Curcumin Compounds can be Used to Develop New Anticancer Drugs

Recently, a team of researchers has successfully developed curcumin compounds with anticancer activity. The research results have been published in the electronic edition of Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin. A new anticancer drug is expected to be developed.


Jiang Huanghan's curcumin has the effects of anti acidification, anti-inflammatory and anticancer. However, curcumin is difficult to be absorbed by the intestine and magnolol is mostly excreted. In this regard, one team developed a micro powder particle type of theracurmin, which increased the absorption rate by 27 times, and the improvement of liver function was also confirmed. However, when taken orally, the concentration of effective components with anti-cancer effect has not been fully improved in the blood.

Based on the above research, the team developed a new curcumin product and injected it to the colon cancer test mice. The results showed that the concentration of effective components in the blood increased by about 1000 times, and the anticancer effect was confirmed, while the test rats did not have side effects such as weight loss.

Professor hang Gu said it is expected to develop it into a small side - effect anticancer drug, and in animal experiments, it is also beneficial to the effects of living habits, inflammatory diseases and the treatment of diseases other than cancer.

List of Sodium Hyaluronate Applications

Image
 Sodium hyaluronate gel is a kind of glycosaminoglycan, which is widely used in biomedicine, biomaterials, functional foods, and cosmetics.   Sodium hyaluronate has been discovered for nearly 80 years. As early as 1934, Meyer and Palmer isolated a polysaccharide containing uronic acid and hexosamine from the hyaloid body. In a physiological neutral environment, hyaluronic acid is a polyanion. In 1985, Balazs and others suggested that the term hyaluronan be used to unify the name of the substance on the grounds that the substance is essentially a carbohydrate and should be named according to the naming rules of glycosaminoglycan. "Hyaluronan" has been widely used to cover any state of hyaluronic acid and its salt (hyaluronate), usually translated as "hyaluronic acid", abbreviated as HA. At present, HA products are usually referred to as "Sodium Hyaluronate Injection", and the HA product is called sodium hyaluronate gel. As early as the late 1970s, the Uni...

Advancing Eye Surgery with Hyaluronic Acid

Image
The eyes are extremely complex objects within the human body, and therefore eye surgeries are very difficult to perform; hyaluronic acid helps to make the process a lot easier. Your eyes require a very specific set of circumstances to operate at optimal capacity. For example, they need to be lubricated all the time to be able to turn around quickly and efficiently. They also need to be filled with a liquid to maintain an optimal internal environment. Hyaluronic acid is responsible for a lot of this - without hyaluronic acid, everything starts to break down. Hyaluronic acid is the main lubricant and a very important component of the jelly-like substance within the eye. Due to its natural uses in maintaining proper eye functionality, HA is being used to improve eye surgery outcomes. The eyes contain even more hyaluronic acid than your joints, which signifies that the compound has a heavy role to play in their normal functioning. Experts have researched the effects of using a variety...
