Cytoprotective Properties of Turmeric Oil (Curcuma longa L.) on Fibroblast Cells.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveSenescence is a cellular physiological process involved in cell aging. One factor that increases senescence is oxidative stress, which can be induced by hydrogen peroxide. Active compounds in turmeric (Curcuma longa) are classified as volatile and non-volatile. Major non-volatile compounds in turmeric are curcumin, dimethoxy curcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin bioactivities that have been widely explored. However, turmeric rhizome oil (TO) has limited reports on its bioactivity and constituents. This study aims to determine the potency of TO as cytoprotective against oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide using the fibroblast cell lines (NIH-3T3 and HDF).
methodsWe evaluated the cytotoxicity of TO using MTT assay, then evaluated its effect on cell senescence using SA-β-gal assay. The cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was observed using DCFDA staining through flow cytometry. The turmeric volatile oil which was obtained by steam-water distillation was analyzed with a gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry (GC-MS) to determine the chemical profile.
resultsTO showed low cytotoxicity against HDF and NIH-3T3 cells, with IC50 values of over 100 µM. TO rescued cells from undergoing senescence and reduced ROS levels which were induced by hydrogen peroxide. The GC-MS spectra of the TO compound in positive ionization mode showed retention times of 23.56 and 26.20 minutes, corresponding to the ar-turmerone and turmerone compounds.
conclusionThese results indicated that TO has the potency as a cytoprotective agent in stress oxidative conditions.
