Modified Curcuminoid-Rich Extract Liposomal CRE-SDInhibits Osteoclastogenesis via the Canonical NF-κB Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT: Curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin, are the major active compounds found in Curcuma longa L. (turmeric). Although their suppressive effects on bone resorption have been demonstrated, their pharmacokinetic disadvantages remain a concern. Herein, we utilized solid dispersion of a curcuminoid-rich extract (CRE), comprising such curcuminoids, to prepare CRE-SD; subsequently, we performed liposome encapsulation of the CRE-SD to yield liposomal CRE-SD. In vitro release assessment revealed that a lower cumulative mass percentage of CRE-SD was released from liposomal CRE-SD than from CRE-SD samples. After culture of murine RANKL-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, our in vitro examinations confirmed that liposomal CRE-SD may impede osteoclastogenesis by
