Abstract:Piceatannol (3,4,3′,5′‐tetrahydroxystilbene) is a naturally occurring polyphenol and analog of the cancer chemopreventive agent resveratrol (3,5,4′‐trihydroxystilbene). Piceatannol is present in the skins of grapes, rhubarb, and sugar cane and is known to have anti‐inflammatory and anti‐carcinogenic activity. In the present study, we examined piceatannol‐mediated regulation of cell cycle progression in androgen‐insensitive DU145 human prostate cancer cells. Cells were treated with 0–10 μM piceatannol. The perc… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
