Downhill running is associated with fiber damage, inflammation, delayed-onset muscle
soreness, and various functional deficits. Curcumin, a constituent of the Indian spice turmeric …

Downhill running causes muscle damage, and induces oxidative stress and inflammatory
reaction. Recently, it is shown that curcumin possesses anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory …

Background: It is known that unaccustomed exercise—especially when it has an eccentric
component—causes muscle damage and subsequent performance decrements. Attenuating …

Purpose Polyphenolic curcumin is known to have potent anti-inflammatory effects; thus the
present study investigated the hypothesis that curcumin ingestion would attenuate muscle …

Curcumin is known to have potent anti-inflammatory effects. We have reported that acute
curcumin ingestion attenuates eccentric exercise–induced muscle damage. This study …

Introduction Oral curcumin decreases inflammatory cytokines and increases muscle
regeneration in mice. Purpose To determine effects of curcumin on muscle damage …

Curcumin has been shown to reduce exercise-induced oxidative stress (OS) and
inflammation. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effects of curcumin …

Intense exercise, especially involving eccentric contractions, causes muscle damage
concomitant with increased reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can lead to increased …

Physical activity, particularly high-intensity eccentric muscle contractions, produces exercise-
induced muscle damage (EIMD). The breakdown of muscle fibers and the consequent …

Purpose Exercise (Ex) increases reactive oxygen species and impairs antioxidant defense
systems. Recent data suggest that curcumin (CW) possesses peroxisome proliferator …
