摘要
由于前列腺疾病本身的特殊性,中草药在前列腺疾病防治中的作用备受关注。姜黄素的药用历史悠久,随着现代医学和分子生物学的发展,其生物应用机制渐趋清晰,具体表现在抗炎、抗氧化、抑制肿瘤发生发展等多方面。姜黄素凭借多元化的生物作用以及很低的毒副作用吸引了大批学者投身于它在前列腺疾病中的研究。本文对姜黄素在前列腺疾病中的研究进行了综述。
The use of turmeric, derived from the root of the plant curcuma longa, for the treatment of various diseases has been described in Ayurveda and in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years. The active component of turmeric responsible for this activity, curcumin, was identified almost two centuries ago. Extensive research over the last decade has indicated that this polyphenol can both prevent and treat prostatic diseases.
