Some studies have found that CUR can prevent tumor angiogenesis and cell proliferation, induce cancer cell apoptosis, downregulate epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activity and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression levels, downregulate nuclear transcription factor, inhibit the activation of the STAT3 signaling pathway, downregulate the expression level of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), and reduce the synthesis level of MMP9 and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), thus exerting its antitumor effect through multiple pathways [14,15]. This evidence concerns the gene MMP9 and cancer.
