Curcuminoid, a dietary polyphenolic compound, has poor water solubility and low bioavailability following oral administration. The aim of this study was to develop a formulation of curcuminoid-loaded microemulsion (Cur-ME) to improve its oral bioavailability. The optimized Cur-ME formulation was prepared

Curcumin has been shown to affect platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)- and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-elicited vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and inhibit neointima formation following vascular injury. However, whether two other curcuminoids isolated from Curcuma longa, demethoxycurcumin (DMC) and
