[edit] Cancer Prevention
In some lineages of cancer cell culture,
resveratrol has been shown to induce
apoptosis, which means it kills cells and
may kill cancer
cells.[35][36][37][38][39][40] Resveratrol
has been shown to induce Fas/Fas ligand
mediated apoptosis, p53 and cyclins A, B1
and cyclin-dependent kinases cdk 1 and 2.
Resveratrol also possesses antioxidant and
anti-angiogenic properties.[41][42]
Resveratrol is under extensive
investigation as a cancer chemopreventive
agent.[43][44] Indeed, there are studies
showing that small doses of dietary
resveratrol can reduce colon
carcinogenesis in rats and mice.[45] One
German study has already been shown to
that under special conditions, resveratrol
induces apoptosis in human fat cells. In
addition, it inhibits production of
cytokines which are involved in the
development of obesity-related
disorders.[46]
