Antifungal Activity of Resveratrol Derivatives against Candida Species

Abstract: trans-Resveratrol (1a) is a phytoalexin produced by plants in response to infections by pathogens. Its potential activity against clinically relevant opportunistic fungal pathogens has previously been poorly investigated. Evaluated herein are the candidacidal activities of oligomers (2a, 3-5) of 1a purified from Vitis vinifera grape canes and several analogues (1b-1j) of 1a obtained through semisynthesis using methylation and acetylation. Moreover, trans-ε-viniferin (2a), a dimer of 1a, was also subjected to m… Show more

“…Stilbenoids (resveratrol and viniferin in particular) have reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activity and act as a powerful defense system against biotic stresses (e.g., powdery mildew, downy mildew; Dabauza et al, 2015; Houillé et al, 2015). Furthermore, it is well-known that Vitis vinifera represents the best nutritional source of stilbenoid compounds with valuable effects on human health; these compounds have numerous pharmacological activities including anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor effects (Bai et al, 2010; Zhang et al, 2010; Houillé et al, 2014). Constitutive stilbene production in plants and accumulation in the final product (berries and wines) depends on grape variety, climate, soil, and other factors (Vincenzi et al, 2013).…”

“…3 Stilbenoids are valuable natural products due to their potential health benefit effects. These compounds exhibit numerous pharmacological activities including antidiabetic, 4 life-prolonging, 5 antifungal, 6 anti-inflammatory, 7 antitumoral, 8 antiatherogenic, 9 antiviral, 10 and neuroprotective effects. 11 In planta stilbenoids are both constitutive and inducible chemical defenses, and their levels in grape are associated with plant disease resistance.…”
