Curcumin is a bright yellow chemical produced by plants of the Curcuma longa species. It is the principal curcuminoid of turmeric (Curcuma longa), a member of the ginger family, Zingiberaceae. It is sold as a herbal supplement, cosmetics ingredient, food flavoring, and food coloring. Chemically, curcumin is a polyphenol, more particularly a diarylheptanoid, belonging to the group of curcuminoids, which are phenolic pigments responsible for the yellow color of turmeric. Laboratory and clinical research have not confirmed any medical use for curcumin. It is difficult to study because it is both unstable and poorly bioavailable. It is unlikely to produce useful leads for drug development as a lead compound.

Roles Classification
Chemical Role(s): antioxidant
A substance that opposes oxidation or inhibits reactions brought about by dioxygen or peroxides.
radical scavenger
A role played by a substance that can react readily with, and thereby eliminate, radicals.
Biological Role(s): EC 1.3.1.8 [acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (NADP(+))] inhibitor
An EC 1.3.1.* (oxidoreductase acting on donor CH-CH group, NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor) inhibitor that interferes with the action of acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (NADP+), EC 1.3.1.8.
EC 1.8.1.12 (trypanothione-disulfide reductase) inhibitor
An EC 1.8.1.* (oxidoreductase acting on sulfur group of donors, NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor) inhibitor that interferes with the action of trypanothione-disulfide reductase (EC 1.8.1.12).
EC 1.13.11.33 (arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase) inhibitor
A lipoxygenase inhibitor that interferes with the action of arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (EC 1.13.11.33).
EC 1.13.11.34 (arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase) inhibitor
A lipoxygenase inhibitor that interferes with the action of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (EC 1.13.11.34).
EC 2.5.1.7 (UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 1-carboxyvinyltransferase) inhibitor
An EC 2.5.1.* (non-methyl-alkyl or aryl transferase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 1-carboxyvinyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.7).
EC 2.7.10.1 (receptor protein-tyrosine kinase) inhibitor
An EC 2.7.10.* (protein-tyrosine kinase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of receptor protein-tyrosine kinase (EC 2.7.10.1).
EC 3.5.4.1 (cytosine deaminase) inhibitor
An EC 3.5.4.* (non-peptide cyclic amidine C-N hydrolase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of cytosine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.1).
EC 5.1.3.2 (UDP-glucose 4-epimerase) inhibitor
An EC 5.1.3.* (racemases acting on carbohydrates and derivatives) inhibitor that interferes with the action of UDP-glucose 4-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.2).
antibacterial agent
A substance (or active part thereof) that kills or slows the growth of bacteria.
EC 3.1.3.25 (inositol-phosphate phosphatase) inhibitor
An EC 3.1.3.* (phosphoric monoester hydrolase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of inositol-phosphate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.25).
apoptosis inducer
Any substance that induces the process of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in multi-celled organisms.
genotoxin
A role played by a chemical compound to induce direct or indirect DNA damage. Such damage can potentially lead to the formation of a malignant tumour, but DNA damage does not lead inevitably to the creation of cancerous cells.
ferroptosis inhibitor
Any substance that inhibits the process of ferroptosis (a type of programmed cell death dependent on iron and characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides) in organisms.
antifungal agent
An antimicrobial agent that destroys fungi by suppressing their ability to grow or reproduce.
EC 3.4.22.69 (SARS coronavirus main proteinase) inhibitor
An EC 3.4.22.* (cysteine endopeptidase) inhibitor that interferes with the action of SARS coronavirus main proteinase (EC 3.4.22.69).
anticoronaviral agent
Any antiviral agent which inhibits the activity of coronaviruses.
Application(s): antineoplastic agent
A substance that inhibits or prevents the proliferation of neoplasms.
neuroprotective agent
Any compound that can be used for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders.
anti-inflammatory drug
A substance that reduces or suppresses inflammation.
hepatoprotective agent
Any compound that is able to prevent damage to the liver.
enzyme mimic
Any small molecule that mimics the action of an enzyme.
