Description

Demethoxycurcumin(Curcumin II) is a major active curcuminoid; possess anti-inflammatory properties; also exert cytotoxic effects in human cancer cells via induction of apoptosis.IC50 value: Target:in vitro: DMC significantly decreased NO secretion by 35-41% in our inflamed cell model. Decrease in NO production by DMC was concomitant with down-regulation of iNOS at mRNA and protein levels compared to proinflammatory cytokine cocktail and LPS-treated controls. Mechanism of action of DMC ma


Solid


Demethoxycurcumin is a beta-diketone that is curcumin in which one of the methoxy groups is replaced by hydrogen. It is found in Curcuma zedoaria and Etlingera elatior. It has a role as a metabolite, an antineoplastic agent and an anti-inflammatory agent. It is a polyphenol, a beta-diketone, an enone and a diarylheptanoid.

Demethoxycurcumin Use and Manufacturing

Demethoxycurcumin (DMC) is a natural demethoxy derivative of curcumin. More stable than curcumin in physiological media, DMC suppresses proliferation in cancer cells at 50-100 μM. It down-regulates the transcriptional coactivator p300, suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, and inhibits lipopolysaccharide induction of iNOS.
