Curcumin, a naturally derived polyphenolic compound has potent activities against cardiac disease like reducing hypertrophy, increasing antioxidant activity, maintaining hormone levels and blood pressure etc. Polymeric curcumin nanoparticles is a solemn concern nowadays in accordance to improve the beneficial properties of curcumin by diminishing its disadvantages like hydrophobic nature thereby results in maximum delivery of drug curcumin at the target. This study demonstrated the application of curcumin capped gold loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles (CAu-PLGA Nps) for the inhibition of cardiac hypertrophy by preserving myocardial functions of Wister rat model.
