Background: Curcumin is a polyphenolic compound derived from the food spice turmeric that has received interest from the medical and scientific world for its role in the management of several conditions. Clinical studies, in humans, have shown that ingested Curcumin is safe even at high doses (12 g/day), but it has poor bioavailability primarily due to poor absorption and rapid metabolism and elimination. Several strategies have been implemented to improve the bioavailability of Curcumin, for example, the combination of piperine in a complex with Curcumin, or the usage of formulations with phospholipid or liposomal complexes.

A common hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases is the accumulation of polypeptide aggregates in neurons. Despite the primary cause of these diseases being inherently genetic, their development can be delayed with proper preventive treatments. Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 LCPUFA) are promising bioactive nutrients that are beneficial for brain health.

Mitomycin C as well as other antiproliferative drugs are off-label agents widely used to prevent the failure of glaucoma surgery due to activation of Tenon's fibroblasts and the ensuing excessive subconjunctival scarring. Though efficacious, these treatments are associated with some severe long-term complications, so it is crucial to investigate less cytotoxic compounds as adjuvant therapy in glaucoma surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect and potential cytotoxicity of Myriocin, a natural sphingolipid synthesis inhibitor, on TGF-β1-induced myofibroblasts transformation of human dermal fibroblasts.
