Biological activities

Resveratrol is a selective human cytochrome P450 1A1 inhibitor. Resveratrol slightly suppresses ethoxyresorufin O-deethylation (EROD) activity in human liver microsomes with an IC50 of 1.1 mM. In a human P450 1A1/reductase bicistronic expression system, resveratrol inhibits human P450 1A1 activity in a mixed-type inhibition with Ki of 9 and 89 nM, for competitive and noncompetitive suppression with Ki of 9 and 89 µM, respectively. [1] Resveratrol dose-dependently inhibits the growth of estrogen receptor(ER)-positive MCF-7 cells. Resveratrol antagonizes the growth-promoting effect of 17-β-estradiol (E2) in a dose-dependent fashion at both the cellular (cell growth) and the molecular (gene activation) levels. At 50 µM, resveratrol abolishes the growth-stimulatory effect mediated by concentrations of E2 up to 1 nM in MCF-7 cells. [2] In another study, resveratrol increases the lipid fluidity of synaptosomal plasma membranes.[3] Resveratrol protects mice against diet-induced-obesity and insulin resistance.[4]

Protocols

In vitro Resveratrol is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in PBS.[4]
