Inhibitory effect of curcumin on oral carcinoma CAL‐27 cells via suppression of Notch‐1 and NF‐κB signaling pathways

Curcumin has been reported to inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis in oral cancer cells. Although many studies have been done to uncover the mechanisms by which curcumin exerts its antitumor activity, the precise molecular mechanisms remain to be unclear. In the present study, we assessed the effects of curcumin on cell viability and apoptosis in oral cancer. For mechanistic studies, we used multiple cellular and molecular approaches such as...
