Fig 9. In vivo effect of curcumin on the expression of adiponectin and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).

Fig 9

(A) The tumor sizes of curcumin-treated mice were decreased significantly compared to those of the control group after 14 days. (B) Tumor adiponectin expression of curcumin-treated mice was decreased significantly compared to that of the control group. (C) Expression of both adiponectin receptor 1 and receptor 2 in the curcumin-treated mice did not change in vivo. (D–F) Expression levels of MMP-2, -9, -3, -13, and -14 were decreased with curcumin treatment in vivo. MMP-1 expression was not altered.
