Trienone analogs of curcuminoids induce fetal hemoglobin synthesis via demethylation at Gγ-globin gene promoter
Abstract The reactivation of γ-globin chain synthesis to combine with excess free α-globin chains and form fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is an important alternative treatment for β-thalassemia. We had reported HbF induction property of natural curcuminoids, curcumin (Cur), demethoxycurcumin (DMC) and bis-d...
