-A '''curcuminoid''' is a [[curcumin]] or a [[derivative (chemistry)|derivative]] of a curcumin with different [[chemical group]]s that have been formed to increase [[solubility]] of curcumins and make them suitable for [[drug formulation]]. These [[Chemical compound|compound]]s are [[polyphenol]]s and produce a pronounced [[yellow]] color.
-Many [[curcumin]] characters are unsuitable for [[drug design]]. They have poor solubility in [[water]] at [[acid]]ic and [[physiology|physiological]] [[pH]], and also [[hydrolysis|hydrolyze]] rapidly in [[alkali]]ne [[solution]]s. Therefore, curcumin derivatives are [[Chemical synthesis|synthezised]] to increase their solubility and hence [[bioavailability]].<ref name="Tomren">{{cite journal |author=Tomren MA, Másson M, Loftsson T, Tønnesen HH |title=Studies on curcumin and curcuminoids XXXI.

Most common derivatives have different [[substituent]]s on the [[phenyl group]]s.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-There is an increasing demand of late for demethoxycurcumin and (curcuminoids) because of their recently discovered [[biological activity]].<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/>
-== Cyclodextrins ==
-Curcuminoids form a more stable [[complex]]{{dn}} with solutions which contain [[cyclodextrin]] towards hydrolytic degradations. The stability differs between size and characterzation of the cyclodextrins that are used.<ref name="Tomren"/> [[Dissolution (chemistry)|Dissolution]] of demethoxycurcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin and curcumin are greatest in the [http://search.acros.com/_KFPNKUMHFZNBQNKQNHNMPOLQNV_?for=fishermy&search_type=1&sup=fishermy&show_fw=false&from=376&show_bp=true&show_rn=true&bl=25&found=1202&bgcolor=%23ffffff&bgcolor_td=%23EFEFFF&bgcolor_th=%234273CE&face_font=arial&color_font=%23000000&link=%23ffffFF&nlink=%23000000&alink=%23000000&vlink=%2366bbFF&style=white&submitUrlSearch=&bgcolor_th3=%234273CE&border=&show_pict=&show_mp=&show_den=&show_hr= hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin] (HPγCD) cavity. The curcuminoids which have a [[substituent]] connected to the phenyl groups show more affinity for the HPγCD compound. Degradation rate is depended on pH of the solution and how much protection the cyclodextrins provide the curcuminoids. The derivatives are usually more stable than curcumin against hydrolysis in cyclodextrin solution. No [[covalent bond]]s are synthesized between the cyclodextrins and the curcuminoids so they are easily released from the complex.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-== Micelles and nanoparticles ==
-A drug design with curcuminoids in complex with [[micelle]]s could be one solution of the insolubility of the curcuminoids. The curcuminoids would be in complex with the [[core]] of the micelles similar to the complex inside the cyclodextrins. The micelles are dissolved in a suitable [[solvent]] where the headgroups of the micelles interact with the solvent.
-Curcuminoids as [[loaded]] [[solid]] [[lipid]] [[nanoparticles]] (SLN) have been developed with great success by using [[microemulsion]] technique.  The loading capacity, the mean particle size and size distribution are all factors that have to be considered when the effects of curcuminoids in different strength are observed because it could variate.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/> The advantages of SLN are the possibilities of controlled drug release and [[targeted drug delivery|drug targeting]], protection of incorporated [[Chemical compound|compound]] against [[chemical degradation]], no biotoxicity of the [[carrier protein|carrier]], avoidance of organic solvent and no problems with respect to large scale production.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-In vitro studies show a prolonged release of curcuminoids from the nanoparticle preparate up to 12 hours and the curcuminoids maintained their physical and chemical stability after 6 months of storage in the absence of [[light]] at [[room temperature]]. The sensitivity of curcuminoids to light and oxygen is greatly reduced  by [[pharmaceutical formulation|formulation]] of curcuminoids in SLN.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-===SLN for cosmetics===
-SLN preparate has been developed for [[cosmetics]] where the curcuminoids are used in [[Cream (pharmaceutical)|cream]] base. But there are some stability issues which have not been overcome yet, further studies need to be done to find a suitable formulation which can be carried out in order to prolong the stability of the curcuminoids. Nevertheless there have been improvements in formulation of some stable model cream preparations with SLN curcuminoids.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-It is suggested that most of the curcuminoids are incorporated at the SLN surface where they are diffused into the cream matrix until a [[steady state]] is reached. At this state the curcuminoids go from the cream to the dissolution medium. A possible burst release in creams containing curcuminoids have been reported where the curcuminoids are rapidly released in a sufficient amount from the cream into the skin and is followed by a controlled release.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-When SLN are prepared by microemulsion at a temperature with the range of 70-75[[celsius|°C]] an [[emulsion|oil-in-water]] microemulsion is spontaneously formed. The SLN are obtained immediately when they are [[scatter|dispersed]] in the warm microemulsion into cold water, with the help of a [[homogenizer]]. The cold water facilitates a rapid [[crystallization]] of the lipids and therefore prevents [[particle aggregation|aggregation]] of the lipids. After [[freeze drying]] the yellow curcuminoids containing SLN were obtained and could easily be redispersed in water and the model cream. The SLN have uniform distribution and according to [[electron]] [[micrograph]] [[scan]] they had a [[sphere|spherical]] [[shape]] and smooth [[surface]].<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-It has been reported that increasing the lipid content over 5-10%(w/w) increased the mean particle size and broader size distribution in most common cases. That range should there for be ideal [[concentration]] for formulation of the SLN.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-===Incorporation and formulation===
-[[Incorporation (linguistics)|Incorporation]] is one thing that needs to be considered in formulation of SLN. Concentration of the lipid, [[emulsion|emulsifier]] and [[emulsion|co-emulsifier]] solution is a key factor on this [[Conversion (chemistry)|conversio]]n of the SLN. If the amount of emulsifier and co-emulsifier are increased but the lipid amount is constant the surface of the SLN which is formed will be too small to [[adsorption|adsorb]] all the surfactant and co-surfactant molecules, and a formation of curcuminoids solution micelles will be created. This will then increase the water solubility of the curcuminoids and they could [[Liquid-liquid extraction|partition]] from the SLN into the micelles that were formed during a wash procedure. This will reduce the final incorporation efficacy on the surface of the SLN.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
-== Anti-oxidant activity ==
-The curcumin derivatives demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin have, like curcumin itself been tested for their [[antioxidant]] activities [[in vitro]].<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/> Antioxidants can be used to extend the [[shelf life]] for food and maintain their safety, [[nutrition]]al quality, [http://www.thefreedictionary.com/functionality functionality] and [http://www.thefreedictionary.com/palatability palatability].<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/> Pure chemicals of curcumin and its derivatives are not available in the open market. [http://www.thefreedictionary.com/commercial Commercial] curcumin contains 77% curcumin, 17% demethoxycurcumin and 3% bisdemethoxycurcumin from the [[herb]] [[turmeric|Curcuma longa]]. Curcumin is mainly produced in [[industry]] as [[pigment]] by using [[turmeric]] [[oleoresin]] as the starting [[material]] which curcuminoids can be isolated from. After  the isolation of the curcuminoids, the [[extract]] which is about 75% [[liquor]] mainly contains [[oil]], [[resin]] and more curcuminoids which can be isolated further. This isolation method was used to demonstrate the antioxidant activities of curcuminoids, where they isolated pure curcuminoids from the main liquor.<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/> One [[research]] reported that curcumin was the strongest antioxidant, demethoxycurcumin the second strongest and bisdemethoxycurcumin the least [[effectiveness|effective]]. Curcuminoids nevertheless showed activity against [[oxidation]]. Curcuminoids act as a [[superoxide]] [[Radical (chemistry)|radical]] [http://www.thefreedictionary.com/scavenger scavenger] as well as [[Singlet oxygen|singlet]] [[oxygen]] [[quench]]er and gives the antioxidant its effectiveness.<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/> Of the naturally accruing curcuminoids, one of the main [[metabolite]]s of curcumin,  [http://ctd.mdibl.org/detail.go?type=chem&acc=C096277&queryTerms=tetrahydrocurcumin&queryType=contains&browser=r tetrahydrocurcumin] is the most potent antioxidant.<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/> The curcuminoids are capable of inhibiting damage to [[DNA supercoil|super coiled]] [[plasmid]] [[DNA]] by [[hydroxyl radical]]s. It was concluded that the derivatives of curcumin are good in trapping the [http://ctd.mdibl.org/detail.go?type=chem&acc=C004931&queryTerms=dpph&queryType=contains 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryhydrazyl](DPPH) radical as efficiently as curcumin which is a well known antioxidant.<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/>
-== Anti-inflammatory activity ==
-[[Anti-inflammatory]] effects of curcumin and its derivatives are because of the [[hydroxyl]] and phenol groups in the [[molecule]]s. These groups are essential for inhibition of [[prostaglandin]] synthetase and [[leukotriene]]s synthesis. A system with [[Conjugated system|conjugated]] [[covalent bond|double bonds]] or [[diene]]s is also believed to be responsible for the anti-inflammatory effect as well as [[antiparasitic]] activity. The diene system seems to make the compounds more [[Lipophilicity|lipophilic]] and therefore provide a better [[skin]] penetration which could be good for that kind of drug preparation.<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/>
-== Chemotherapeutic activity ==
-Studies suggest that the bioavailability of curcumin and possibly its derivatives is greatest in the [[Colon (anatomy)|colon]]. The [[Tissue (biology)|tissue]] in the [[gastrointestinal tract]] seems to be more exposed predominantly to [[metabolism|unmetabolised]] curcumin than other tissues hence they could support [[Clinical trial|clinical studies]] of curcumin as a [[colorectal cancer]] [[preventive medicine|preventive]] agent.<ref name="Jayaprakasha"/> Demethoxycurcumin has recently been tested in colon cancer and it showed more effective inhibitation of [[cell division]] and [[apoptosis]] than curcumin. It is possible that the difference in apoptosis ''in vitro'' is connected to the degradation of the two chemicals and/or their stability.<ref name="Tiyaboonchai"/>
