Ovarian Cancer and Turmeric

 Posted by Chantel Martiromo

Ovarian cancer is defined as a condition of  abnormal ovarian cells growth of ovaries.  It is one of most common cancer in US, according to the statistics adapted from the American Cancer Society's publication, Cancer Facts & Figures 2010, an estimated 21,880 women in the United States will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer, causing 3,850 deaths.
Depending to the stage and grade of the cancer, chemotherapy such as cisplatin, carboplatin, paclitaxel, liposomal doxorubicin may be necessary to prevent the spread and recurrence of the cancer. Epidemiological studies focusing in vegetables and fruits in reduced risk and treatment of ovarian cancer have not been conclusive(a)(b)(c)(d), some foods have showed to inhibit the progression of cancer with little or no side effects.
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia. The herb has been used in trditional medicine as anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
Curcumin, a major chemical compound found in turmeric, inhibited the proliferation of both cisplatin-resistant (CR) and sensitive (CS) human ovarian cancer cells through cell cycle arrest, by enhancing the p53 phosphorylation and apoptosis through the activation of caspase-3 followed by PARP degradation(10). E24, a novel curcumin analog, in platinum-sensitive (IGROV1) and platinum-resistant (SK-OV-3) human ovarian cancer cells, in  time- and dose-dependently suppressed the growth of both cell lines and synergized with cisplatin to induce apoptosis(11). The Dalhousie University study also showed a positive effect of curcumin in inhibition of ovarian cancer cell lines independently to p53 but involves p38 MAPK activation, ablation of prosurvival Akt signaling(role in multiple cellular processes such as glucose metabolism, apoptosis, cell proliferation, transcription and cell migration), and reduced expression of the antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and surviving((baculoviral inhibitor)(12).
