Naturally occurring phytochemicals such as turmeric (curcumin) have been found to inhibit the growth of tumor cells. Dimethoxycurcumin is an analog of curcumin obtained by methylation of both free phenolic groups in the parent compound. A 30-fold increase in potency was observed in the growth suppression of HCT116 tumor cells following this modification.

A Promising Anticancer Agent Dimethoxycurcumin: Aspects of Pharmacokinetics, Efficacy, Mechanism, and Nanoformulation for Drug Delivery
Front Pharmacol 2021 Jul 6;12:665387.PMID:34295247DOI:10.3389/fphar.2021.665387.
Curcumin is a well-known anticancer natural product with various significant bioactivities that has been well documented, but its widespread use is mainly hindered by insufficient ADME properties such as poor solubility and low metabolic stability. Dimethoxycurcumin (DiMC) is a kind of lipophilic compound derived from curcumin that maintains its anticancer potency and has greatly improved systematic bioavailability. Therefore, DiMC is regarded as a promising plant-derived anticancer agent that deserves to be well developed. Herein, we concentrate on the published work by those from original research groups concerned with the pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and mechanism of DiMC involved in the treatment of various tumors, as well as the nanoformulations for effective drug delivery.
Biological and pharmacological evaluation of Dimethoxycurcumin: A metabolically stable curcumin analogue with a promising therapeutic potential
J Cell Physiol 2018 Jan;233(1):124-140.PMID:27996095DOI:10.1002/jcp.25749.
Dimethoxycurcumin (DiMC) is a synthetic analog of curcumin with superior inter-related pro-oxidant and anti-cancer activity, and metabolic stability. Numerous studies have shown that DiMC reserves the biologically beneficial features, including anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, and cytoprotective properties, almost to the same extent as curcumin exhibits. DiMC lacks the phenolic-OH groups as opposed to curcumin, Dimethoxycurcumin, and bis-demethoxycurcumin that all vary in the number of methoxy groups per molecule, and has drawn the attentions of researchers who attempted to discover the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of curcumin. In this regard, tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), the reduced and biologically inert metabolite of curcumin, denotes the significance of the conjugated α,β diketone moiety for the curcumin activity. DiMC exerts unique molecular activities compared to curcumin, including induction of androgen receptor (AR) degradation and suppression of the transcription factor activator protein-1 (AP-1). The enhanced AR degradation on DiMC treatment suggests it as a novel anticancer agent against resistant tumors with androgenic etiology. Further, DiMC might be a potential treatment for acne vulgaris. DiMC induces epigenetic alteration more effectively than curcumin, although both showed no direct DNA hypomethylating activity. Given the metabolic stability, nanoparticulation of DiMC is more promising for in vivo effectiveness. However, studies in this regard are still in its infancy. In the current review, we portray the various molecular and biological functions of DiMC reported so far. Whenever possible, the efficiency is compared with curcumin and the reasons for DiMC being more metabolically stable are elaborated. We also provide future perspective investigations with respect to varying DiMC-nanoparticles.
Complex polymeric nanomicelles co-delivering doxorubicin and Dimethoxycurcumin for cancer chemotherapy
Drug Deliv 2022 Dec;29(1):1523-1535.PMID:35611890DOI:10.1080/10717544.2022.2073403.
Combinational therapy is a new trend in medical sciences to achieve a maximum therapeutic response of the drugs with a comparatively low incidence of severe adverse effects. To overcome the challenges of conventional formulations for cancer chemotherapy, a polymer-based complex nanomicellar system, namely CPM-DD, was developed co-delivering the anti-cancer agent doxorubicin (DOX) and potent antioxidant Dimethoxycurcumin (DiMC). The optimal mass ratio of DOX/DiMC in CPM-DD was determined as 1:6 due to the synergistic antiproliferative effect from in vitro cytotoxicity assay, while the biocompatible diblock copolymer of mPEG2000-PLA5000 was selected for drug entrapment at an optimal feeding ratio of 9:1 to both drugs together. The uniform particles of CPM-DD with suitable particle size (∼30 nm) and stable drug loading content (>9%) could be reliably obtained by self-assembly with the encapsulation yield up to 95%. Molecular dynamics simulation revealed the interaction mechanism responsible for forming these complex nanomicelles. The acid-base interaction between two drugs would significantly improve their binding with the copolymer, thus leading to good colloidal stability and controlled drug release characteristics of CPM-DD. Systematic evaluation based on the MCF-7 breast tumor-bearing nude mice model further demonstrated the characteristics of tissue biodistribution of both drugs delivered by CPM-DD, which were closely related to the drug loading pattern and greatly responsible for the improved anti-cancer potency and attenuated toxicity of this complex formulation. Therefore, all the findings indicated that CPM-DD would be a good alternative to the conventional formulations of DOX and worthy of clinical application for cancer chemotherapy.
Dimethoxycurcumin reduces proliferation and induces apoptosis in renal tumor cells more efficiently than demethoxycurcumin and curcumin
Chem Biol Interact 2021 Apr 1;338:109410.PMID:33582110DOI:10.1016/j.cbi.2021.109410.
Curcumin (Cur), is a pigment with antiproliferative activity but has some pharmacokinetic limitations, which led researchers to look for more effective structure analogs. This work investigated the effects of Cur and compared them with the two analogs, demethoxycurcumin (DeMC) and Dimethoxycurcumin (DiMC), to elucidate their mechanisms of action. The cytotoxic, antiproliferative, and genotoxic effects these compounds were correlated based on gene expression analysis in the human renal adenocarcinoma cells (786-O). Cur decreased CYP2D6 expression and exhibited cytotoxic effects, such as inducing monopolar spindle formation and mitotic arrest mediated by the increase in CDKN1A (p21) mRNA. This dysregulation induced cell death through a caspase-independent pathway but was mediated by decrease in MTOR and BCL2 mRNA expression, suggesting that apoptosis occurred by autophagy. DeMC and DiMC had similar effects in that they induced monopolar spindle and mitotic arrest, were genotoxic, and activated GADD45A, an important molecule in repair mechanisms, and CDKN1A. However, the induction of apoptosis by DeMC was delayed and regulated by the decrease of antiapoptotic mRNA BCL.XL and subsequent activation of caspase 9 and caspase 3/7. DiMC treatment increased the expression of CYP1A2, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 and exhibited higher cytotoxicity compared with other compounds. It induced apoptosis by increasing mRNA expression of BBC3, MYC, and CASP7 and activation of caspase 9 and caspase 3/7. These data revealed that different gene regulation processes are involved in cell death induced by Cur, DeMC, and DiMC. All three can be considered as promising chemotherapy candidates, with DiMC showing the greatest potency.
Differential antioxidant/pro-oxidant activity of Dimethoxycurcumin, a synthetic analogue of curcumin
Free Radic Res 2011 Aug;45(8):959-65.PMID:21615275DOI:10.3109/10715762.2011.571681.
Dimethoxycurcumin (Dimc), a metabolically stable analogue of curcumin, is under investigation as an anti-tumour agent. Recently a number of studies have been performed on Dimc in this laboratory and also by others. In the present article, all these results have been summarized and wherever possible compared with those of curcumin. Rate constant for reactions of Dimc with superoxide radicals was comparable with that of curcumin, while its reaction with peroxyl radicals was much slower. These results were further supported by the observations on the scavenging of basal ROS levels in lymphocytes and evaluation of antioxidant activities. In line with the earlier reports on curcumin, Dimc was a pro-oxidant and generated ROS in tumour cells. Both curcumin and Dimc were non-toxic to lymphocytes, while exhibiting comparable cytotoxicity to tumour cells. Additionally, these compounds showed higher uptake in tumour cells than in normal lymphocytes. Fluorescence studies on both the compounds revealed their binding to genomic DNA, similar sub-cellular distribution and nuclear localization. All these studies suggested that methylation of the phenolic-OH group in curcumin, although decreasing the antioxidant activity marginally, showed comparable pro-oxidant activity, making it a promising anti-tumour agent.
