姜黄素药理作用及机制研究进展

Research Progress on Pharmacological Action and Mechanism of Curcumin

姜黄素(Curcumin)属于一类多酚类化合物,其来源为姜黄(属于姜科)的根茎。此物质是姜黄释放自身药理活性的主要成分。药理实验已明确姜黄素可有效抗肿瘤、抗氧化与抗炎等,且毒性小,安全性高,具有高度临床推广价值。现综述姜黄素药理研究进展,希望为其临床应用及进一步研究提供新思路。

Curcumin belongs to a class of polyphenol compounds, and its source is the rhizome of turmeric (belonging to Zingiberaceae). This substance is the main component of turmeric releasing its own pharmacological activity. Pharmacological experiments have confirmed that it can effectively resist tumor, oxidation and anti-inflammatory, with low toxicity and high safety. It has high clinical pro-motion value. This paper reviews the pharmacological research progress of curcumin, hoping to provide new ideas for its clinical application and further research.
