Inflammatory response clearly occured in pathologically vulnerable regions of the Alzheimers disease (AD) brain. Many proinflammatory mediators, such as IL-1, IL-6,TNF-? and TGF-?, were significantly up-regulated in the pathophysiological process of AD. In addition to their traditional actions as proinflammatory molecules, AD-specific interactions of the cytokines and amyloid ?(A?) may be pathophysiologically relevant, and there was a reciprocal relationship within the cytokines inducing and being induced by A?.

Curcumin is the main active component in turmeric, which possesses many pharmacologic effects, including anti-in-flammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-atherosclerosis, liver and kidney protection and so on. However, due to its poor bioavail-ability, its clinical application is limited. Therefore, the methods for improving the bioavailability of curcumin were reviewed by refer-ring to a large number of literatures. The bioavailability of curcumin can be improved by different administration routes and various dos-age forms. The review provides theoretical basis and research ideas for the development of new drugs.
