Antioxidant Properties of Resveratrol and its Protective Effects in Neurodegenerative Diseases

Abstract: Resveratrol is a natural organic compound, polyphenol, produced naturally by some plants in response to several harmful factors such as attack by pathogens, UV radiation, or increased oxidative stress. Many experiments suggest that it triggers mechanisms that counteract aging-related effects and plays a role in insulin resistance as well. It also possesses beneficial properties such as anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, blood-sugar-lowering and cardiovascular effects. It is supposed to exhibit an interesting acti… Show more

“…Also, the best effect belonged to AL–RE 0.2%. Previous researchers also identified antioxidant activity of RE, reporting that compounds with phytoalexin origin such as RE are potent antioxidants (Gerszon et al, ; Gülçin, ; Iuga et al, ). No significant difference was observed between RE and control groups in TBARS value of ground beef patties based on the results of Surendran Nair et al ().…”

“…Resveratrol (RE), trans‐3,4,5‐trihydroxystilbene, is a phytoalexin compound belonging to stilbenes family, detectable in food materials such as grapes, leaves of edible plants, red wine, green tea, dark chocolate, mulberries and peanuts with its antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antimicrobial properties; it is also consumed as a dietary supplement for its considerable beneficial health effects (Gerszon, Rodacka, & Puchała, ; Gülçin, ; Iuga, Alvarez‐Idaboy, & Russo, ). Plants produce low molecular weight secondary metabolites such as phytoalexins in the defense response against microbial infections.…”

“…Preclinical studies suggest that the activation of SIRT1 by resveratrol may contribute to its beneficial effects in a number of disease models. For example, resveratrol has been shown to impart beneficial effects on animal models of Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease by inducing SIRT1 activation . AMPK/SIRT1/PGC‐1α is a major axis involved in the mitochondrial biogenesis .…”

“…It also increases mRNA expression of glutathione S-transferase (GST), NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NOQ1), cardiac thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1), cardiac thioredoxin-2 (Trx-2), and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). This polyphenol has been shown to modulate cellular processes mainly by activating targets such as sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ co-activator-1α (PGC-1α) and AMPK (Khan et al 2012, Gerszon et al 2014. Resveratrol may possess anticancer effects due to SIRT1's activation, which leads to deacetylation inter alia via the tumour suppressor retinoblastoma (Rb), β-catenin, and caspase 3.…”
