Curcumin in Human Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells
BACKGROUND Curcumin from turmeric is an ingredient in curry powders. Due to its antiinflammatory, antioxidant and anticarcinogenic effects, curcumin is a promising drug for the treatment of cancer and retinal diseases. We investigated whether curcumin alters the viability and physiological properties of human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells in vitro. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Cell...
متن کاملEffect of curcumin on aging retinal pigment epithelial cells
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is now one of the leading causes of blindness in the elderly population. The antioxidative effects of curcumin on aging retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells are still unclear. We conducted an in vitro study to investigate the effects of curcumin on aging RPE cells. A pulsed H2O2 exposure aging model was adopted. Aging RPE cells were treated with curcumin...
متن کاملCurcumin inhibits human retinal pigment epithelial cell proliferation
Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is a common cause of intraoperative failure following retinal reattachment surgery and is mediated in part through the migration, de-differentiation and proliferation of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Given the cytotoxic effects of curcumin on epithelial and endothelial cells, in this study, we assessed the effects of curcumin on human RPE (hRPE) c...
متن کاملEnhancement of percutaneous absorption of curcumin (turmeric pigment) by ethanol
Curcumin is the active component of Curcuma species including C. longa (turmeric). This molecule is well known for its anti-inflammatory effect, which seems to be stronger than that of hydrocortisone. Curcuma species have been used in Asian traditional medicine as topical anti-inflammatory drugs. Curcumin has poor oral bioavailability and its topical application could be of choice, particularly...
