                    In-vitro Model PC-3 CVCL_0035 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens
DU145 CVCL_0105 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens
LNCaP CVCL_0395 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens
                    Experimental
                    Result(s)
There are synergistic effects of curcumin and bicalutamide. Curcumin inhibits the growth of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells through ERK1/2- and SAPK/JNK-mediated inhibition of p65, followed by reducing expression of MUC1-C protein.
