Abstract

Turmerones are major bioactive compounds of Curcuma species with several beneficial pharmacological activities. In addition, various in vivo and in vitro studies noted that turmerones could affect different cytokines, metabolic pathways, and targets. Turmerones will have the potential to be a candidate agent to lessen many pathological and immunological conditions as a result of these pharmacological activities. In this review, we provided information about the pharmacological actions of turmerones using search engines such as PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science. © 2025 Bentham Science Publishers.
