General description
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) is a colorless metabolite of curcumin. It has a similar structure to that of curcumin. THC lacks the α, β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety in its chemical structure. It is naturally sourced from the roots of Curcuma zedoaria, Zingiber mioga, and Zingiber officinale.
Application
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC) has been used as a neuroprotective agent to study its therapeutic potential in improving mitochondrial dysfunction in the ischemic stroke mice model.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Tetrahydrocurcumin is well-studied in treating cancer for its excellent anti-cancer, anti-angiogenic, and chemopreventative activities. It also exerts anti-inflammatory properties. Tetrahydrocurcumin has been shown to have antioxidant and protective effects against diabetes, and vascular dysfunction via alleviation of oxidative stress.

Curcumin (diferuloylmethane), a golden pigment from turmeric, has been linked with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiviral, antibacterial, and antidiabetic properties. Most of the these activities have been assigned to methoxy, hydroxyl, α,β-unsaturated carbonyl moiety or to diketone groups present in curcumin.
