“…Numerous studies on the effects of curcumin on ErbB signaling found reduced protein levels of ErbB-1 (Chen and Xu, 2005;Chen et al, 2006a;Patel et al, 2008;Somers-Edgar et al, 2008;Thangapazham et al, 2008b;Majumdar et al, 2009;Giommarelli et al, 2010;Lee et al, 2011a;Nautiyal et al, 2011a), ErbB-2 Ohori et al, 2006;Thangapazham et al, 2008b;Majumdar et al, 2009;Nautiyal et al, 2011a), and ErbB-3 (Majumdar et al, 2009;Nautiyal et al, 2011a), as well as reduced phosphorylation of ErbB proteins (Chen and Xu, 2005;Reddy et al, 2006;Somers-Edgar et al, 2008;Khafif et al, 2009;Majumdar et al, 2009) after incubation of cells with curcumin. It should be noted that the effects of curcumin on ErbB levels and function varied per cancer cell type (Squires et al, 2003;Kim et al, 2006;Reddy et al, 2006;LevAri et al, 2007;Khafif et al, 2009;Lin et al, 2009).…”
