Abstract
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) is one of the major metabolites of curcumin (CUR), an ancient bioactive natural polyphenolic compound. This research article describes both the solid and liquid state characterization of THC using advanced spectroscopic and thermo-analytical techniques. Anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and neuroprotective activities of THC were investigated using in vitro cell lines. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis revealed that our sample comprised 95.15% THC, 0.51% tetrahydrodemethoxycurcumin (THDC), 3.40% hexahydrocurcumin, and 0.94% octahydrocurcumin. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis indicated the presence of 96.68% THC and 3.32% THDC. THC in solution existed as keto-enol tautomers in three different forms at different retention time, but the enol form was found to be dominant, which was also supported by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. THC was thermally stable up to 335.55 °C. THC exhibited more suppression of cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, and MIP-1α) than CUR in a concentration-dependent manner in mouse splenocytes, while NK-cell and phagocytosis activity was increased in macrophages. THC showed a significant reduction of free radicals (LPO) along with improved antioxidant enzymes (SOD and catalase) and increased free radical scavenging activity against ABTS+ radicals in HepG2 cells. THC displayed higher protection capability than CUR from oxidative stress and neuronal damage by improving cell viability against H2O2 induced HepG2 cells and MPP+ induced SH-SY5Y cells, respectively, in a concentration-dependent manner. Thus, a variation of the biological activities of THC might rely on its keto-enol form and the presence of other THC analogs as impurities. The present study could be advantageous for further research on THC for better understanding its physicochemical properties and biological variation. Solid and liquid state characterization of THC using advanced analytical techniques. THC existed in 3 different forms viz. one keto form, two enol forms in solution. THC was found to be thermally more stable than curcumin. THC exhibited significant suppression of proinflammatory cytokines, increased NK cells and phagocytosis activities. THC showed higher total anti-oxidant activity and neuroprotective activity than curcumin.

Abstract
Curcumin (CURC) is a hydrophobic molecule and its water solubility can be greatly improved by liposome encapsulation. However, investigations on the stability of pH-sensitive molecules incorporated into liposomal membranes are limited. In this study, CURC-loaded liposomes with varied internal pH values (pH 2.5, 5.0, or 7.4) were prepared and designated as CURC-LP (pH 2.5), CURC-LP (pH 5.0), and CURC-LP (pH 7.4). Physical properties including particle size, ζ-potential, morphology, entrapment efficiency, and physical stabilities of these CURC-LPs were assessed. In addition, the chemical stability of liposomal CURC to different external physiological environments and internal microenvironmental pH levels were investigated. We found that among these CURC-LPs, CURU-LP (pH 2.5) has the highest entrapment efficiency (73.7%), the best physical stabilities, and the slowest release rate in vitro. Liposomal CURC remains more stable in an acid external environment. In the physiological environment, the chemical stability of liposomal CURC is microenvironmental pH-dependent. In conclusion, we prove that the stability of liposomal CURC is external physiological environment- and internal microenvironmental pH-dependent. These findings suggest that creating an acidic microenvironment in the internal chamber of liposomes is beneficial to the stability of liposomal CURC, as well as for other pH-sensitive molecules.

Abstract
Curcumin ((1,7-bis-(4-hidroxi-3-metoxifenil)-1,6-heptadieno-3,5-diona)), is a natural yellow-orange polyphenol dye, obtained from Curcuma longa rhizomes, with vast potential in the biotechnology field, such as anti - inflammatory and cancer preventive properties, and a very environmental-sensible structure, mostly resulting in aggregate formations, with low solubility in aqueous solvents and remarkable pH dependence. Hence, it is essential to comprehend its aggregation mechanisms, optical properties and conformational equilibrium to develop curcumin-based drugs and biomaterials for several applications. With the purpose of understand such concepts and its properties, the results presented in this work, obtained through spectroscopic measurements and the Hill's modeling, show a conformational equilibrium, driven by pH, between the enol-enolate and aggregated forms in curcumin, and the respective energy transfer processes between these species. Additionally, the photophysical mechanisms for the energy transfer between aggregated forms, observed with the ellipsometry measurements, showed an "all-or-nothing" character, pointing to a very complex conformation for curcumin aggregates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The photosensitivity reaction which appears after a Photodynamic therapy treatment session is a challenge that needs further investigation. The goal of this research is to evaluate the possibility of using saffron to reduce or control this photosensitivity reaction and to present mathematical modeling of the cell survival curves and their dependency on saffron concentration. METHODS Red blood cells (RBC) and Staphylococcus aureus Bacteria (STB) were used as targets in this study. The Photosensitivity of Rose Bengali, Methylene Blue, and Photofrin independently and incorporated with saffron was investigated for continued irradiation at different Saffron concentrations. Gompertz's function was used to fit the survival curve parameters. The 50% cell survival rate was fit to an empirical formula based on Saffron concentrations. RESULTS Saffron inhibits the photosensitivity reaction of the three photosensitizers and causes a significant increase in the 50% survival rate time (t50) for RBC`s and STB. Saffron didn't show phototoxicity when incubated alone with RBC`s and STB. The survival curve parameters of the RBCs and STB showed a good fit to the Gompertz function. Saffron concentration is related to the RBC`s t50 based on power dependency of 0.56, 0.38 and 0.31 for Photofrin, Methylene Blue and Rose Bengali respectively and 0.1 on STB for Rose Bengali. CONCLUSION Saffron can efficiently be used to reduce the photosensitivity reaction of Photosensitizers after a PDT treatment session. Gompertz function was found to be an appropriate mathematical model for survival rate curves. The t50 and the saffron concentration are well related through a power dependence empirical formula.

Abstract
Polymer micelles are an attractive means to solubilize water insoluble compounds such as drugs. Drug loading, formulations stability and control over drug release are crucial factors for drug-loaded polymer micelles. The interactions between the polymeric host and the guest molecules are considered critical to control these factors but typically barely understood. Here, we compare two isomeric polymer micelles, one of which enables ultra-high curcumin loading exceeding 50 wt.%, while the other allows a drug loading of only 25 wt.%. In the low capacity micelles, steady-state fluorescence revealed a very unusual feature of curcumin fluorescence, a high energy emission at 510 nm. Time-resolved fluorescence upconversion showed that the fluorescence life time of the corresponding species is too short in the high-capacity micelles, preventing an observable emission in steady-state. Therefore, contrary to common perception, stronger interactions between host and guest can be detrimental to the drug loading in polymer micelles.

Abstract
Turmeric, a popular ingredient in the cuisine of many Asian countries, comes from the roots of the Curcuma longa and is known for its use in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Turmeric is rich in curcuminoids, including curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin. Curcuminoids have potent wound healing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic activities. While curcuminoids have been studied for many years, not much is known about their effects on steroid metabolism. Since many anti-cancer drugs target enzymes from the steroidogenic pathway, we tested the effect of curcuminoids on cytochrome P450 CYP17A1, CYP21A2, and CYP19A1 enzyme activities. When using 10 µg/mL of curcuminoids, both the 17α-hydroxylase as well as 17,20 lyase activities of CYP17A1 were reduced significantly. On the other hand, only a mild reduction in CYP21A2 activity was observed. Furthermore, CYP19A1 activity was also reduced up to ~20% of control when using 1–100 µg/mL of curcuminoids in a dose-dependent manner. Molecular docking studies confirmed that curcumin could dock onto the active sites of CYP17A1, CYP19A1, as well as CYP21A2. In CYP17A1 and CYP19A1, curcumin docked within 2.5 Å of central heme while in CYP21A2 the distance from heme was 3.4 Å, which is still in the same range or lower than distances of bound steroid substrates. These studies suggest that curcuminoids may cause inhibition of steroid metabolism, especially at higher dosages. Also, the recent popularity of turmeric powder as a dilatory supplement needs further evaluation for the effect of curcuminoids on steroid metabolism. The molecular structure of curcuminoids could be modified to generate better lead compounds with inhibitory effects on CYP17A1 and CYP19A1 for potential drugs against prostate cancer and breast cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neuroinflammatory disease is a general term used to denote the progressive loss of neuronal function or structure. Many neuroinflammatory diseases, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and multiple sclerosis (MS), occur due to neuroinflammation. Neuroinflammation increases nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) levels, cyclooxygenase-2 enzymes and inducible nitric oxide synthase, resulting in the release of inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). It could also lead to cellular deterioration and symptoms of neuroinflammatory diseases. Recent studies have suggested that curcumin (the active ingredient in turmeric) could alleviate the process of neuroinflammatory disease. Thus, the present mini-review was conducted to summarize studies regarding cellular and molecular targets of curcumin relevant to neuroinflammatory disorders. METHODS A literature search strategy was conducted for all English-language literature. Studies that assessed the various properties of curcuminoids in respect of neuroinflammatory disorders were included in this review. RESULTS The studies have suggested that curcuminoids have significant anti- neuroinflammatory, antioxidant and neuroprotective properties that could attenuate the development and symptom of neuroinflammatory disorders. Curcumin can alleviate neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation through multiple mechanisms, by reducing inflammatory mediators (such as TNF-α, IL-1β, nitric oxide and NF-κB gene expression), and affect mitochondrial dynamics and even epigenetic changes. CONCLUSION It is a promising subject of study in the prevention and management of the neuroinflammatory disease. However, controlled, randomized clinical trials are needed to fully evaluate its clinical potential.

Abstract
Turmeric is a curry spice that originated from India, which has attracted great interest in recent decades because it contains bioactive curcuminoids (curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin). Curcumin (1,7-bis-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-hepta-1,6-diene-3,5-dione), a lipophilic polyphenol may work as an anticancer, antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging agent as suggested by several in vitro, in vivo studies and clinical trials. However, poor aqueous solubility, bioavailability, and pharmacokinetic profiles limit curcumin’s therapeutic usage. To address these issues, several curcumin formulations have been developed. However, suboptimal sample preparation and analysis methodologies often hamper the accurate evaluation of bioactivities and their clinical efficacy. This review summarizes recent research on biological, pharmaceutical, and analytical aspects of the curcumin. Various formulation techniques and corresponding clinical trials and in vivo outcomes are discussed. A detailed comparison of different sample preparation (ultrasonic, pressurized liquid extraction, microwave, reflux) and analytical (FT-IR, FT-NIR, FT-Raman, UV, NMR, HPTLC, HPLC, and LC-MS/MS) methodologies used for the extraction and quantification of curcuminoids in different matrices, is presented. Application of optimal sample preparation, chromatographic separation, and detection methodologies will significantly improve the assessment of different formulations and biological activities of curcuminoids.

Abstract
The current age of dynamic development of the space industry brings the mankind closer to routine manned space flights and space tourism. This progress leads to a demand for intensive astrobiological research aimed at improving strategies of the pharmacological protection of the human cells against extreme conditions. Although routine research in space remains out of our reach, it is worth noticing that the unique severe environment of the Earth's stratosphere has been found to mimic subcosmic conditions, giving rise to the opportunity to use the stratospheric surface as a research model for the astrobiological studies. Our study included launching into the stratosphere a balloon containing mammalian normal and cancer cells treated with various compounds to examine whether these substances are capable of protecting the cells against stress caused by rapidly varying temperature, pressure, and radiation, especially UV. Owing to oxidative stress caused by irradiation and temperature shock, we used natural compounds which display antioxidant properties, namely, catechin isolated from green tea, honokiol derived from magnolia, curcumin from turmeric, and cinnamon extract. "After-flight" laboratory tests have shown the most active antioxidants as potential agents which can minimize harmful impact of extreme conditions on human cells.

Abstract
AIMS The naturally occurring compound curcumin has been proposed for a number of pharmacological applications. In spite of the promising chemotherapeutic properties of the molecule, the use of curcumin has been largely limited by its chemical instability in water. In this work, we propose the use of water soluble proteins to overcome this issue in perspective applications to photodynamic therapy of tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Curcumin was bound to bovine serum albumin and its photophysical properties was studied as well as its effect on cell viability after light exposure through MTT assay and confocal imaging. KEY FINDINGS Bovine serum albumin binds curcumin with moderate affinity and solubilizes the hydrophobic compound preserving its photophysical properties for several hours. Cell viability assays demonstrate that when bound to serum albumin, curcumin is an effective photosensitizer for HeLa cells, with better performance than curcumin alone. Confocal fluorescence imaging reveals that when curcumin is delivered alone, it preferentially associates with mitochondria, whereas curcumin bound to bovine serum albumin is found in additional locations within the cell, a fact that may be related to the higher phototoxicity observed in this case. SIGNIFICANCE The higher bioavailability of the photosensitizing compound curcumin when bound to serum albumin may be exploited to increase the efficiency of the drug in photodynamic therapy of tumors.

Abstract
Two novel zinc(II) compounds with curcuminate (abbreviated as cur-), [Zn(CH3COO)(cur)(bpy)](1)·CH3OH·2H2O (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) and [Zn(PhCOO)(cur)(bpy)] (2)·CH3OH, have been synthesized and characterized. Their composition has been determined by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. Complexes 1 and 2 are similar: in both a five-fold coordination environment of zinc(II) consists of a monodentate carboxylate, a chelating bidentate 2,2'-bipyridine, and curcuminate, which is bound via a deprotonated 1,3-dione moiety. In 1, 2,2'-bipyridine nitrogen atoms and curcuminate oxygen atoms form the base of a square pyramid, whereas the acetate oxygen occupies its apex. The O3N2 donor set in 2 defines a polyhedron which more closely resembles a trigonal bipyramid. The packing in the crystal lattices of both compounds is governed by hydrogen-bonds. Complexes 1 and 2 display higher stability than curcumin in buffered media at pH = 7.0, however, the degradation of coordinated cur- is comparable to that of yellow pigment curcumin (curH) when the pH is raised to 7.2. Both complexes 1 and 2 in DMSO exhibit fluorescence with Stokes shifts of 5367 and 4634 cm-1, respectively.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus are multiresistant pathogens that causes superficial and systemic infections. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (APDT) is an alternative in the treatment of diseases caused by these bacteria. Aim: In this study the APDT response on growth, viability, formation of reactive oxygen species and adhesion of methicillin-sensitive strains of Staphylococcus aureus, strains of methicillin-resistant S. aureus and American-type culture collection (ATCC) of S. aureus were evaluated in vitro, after incubation with curcumin for 20 min, and irradiated with LED. Materials & methods: Bacterial growth was assessed by the number of colony-forming units, viability and adhesion were evaluated by confocal microscopy and ROS quantification was performed by fluorimetry. Results: Was observed increase in the production of ROS in APDT groups, besides a decrease in the 4 log growth and loss of the bacterial adhesion. Conclusion: APDT with Curcumin may be an interesting therapeutic alternative, due to its in vitro response, in the control multiresistant clinical S. aureus strains.

Abstract
New multichromophoric complexes based on metallocomplexes of meso-tetraphenylporphyrins chemically conjugated with curcumins and para-terphenyls have been synthesized. Four bands appeared in the luminescence spectrum were assigned. Two first bands in the spectrum at 465 and 497 nm correspond to the luminescence of curcumin, and the bands at 619 and 677 nm belong to the luminescence of the meso-substituted metallocomplex of porphyrin. Similar spectral data are manifested in the fluorescence spectra of a complex with four para-terphenyl substituents. For the last one compound the energy transfer between the molecules of the para-terphenyl and metalloporphyrin was postulated with the efficiency of about 20%.

Abstract
We present a combined theoretical and experimental study on the UV-vis spectra of enol-keto (EK) and keto-keto (KK) tautomeric forms of curcumin dissolved in aqueous solution. Solvent effects have been investigated by resorting to the implicit polarizable continuum model (QM/PCM) and non-polarizable and fully polarizable QM/MM approaches, the latter based on the fluctuating charges (FQ) force-field. In particular, all methods are challenged to rationalize the contribution of conformational, electrostatic and polarization effects in the calculation of the vertical excitation spectra of curcumin tautomers. The obtained results highlight that for both tautomers specific solute-solvent hydrogen-bond interactions play a minor role with respect to conformational and electrostatic effects.

Abstract
An objective of the present study was to prepare colon-specific microspheres of curcumin (CUR) containing ascorbic acid (AA) for improved oral bioavailability. 32 factorial design was used to optimise chitosan microspheres (CSMS) containing CUR and AA. Subsequently, optimised CSMS were coated with Eudragit S-100, for delivery to colon. In vitro drug release, in vivo pharmacokinetics, and organ distribution studies were performed in Albino Wistar rats. Stabilisation of CUR in alkaline pH was successfully guarded by AA to the extent 98.5-100%. Results revealed complete amorphisation/molecular dispersion of CUR. Bioavailability enhancement of CUR and 90% of MS in colon at the end of 8 h in animals, deciphered successful design of colon-specific CUR MS. It can be concluded that AA in MS shielded the degradation of CUR. The developed double coat MS could be considered as a promising colon-targeted system for CUR aiming bioavailability enhancements.

Abstract
Curcumin is a natural product with a broad spectrum of beneficial properties relating to pharmaceutical applications, extending from traditional remedies to modern cosmetics. The biological activity of such pigments, however, is limited by their solubility and bioavailability, thereby necessitating new ways of achieving optimal tissue cellular response and efficacy as drugs. Metal ion complexation provides a significant route toward improvement of curcumin stability and biological activity, with vanadium being a representative such metal ion, amply encountered in biological systems and exhibiting exogenous bioactivity through potential pharmaceuticals. Driven by the need to optimally increase curcumin bioavailability and bioactivity through complexation, synthetic efforts were launched to seek out stable species, ultimately leading to the synthesis and isolation of a new ternary V(IV)-curcumin-(2,2'-bipyridine) complex. Physicochemical characterization (elemental analysis, FT-IR, Thermogravimetry (TGA), UV-Visible, NMR, ESI-MS, Fluorescence, X-rays) portrayed the solid-state and solution properties of the ternary complex. Pulsed-EPR spectroscopy, in frozen solutions, suggested the presence of two species, cis- and trans-conformers. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations revealed the salient features and energetics of the two conformers, thereby complementing EPR spectroscopy. The well-described profile of the vanadium species led to its in vitro biological investigation involving toxicity, cell metabolism inhibition in S. cerevisiae cultures, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS)-suppressing capacity, lipid peroxidation, and plasmid DNA degradation. A multitude of bio-assays and methodologies, in comparison to free curcumin, showed that it exhibits its antioxidant potential in a concentration-dependent fashion, thereby formulating a bioreactivity profile supporting development of new efficient vanado-pharmaceuticals, targeting (extra)intra-cellular processes under (patho)physiological conditions.

Abstract
Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) is an opportunistic infection in human skin that causes acne vulgaris. Antibiotic agents provide the effective eradication of microbes until the development of drug-resistant microbes. Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is a non-antibiotic therapy for microbial eradication. In this study, the visible blue light (BL, λmax = 462 nm) was used to enhance the antimicrobial activities of curcumin, a natural phenolic compound. Individual exposure to curcumin or BL irradiation does not generate cytotoxicity on P. acnes. The viability of P. acnes was decreased significantly in 0.09 J/cm2 BL with 1.52 μM of curcumin. Furthermore, the low-dose blue light irradiation triggers a series of cytotoxic actions of curcumin on P. acnes. The lethal factors of photolytic curcumin were investigated based on the morphology of P. acnes by SEM and fluorescent images. The membrane disruption of microbes was observed on the PDI against P. acnes. Chromatography and mass spectrometry techniques were also used to identify the photolytic metabolites. Curcumin could be photolysed into vanillin through BL irradiation, which presents a strong linear relationship in quantitation. Because the safety of blue light in mammalian cell has been proven, the photolytic curcumin treatment could support non-antibiotic therapy to eradicate P. acnes on clinical dermatology.

Abstract
Conjugation of curcumin and gold with green chemistry is an approach to improve the effectiveness of curcumin as anti-fibrosis. In this work, curcumin and gold were conjugated to deliver curcumin to the liver. Curcumin-gold nanoparticles (cAuNPs) were prepared by varying curcumin pH and concentration. The successful of cAuNPs formation were identified by using UV-visible and FTIR spectrophotometers. The particle size and morphology were analyzed using particle size analyzer and cryo-TEM respectively. In vitro antioxidant assay was performed to determine the curcumin activity after conjugation. Physical and chemical stabilities of cAuNPs were studied for one month at 5 °C, 25 °C, and 40 °C. Furthermore, the cAuNPs activity to modulate early marker of fibrosis was tested on NIH/3T3 cells. The optimum condition for cAuNPs synthesis was by using 1.5 mM curcumin at pH 9.3. As compared to free curcumin, cAuNPs showed higher antioxidant activity and maintained the nanosize after stored for one month. In line with the antioxidant activity, cAuNPs 0.25–1 μg/mL reduced the collagen production by NIH/3T3 cells. More importantly, cAuNPs did not demonstrate any effect on the development of chicken embryo. Taken together, the attachment of gold to curcumin in the form of cAuNPs is promising for curcumin targeting to treat hepatic fibrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pathological pain conditions can be triggered after peripheral nerve injury and/or inflammation. It is a major clinical problem that is poorly treated with available therapeutics. Curcumin is a phenolic compound derived from Curcuma longa, being widely used for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. PURPOSE This review systematically summarized updated information on the traditional uses of curcumin in order to explore antinociceptive effects in pathological pain and evaluate future therapeutic opportunities clinically. Moreover, some structure-activity relationships would greatly enrich the opportunity of finding new and promising lead compounds and promote the reasonable development of curcumin. METHODS PubMed were searched and the literature from the year 1976 to January 2018 was retrieved using keywords pain and curcumin. RESULTS This review systematically summarized updated information on the traditional uses, chemical constituents and bioactivities of curcumin, and highlights the recent development of the mechanisms of curcumin in the pathological pain by sciatic nerve injury, spinal cord injury, diabetic neuropathy, alcoholic neuropathy, chemotherapy induced peripheral neuroinflammtion, complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) injection or carrageenan injection. Importantly, the clinical studies provide a compelling justification for its use as a dietary adjunct for pain relief. And we also present multiple approaches to improve bioavailability of curcumin for the treatment of pathological pain. CONCLUSION This review focuses on pre-clinical and clinical studies in the treatment of pathological pain. Although the mechanisms of pain mitigating effects are not very clear, there is compelling evidence proved that curcumin plays an essential role. However, further high-quality clinical studies should be undertaken to establish the clinical effectiveness of curcumin in patients suffering from pathological pain. Potential methods of increase the water solubility and bioavailability of curcumin still need to be studied. These approaches will help in establishing it as remedy for pathological pain.

Abstract
Curcumin (diferuloylmethane) is a natural bioactive compound with many health-promoting benefits. However, its poor water solubility and bioavailability has limited curcumin’s biomedical application. In the present study, we encapsulated curcumin into liposomes, formed from natural sources (salmon lecithin), and characterized its encapsulation efficiency and release profile. The proposed natural carriers increased the solubility and the bioavailability of curcumin. In addition, various physico-chemical properties of the developed soft nanocarriers with and without curcumin were studied. Nanoliposome-encapsulated curcumin increased the viability and network formation in the culture of primary cortical neurons and decreased the rate of apoptosis.

Abstract
Curcumin isoxazole (CI) and Curcumin pyrazole (CP), the diketo modified derivatives of Curcumin (CU) are metabolically more stable and are being explored for pharmacological properties. One of the requirements in such activities is their interaction with circulatory proteins like human serum albumin (HSA). To understand this, the interactions of CI and CP with HSA have been investigated employing absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy and the results are compared with that of CU. The respective binding constants of CP, CI and CU with HSA were estimated to be 9.3×105, 8.4×105 and 2.5×105M-1, which decreased with increasing salt concentration in the medium. The extent of decrease in the binding constant was the highest in CP followed by CI and CU. This revealed that along with hydrophobic interaction other binding modes like electrostatic interactions operate between CP/CI/CU with HSA. Fluorescence quenching studies of HSA with these compounds suggested that both static and dynamic quenching mechanisms operate, where the contribution of static quenching is higher for CP and CI than that for CU. From fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies, the binding site of CU, CI and CP was found to be in domain IIA of HSA. CU was found to bind in closer proximity with Trp214 as compared to CI and CP and the same was responsible for efficient energy transfer and the same was also established by fluorescence anisotropy measurements. Furthermore docking simulation complemented the experimental observation, where both electrostatic as well as hydrophobic interactions were indicated between HSA and CP, CI and CU. This study is useful in designing more stable CU derivatives having suitable binding properties with proteins like HSA.

Abstract
Curcumin is an antimalarial compound easy to obtain and inexpensive, having shown little toxicity across a diverse population. However, the clinical use of this interesting polyphenol has been hampered by its poor oral absorption, extremely low aqueous solubility and rapid metabolism. In this study, we have used the anionic copolymer Eudragit® S100 to assemble liposomes incorporating curcumin and containing either hyaluronan (Eudragit-hyaluronan liposomes) or the water-soluble dextrin Nutriose® FM06 (Eudragit-nutriosomes). Upon oral administration of the rehydrated freeze-dried nanosystems administered at 25/75 mg curcumin·kg−1·day−1, only Eudragit-nutriosomes improved the in vivo antimalarial activity of curcumin in a dose-dependent manner, by enhancing the survival of all Plasmodium yoelii-infected mice up to 11/11 days, as compared to 6/7 days upon administration of an equal dose of the free compound. On the other hand, animals treated with curcumin incorporated in Eudragit-hyaluronan liposomes did not live longer than the controls, a result consistent with the lower stability of this formulation after reconstitution. Polymer-lipid nanovesicles hold promise for their development into systems for the oral delivery of curcumin-based antimalarial therapies.

Abstract
In the past few years, the World Health Organization has been warning that the post-antibiotic era is an increasingly real threat. The rising and disseminated resistance to antibiotics made mandatory the search for new drugs and/or alternative therapies that are able to eliminate resistant microorganisms and impair the development of new forms of resistance. In this context, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) and helical cationic antimicrobial peptides (AMP) are highlighted for the treatment of localized infections. This study aimed to combine the AMP aurein 1.2 to aPDT using Enterococcus faecalis as a model strain. Our results demonstrate that the combination of aPDT with aurein 1.2 proved to be a feasible alternative capable of completely eliminating E. faecalis employing low concentrations of both PS and AMP, in comparison with the individual therapies. Aurein 1.2 is capable of enhancing the aPDT activity whenever mediated by methylene blue or chlorin-e6, but not by curcumin, revealing a PS-dependent mechanism. The combined treatment was also effective against different strains; noteworthy, it completely eliminated a vancomycin-resistant strain of Enterococcus faecium. Our results suggest that this combined protocol must be exploited for clinical applications in localized infections as an alternative to antibiotics.
