Abstract

Background and Objective: Curcumin is an effective anti-cancer agent used in thyroid cancer treatments. However, its use in clinical applications is limited due to low solubility and bioavailability. In this study, a novel combination strategy was applied by combining curcumin with Suberoylanilide Hydroxamic Acid (SAHA) to increase both bioavailability of curcumin and the efficiency of SAHA, which have limited efficiency when used alone.
