Researchers from Yangzhou University in Jiangsu, China have developed a new method to improve the water solubility and stability of cuminaldehyde (CUM), a bioactive compound with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, and antibacterial effects. They used a cyclodextrin polymer to encapsulate CUM, resulting in a highly water-soluble complex called CUM-0-CDP. This complex demonstrated superior antibacterial ability and inhibited the proliferation and migration of HepG2 cells, indicating promising anti-cancer potential. The successful design of this inclusion complex offers a new approach for delivering natural drug molecules with low water solubility. [Extracted from the article] |
