Abstract Resveratrol (RSV), the primary polyphenol found in grapes, has been revealed to have anti-inflammatory properties by reducing the capacity of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-6, IL-1ra and TNFα. Considering the close association between chronic inflammation and cancer development, RSV’s immunomodulatory properties are one way by which the polyphenol may inhibit cancer initiation, proliferation, neovascularization, and migration. Resveratrol influences the generation of microtumor environment which is one of the key factors in cancer progress. In addition to immunomodulation, RSV inhibits cancer development by expressing anti-oxidant effects, causing cell cycle… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The nutraceutical resveratrol is associated with a range of biological effects, from antibiotic to anti-inflammatory activities. One major axis of research has sought to harness its anti-tumour potential, with promising preclinical results and early clinical trials. A second strong interest relies on the anti-ageing effects ascribed to the compound and its application to stem cell research. It is becoming clear however that these possible favourable effects are conditioned by a set concentration range not easily controllable in vivo. Here we evoke novel developments in the field that could lead to more reliable conditions for the translational More >
