Toxicity, permeability and drug-metabolizing enzyme activities of curcumin analogues by Yakubu, Ndatsu

“…The results of the apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) in Caco-2 cells after 120 min incubation and their absorption (uptake) rates in adult male zebrafish after 4 hr suggested that MS65>BDMC33>EF-24>curcumin. The activities of drug-metabolizing enzymes (CPR,UGT, GST and SULT) in cells and adult male zebrafish subjected to all test compounds, separately, as compared to that of normal cells and zebrafish demonstrated that MS65 is better than BDMC33, followed by EF-24 and then curcumin. …”
