“…Curcuminoid is a mixture of curcumin and its derivatives such as bisdemethoxycurcumin and demethoxycurcumin isolated from the rhizome of zedoary (Lobo et al 2009) and other Curcuma species (Katsuyama et al 2009;Lee et al 2014;Gilani et al 2015;Behar et al 2016). Previous studies suggested that curcuminoids, especially curcumin, have valuable biological activities such as antioxidant, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-acidogenic, radioprotective and neuroprotective properties (Hayakawa et al 2011;Amalraj et al 2017).…”

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of yeast extract (YE) and salicylic acid (SA) on the expression of curcuminoid-biosynthesis genes (CzDCS and CURS1-3), and accumulation of curcumin in Curcuma zedoaria cell cultures. The results showed that, in cells treated with YE or SA, the expression levels of curcuminoid genes were 1.14to 3.64-fold higher than the control (untreated cells), in which the YE exhibited a stronger effect in comparison with SA. Curcumin accumulation also tended to be similar to gene expression, curcumin contents in YE-or SA-treated cells were 1.61-to 2.53-fold higher than the control. The SA treatment at the fifth day of culture stimulated the curcumin accumulation and expression in all four genes compared to that at the beginning. While the YE treatments gave different results, the CzCURS1 and CzCURS3 genes were expressed strongly in cells that were treated at the beginning. However, the CzDCS and CzCURS2 genes showed the opposite expression pattern, they were activated strongly in the treatments at day five of the culture. However, the content of curcumin reached its maximum value on the fifth day of culture in all investigations.
