Anti-infective Properties of the Golden Spice Curcumin
Open accessAbstract
The search for novel anti-infectives is one of the most important challenges in natural product research, as diseases caused by bacteria, viruses and fungi are influencing the human society all over the world. Natural compounds are a continuing source of novel anti-infectives drugs. Accordingly, curcumin, has been used for centuries in Asian traditional medicine to treat various disorders. Numerous studies have shown that curcumin possesses a wide spectrum of biological and pharmacological properties, acting e.g. anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenic and anti-neoplastic, while no toxicity is associated with the compound. Recently, curcumin´s antiviral and antibacterial activity was investigated, and it was shown to act against various important human pathogens like influenza virus, hepatitis C virus, HIV and strains of Staphylococcus, Streptococcus and Pseudomonas. Despite the potency, curcumin has not yet been approved as a therapeutic antiviral agent. This review summarizes the current knowledge and future perspectives of the antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal effects of curcumin.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
