Abstract

Resveratrol is a polyphenol that plays a potentially important role in many disorders and has been studied in different diseases. The research on this chemical started through the "French paradox," which describes improved cardiovascular outcomes despite a high-fat diet in French people. Since then, resveratrol has been broadly studied and shown to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and anti-angiogenic effects, with those on oxidative stress possibly being most important and underlying some of the others, but many signaling pathways are among the molecular targets of resveratrol. In concert they may be beneficial in many disorders, particularly in diseases where oxidative stress plays an important role. The main focus of this review will be the pathways affected by resveratrol. Based on these mechanistic considerations, the involvement of resveratrol especially in cardiovascular diseases, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and possibly in longevity will be is addressed.

  • Resveratrol has been associated with the so-called "French paradox", based on epidemiological data from the French population known for the low incidence of cardiovascular diseases despite the consumption of a high-fat diet.

    “Resveratrol has been associated with the so-called “French paradox”, which has been reported in 1992, based on epidemiological data from the French population known for the low incidence of cardiovascular diseases despite the consumption of a high-fat diet (Catalgol et al. 2012).”
  • Low incidence of cardiovascular diseases has been linked to the consumption of red wine containing a high concentration of resveratrol, a multipurpose molecule possessing various beneficial and health-protecting properties, involving antioxidant and antitumor properties.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
