Curcumin analog DK1 induces apoptosis in human osteosarcoma cells in vitro through mitochondria-dependent signaling pathway

Osteosarcoma is one of the primary malignant bone tumors that confer low survival rates for patients even with intensive regime treatments. Therefore, discovery of novel anti-osteosarcoma drugs derived from natural products that are not harmful to the normal cells remains crucial. Curcumin is one of...
