Abstract
In a previous study, we observed that some synthetic curcumin analogs inhibited complex formations between Fos–Jun heterodimer and activator protein-1 (AP-1) DNA. These curcumin analogs have been observed to repress the AP-1 transcription in AP-1-transfected cells and they also inhibited the increased expression of Jun/AP-1 protein by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in the same cells. After the AP-1 inhibition by curcumin analogs in TPA-treated HT-1080 human fibrosarcoma cells, a decrease in mRNA expression of c-jun and MMP3 (stromelysin-1) has been observed. We also observed that curcumin analogs down-regulated the expression of MMP-9 (gelatinase-B), correlating with cellular invasion and migration in conditions such as tumor invasion and metastasis, through the electrophoretic mobility shift assay and gelatin zymography methods. Curcumin analogs showed an inhibitory effect on angiogenesis by various test methods including chicken chorioallantoic membrane assay, wound migration assay, invasion assay, and tube formation assay. Through the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction experiment, we confirmed that curcumin analogs down-regulated the expression of angiogenesis-associated genes, VEGF and MMP-9.
