Curcumin
Catalog No. A11620

Curcumin, a natural phenolic compound, functions as a specific inhibitor of the p300/CREB-binding protein histone acetyltransferase. It effectively represses the acetylation of both histone and nonhistone proteins, thereby modulating chromatin transcription. Curcumin exhibits significant biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiproliferative, and antiangiogenic effects, while also inhibiting NF-κB and MAPKs. Additionally, it promotes stabilization of the Nrf2 protein through modification of Keap1 cysteines, making it valuable for research in diverse therapeutic contexts.
