Core Tip |
This study aimed to elucidate the therapeutic mechanisms of curcumin in gastric cancer (GC). Through network pharmacology, core targets correlating to poor survival in patients with GC were identified, including estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 4 (CYP3A4), mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 (MAPK14), cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 2 (CYP1A2), and cytochrome p450 family 2 subfamily B member 6 (CYP2B6). Molecular docking confirmed the favorable interactions of curcumin with pivotal target genes. In vitro experiments validated the regulatory effects of curcumin on GC cells through these targets. The therapeutic efficacy of curcumin involves multitarget, multipathway, and multibiological processes, offering new insights into its clinical application in GC treatment. |
