This dietary supplement has ability to block a number of cells signaling pathways at various levels underlies its diverse effect. By modulating cell cycles and interacting directly to molecular targets like glutathione peroxidase, nuclear factor kappa-B cells, cyclooxygenase-2, hepatic superoxide dismutase, reactive oxygen species tumor necrosis factors etc. curcumin can prevent the development of cancer.
