Resveratrol & Breast Cancer

Resveratrol & Breast Cancer - How Does It Work?

Resveratrol is a polyphenol found in grapes, cocoa, blueberries, cranberries, wine and peanut butter. Resveratrol has been recognized to have health-prompting effects through modulating cell signaling pathways, and is reported to have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects - shown in studies conducted in vitro and in animal models.Recent studies aim to explore the potential benefits of resveratrol to inhibit tumor growth in cancer patients. One such study (linked below) suggests that trans-Resveratrol may interact with several cellular targets to activate cell cycle arrest and death in breast cancer cells.

"Polyphenols represent a large class of plant-derived molecules with a general chemical structure that act as potent free radical scavengers. They have long been recognized to possess several therapeutic activities ranging from anti-thrombotic to antioxidant. Moreover, the capability of polyphenols to act as reducing or oxidizing molecules depends on the presence of environmental metals and on the concentrations used. In this work we demonstrated that the stilbene trans-resveratrol was able to commit human breast cancer MCF-7 cells to apoptosis."

"trans-Resveratrol has been recently reported to possess several beneficial effects for human health. Besides its antioxidant activity, it has been suggested that trans-resveratrol inhibits each phase of tumor growth, by interacting with several cellular targets, thereby activating cell cycle arrest and death."
