Abstract: | Resveratrol, the red-wine polyphenol, is intensively studied polyphenols for its pleiotropic biological effects. A plethora of health beneficial effects of this stilbene has been reported including cardio-protective, neuro-protective, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic and interesting anti-aging. Though it has been proposed that these effects of resveratrol arise from its capacity to interact with multiple molecular targets involved in diverse intracellular pathways including activation of sirtuins, the antioxidant property of this compound is the most described one to attribute its diverse health beneficial effects. In the present review we have explained the biological activities of resveratrol with the latest laboratory evidences towards its antioxidant effects. |
