Curcumin induces apoptosis and protective autophagy in castration-resistant prostate cancer cells through iron chelation

BACKGROUND: Curcumin induces apoptosis and autophagy in different cancer cells. Moreover, chemical and biological experiments have evidenced that curcumin is a biologically active iron chelator and induces cytotoxicity through iron chelation. We thus hypothesized that curcumin may induce apoptosis a...
