Description:
Background: Green Curmin is a soluble curcumin extract product made in Thailand that has
been reported to reduce gastric inflammation. Inflammatory cytokines including IL-1?, IL-6,
and TNF-? play a crucial role in cancer cell migration, which is a major development towards
poor prognosis. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Green Curmin on colon
cancer cell growth and migration, which involve pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Methods: Curcuma longa L. were extracted and named Green Curmin. The cytotoxicity of the
Green Curmin-treated HCT116-colon cancer cells was obtained by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-
yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry. The effect of the extract
on cancer migration was investigated with a wound-healing assay. In addition, fibroblastassociated cancer migration was confirmed by using the Transwell migration assay. Proinflammatory cytokines were also determined.
Results: Green Curmin had cytotoxicity in the induced-cancer cell apoptosis at concentrations
of 1 and 5 mg/ml. However, reduced colon cancer migration and fibroblast associated-cancer
migration was found at concentrations of 0.05 and 0.1 mg/ml (non-toxicity dose), respectively.
They also suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokines expression including IL-1?, IL-6, and TNF-?
in colon cancer cells and IL-6 in fibroblast cells.
Conclusion: Green Curmin has the potential to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines and
reduce fibroblast associated-cancer migration.
