Protocol summary

Summary
Objectives:We will investigate anti-inflammatory and anti oxidative stress effects of curcumin on patients with sulfur mustard-induced lung complications and the efficacy of curcumin in the alleviation of SM-induced chronic obstructive pulmonary symptoms. Study population and Intervention: A total of eighty non-smoker male Iranian veterans (38–62 years) will be randomised to receive either curcumin (1 g/d, n 20) or placebo (n 20) for 8 weeks. Curcumin will be administered for the patients in the form of C3 Complex capsules containing 500 mg curcuminoids and 5mg Bioperine. Placebo capsules containspiperine (5 mg) and are mached in shape, size and dose. Study duration and expected results: It is designed to assess pulmonary function tests and serum levels of a panel of markers: Interleukin-8, interleukin-4, interleukin-13 , monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 ,and Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha, Immunoglobulin G and Immunoglobulin I, High density lipoprotein, Low density lipoprotein,total cholesterol, lipoprotein(a), triglyceride, and activities of antioxidant enzymes including catalase, super oxide dismutase, and malondialdehyde and homocysteine, at baseline and at the end of the trial.
