Curcumin targets multiple enzymes involved in the ROS metabolic pathway to suppress tumor cell growth
Abstract Curcumin has been reported to exhibit anti-tumorigenic activity; however, since its precise actions remain unclear, its effects are considered to be deceptive. In the present study, we confirmed the anti-tumorigenic effects of curcumin on CML-derived leukemic cells in a xenograft model and...
