Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer Chemopreventive Activity of Resveratrol, a Natural Product Derived from Grapes

TL;DR: It is suggested that resveratrol, a common constituent of the human diet, merits investigation as a potential cancer chemopreventive agent in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resveratrol Inhibits Cyclooxygenase-2 Transcription and Activity in Phorbol Ester-treated Human Mammary Epithelial Cells

TL;DR: It is found that resveratrol also directly inhibited the activity of COX-2, a phenolic antioxidant found in grapes and other food products, which is likely to be important for understanding the anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties of resver atrol.
Journal Article

Cancer chemopreventive activity of resveratrol.

TL;DR: Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene) is a naturally occurring compound shown to inhibit carcinogen-induced preneoplastic lesion formation in mouse mammary organ culture and tumorigenesis in the two-stage mouse skin model as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant-derived anticancer agents

TL;DR: A proposal is put forth to create a cancer chemoprevention drug formulation for utilization on a widespread basis by the general population, and the composition of the formulation should improve over time.
Journal Article

Evaluation of the antioxidant potential of natural products.

TL;DR: Of these substances, the hydroxystilbenes piceatannol and transresveratrol have thus far been shown to inhibit carcinogen-induced preneoplastic lesion formation in the mouse mammary gland organ culture model.
