Amyloid beta (Aβ) plaque deposition is a pathological feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) that is characterized by dementia. Therapies approaches affecting Aβ synthesis and accumulation are necessary for improving AD. The present review, as the future prospective study, focuses on the possible effect of curcumin on the non-amyloidogenic pathways for inhibiting the Aβ plaque in AD. Activators of non-amyloidogenic pathways emerge as a novel strategy in attenuating Aβ. Drugs and natural compounds can affect neurotrophic signaling pathways including protein kinase C (PKC), tyrosine kinase (TK), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling, and Ca2+ signaling as wells serotonergic and acetylcholine systems, resulting to stimulate non-amyloidogenic pathways. Curcumin, active constituent of Curcuma longa L. (turmeric), has a potent effect against AD through prevention Aβ generation and deposition. With attention to the effect of curcumin on the molecular mechanism behind the non-amyloidogenic pathways, we suggest designing more studies to identify curcumin as a therapeutic restricting AD agent via its impact on the non-amyloidogenic pathway. © 2019 by the authors.
