Gouty arthritis is a complex form of inflammatory arthritis, triggered by the sedimentation of monosodium urate crystals in periarticular tissues, synovial joints, and other sites in the body. Curcumin is a natural polyphenol compound, isolated from the rhizome of the plant Curcuma longa, possessing countless physiological features, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-rheumatic qualities. This study aimed to discuss the beneficial impacts of curcumin and its mechanism in treating gout disease. Ten English and Persian databases were used to conduct a thorough literature search. Studies examining the anti-gouty arthritis effects of curcumin and meeting the inclusion criteria were included. According to the studies, curcumin has shown xanthine oxidase and urate transporter-1 inhibitory properties, uric acid inhibitory characteristics, and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. However, some articles found no prominent reduction in uric acid levels. In this review, we emphasized the potency of curcumin and its compounds against gouty arthritis. Despite the potency, we suggest an additional well-designed evaluation of curcumin, before its therapeutic effectiveness is completely approved as an anti-gouty arthritis agent.
