Significance: Curcumin is the major component of turmeric powder. Curcumin has been shown to possess a number of medicinal properties, including anti-cancer property. This study suggests that the curcumin analogue EF24, by suppressing the expression of its target gene, it may decrease the expression of PD-1. Thereby, it may activate the immune system that inhibits tumor development. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing “EF24 or its analogues“  may be used to inhibit the progression of tumors.

Amount: $ 500*
