As curcumin has remarkable anti-inflammatory actions, the aim of this work is to review the potential use of this compound in IBD patients. We consulted MEDLINE (PubMed\/PMC), and the literature search was performed with the following combinations of terms \u201cInflammatory Bowel Diseases\u201d and \u201cCurcumin,\u201d \u201cCrohn's Disease\u201d and \u201cCurcumin,\u201d \u201cUlcerative colitis\u201d and \u201cCurcumin.\u201d The inclusion criteria were articles that showed original studies with human models and the exclusion criteria were not full-text articles, articles not in English, poster presentations, letters, editorials, and articles not available. Curcumin interacts with receptors, growth and transcription factors, cytokines, enzymes, and genes leading to inhibitory effects on cyclooxygenase-1, tumor necrosis factor-\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\n                    , interferon-\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">\u03b3<\/jats:italic>\n                    , inducible nitric oxide synthase, transcriptional nuclear factor kappa B, and many other molecules associated with inflammatory processes. These molecules are critical factors in the positive regulation of inflammatory cytokines in inflammatory diseases, suggesting that curcumin may be considered as a new therapeutic agent for patients with IBD. Curcumin is a natural anti-inflammatory agent that represents an attractive, safe and inexpensive alternative for the treatment of IBD. Nevertheless, it is necessary to know the efficient and safe dose and consider its poor absorption.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/jmf.2017.0146","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,29]],"date-time":"2018-06-29T11:03:14Z","timestamp":1530270194000},"page":"1077-1085","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["Is Curcumin a Possibility to Treat Inflammatory Bowel Diseases?"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Rafaela","family":"Mazieiro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical School of Mar\u00edlia, UNIMAR, Mar\u00edlia","place":["Brazil"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Renata Reis","family":"Frizon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical School of Mar\u00edlia, UNIMAR, Mar\u00edlia","place":["Brazil"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandra Maria","family":"Barbalho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical School of Mar\u00edlia, UNIMAR, Mar\u00edlia","place":["Brazil"]},{"name":"Food Technology School","place":["Brazil"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ricardo de Alvares","family":"Goulart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital","place":["Brazil"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1753425917722206"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5217\/ir.2017.15.4.434"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/gene.2015.52"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.crohns.2013.01.010"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(17)32448-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MIB.0000000000001217"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2011.01.055"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_3_2_9_2","first-page":"S296","article-title":"Curcumin half analog modulates interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in inflammatory bowel disease","volume":"11","author":"Kondamudi PK","year":"2015","unstructured":"Kondamudi PK, , Kovelamudi H, , Nayak PG, et al.: Curcumin half analog modulates interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in inflammatory bowel disease.
