Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the female population because of the resistance of cancer cells to many anticancer drugs used. Curcumin has cytotoxic activities against breast cancer cells, although it has limited use due to its poor bioavailability and rapid metabolic elimination. The synthesis of metal complexes of curcumin and curcuminoids is a relevant topic in the search for more active and selective derivatives of these molecular scaffolds. However, solubility and bioavailability are concomitant disadvantages of these types of molecules. To overcome such drawbacks, the preparation of inclusion complexes offers a chemical and pharmacologically safe option for improving the aqueous solubility of organic molecules. Herein, we describe the preparation of the inclusion complex of dimethoxycurcumin magnesium complex (DiMeOC-Mg, (4)) with beta-cyclodextrin (DiMeOC-Mg-BCD, (5)) in the stoichiometric relationship 1:1. This new inclusion complex's solubility in aqueous media phosphate buffer saline (PBS) was improved by a factor of 6x over the free metal complex (4). Furthermore, 5 affects cell metabolic rate, cell morphology, cell migration, induced apoptosis, and downregulation of the matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3) expression levels on MD Anderson metastasis breast-231 cancer (MDA-MB-231) cell lines. Results of an antitumor assay in an in ovo model showed up to 30% inhibition of tumor growth for breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) when using (5) (0.650 mg/kg dose) and 17.29% inhibition with the free homoleptic metal complex (1.5 mg/kg dose, (4)). While the formulation of inclusion complexes from metal complexes of curcuminoids demonstrates its usefulness in improving the solubility and bioavailability of these metallodrugs, the new compound (5) exhibits excellent potential for use as a therapeutic agent in the battle against breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Gastritis and duodenitis, prevalent diseases of the digestive system, impose a significant global burden. This study aimed to examine their incidence and prevalence patterns worldwide, including changes over the past 30 years. METHODS The age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized prevalence rate (ASPR) of gastritis and duodenitis, stratified by age, sex, geographical region, and sociodemographic index (SDI), were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease 2019. The dynamic trends were captured by calculating the average annual percentage changes (AAPC). RESULTS In 2019, the global ASIR and ASPR of gastritis and duodenitis were 379.88/100 000 (95% uncertainty interval [UI]: 312.42/100 000-448.12/100 000) and 518.11/100 000 (95% UI: 420.62/100 000-631.66/100 000), respectively. The highest rates were observed among the 50-69 age group (ASIR: 856.48/100 000; ASPR: 1158.04/100 000) and in low SDI regions (ASIR: 443.33/100 000; ASPR: 631.22/100 000). From 1990 to 2019, there was a significant decrease in global ASIR (AAPC = -0.34%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.36% to -0.31%) and ASPR (AAPC = -0.34%, 95% CI: -0.37% to -0.31%) of gastritis and duodenitis. However, ASIR (AAPC = 0.47%, 95% CI: 0.42%-0.52%) and ASPR (AAPC = 0.51%, 95% CI: 0.47%-0.52%) of gastritis and duodenitis experienced a significant increase in low SDI regions. CONCLUSIONS Despite a significant decrease in the global incidence and prevalence of gastritis and duodenitis, these conditions continue to impose a burden on individuals aged 50-69 years and low SDI regions. Targeted interventions for those specific populations and regions are necessary.

Abstract
There is growing literature on the positive therapeutic potentials of curcumin. Curcumin or diferuloylmethane is a polyphenol obtained from the plant Curcuma longa. Curcumin has been used widely in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for various conditions. The role of curcumin on thyroid glands has been shown by its effects on various biological pathways, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-proliferative, apoptosis, angiogenesis, cell cycle and metastasis. We reviewed the recent literature on curcumin applications for thyroid dysfunction, including hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, and discussed the molecular mechanisms of these effects. This review aims to summarize the wealth of research related to the thyroid gland therapeutic effect of curcumin.

Abstract
Curcumin (CUR) shows great potential in the management of alcohol-use disorders. However, the hydrophobicity and poor oral bioavailability result in the limited therapeutic efficacy of CUR against alcohol-induced tissue injury. Here, self-assembled Soluplus® micelles (Ms) were developed for the enhanced oral delivery of CUR. CUR-loaded Soluplus® micelles (CUR-Ms) were prepared using a thin-film hydration method and these micelles displayed nearly spherical shape with an average size of 62.80 ± 1.29 nm. CUR in micelles showed the greater stability, solubility and dissolution than free CUR. With the increased water solubility of CUR-Ms and P glycoprotein inhibition of Soluplus®, the absorption rate constant (Ka) and apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) of CUR-Ms in intestines was respectively 3.50 and 4.10 times higher than that of free CUR. Pharmacokinetic studies showed that CUR-Ms significantly improved the oral bioavailability of CUR. Specifically, the AUC0-∞ and Cmax of CUR-Ms were increased by 9.45 and 47.38 folds compared to free CUR, respectively. In mice with alcohol-induced tissue injury, the oral administration of CUR-Ms greatly reduced oxidative stress, and significantly defended liver and gastric mucosa from alcoholic damages. The results demonstrated CUR-Ms with good oral bioavailability could represent a promising strategy for the management of alcohol-induced tissue injury.

Abstract
Curcumin, together with demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin as a whole called curcuminoids, is an active phytochemical constituent present in the turmeric. When it comes to their analysis, most will rely on UV-Visible spectroscopy, HPLC and LC-MS methods. Looking to improve productivity, time and simplicity, we are proposing a 1H NMR based approach for curcuminoids analysis and its applications to different geographical regions. In the present work, sample preparation protocol is reported for the simultaneous determination of curcuminoids using 1H NMR. For the quantification of curcuminoids, 6-7 ppm vinylic proton region in the 1H NMR spectrum was used, where acetone was observed as the suitable solvent in terms of curcuminoids solubility and proper resolution of peak. The result shows that curcumin (46.8-59.50%) was major among all varieties, followed by DMC (22.15-27.70%) and BDMC (17.52-30.29%) except in Andhrapradesh variety, where BDMC (30.29%) was more than DMC (22.89%). These studies were further supported by HPLC analysis.
