2-Undecanone can reduce airway inflammation and remodeling in asthma. It decreases inflammatory cells, cytokines, and inhibits NF-κB pathway, showing potential as a treatment.
Researchers developed a stable, water-soluble form of curcumin, called CDC, which effectively reduces lung injury and inflammation in mice following bacterial exposure. Recently, CDC was found to reduce gene and protein expression of key factors involved in COVID-19 pathogenesis. This review considers the potential of curcumin in treating COVID-19 and bacterial/viral-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) through modulating inflammation.
