Y. P. Zhang, Li, Y. Q., Lv, Y. T., and Wang, J. M., Effect of curcumin on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of human melanoma A375 cells, vol. 14, pp. 1056-1067, 2015.

Malignant melanoma is a melanocytic tumor with a high potential of invasion and metastasis. Curcumin is extracted from Curcuma longa L.; curcumin has anti-tumor efficacy in multiple systemic malignancies. Here, we investigated the effect of curcumin on A375 human melanoma cells. A375 cells were cultivated, passaged, and treated with different concentrations of curcumin. We observed the cellular morphology and determined the migration, invasion, proliferation, and apoptosis of A375 cells in vitro.
