... Resveratrol This article is being retracted from Bioscience Reports at the request of the authors following receipt of a notification from a reader, alerting the authors to common features in the FACS plots of Figure 1. The authors have been unable to replicate the results, hence felt...

...Xiaohui Guo; Xiaoliang Bai; Feng Zhang; Long Zheng; Wenyuan Ding; Sidong Yang Objective: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the specific downstream signaling pathway mediated by PI3K/Akt in resveratrol (RES) anti-apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs). Materials and methods...

... pathways of apoptosis. So, there have been efforts to sustain mitochondrial homeostasis and inhibit its dysfunction. Notably, due to the potential role of mitochondria in the stimulation of apoptosis, this organelle is a promising target in cancer therapy. Resveratrol is a non-flavonoid polyphenol...

... and similar to that observed with the wild-type protein. NQO1 was also inhibited by resveratrol and by nicotinamide. Inhibition of NQO1 by resveratrol was approximately 10,000-fold less strong than that observed with the structurally similar enzyme, NRH quinine oxidoreductase 2 (NQO2). The enzyme exhibited...

... with disc cell senescence. Resveratrol has a protective role against inflammation in some cells. However, its biological effects on disc cells remain largely unclear. The present study was aimed to study the effects of resveratrol on disc nucleus pulposus (NP) cell senescence in an inflammation environment...

... with its natural activator resveratrol, SIRT 1 actively participates in the OA pathological progress. SIRT 1 expression in osteoarthritic cartilage decreases in the disease progression of OA; it appears to play a predominantly regulatory role in OA. SIRT 1 can regulate the expression of extracellular...

.... The present study was aimed to investigate whether resveratrol can suppress IL-1β-mediated NP cell apoptosis and the potential signal transduction pathway. Experimental rat NP cells were treated with culture medium containing IL-1β (20 ng/ml) for 7 days. Control NP cells were cultured in the baseline medium...

...Jinlou Gao; Qingyun Zhang; Lin Song The decrease in nucleus pulposus (NP) matrix production is a classic feature during disc degeneration. Resveratrol (RSV) is reported to play protective effects under many pathological factors.The present study aims to study the effects of RSV on NP matrix...

...Yanhai Jiang; Guozhang Dong; Yeliang Song Mechanical overloading is a risk factor of disc degeneration. Studies have demonstrated that resveratrol helps to maintain the disc cell’s healthy biology. The present study aims to investigate whether resveratrol can suppress mechanical overloading-induced...

... the degenerative disc. Resveratrol is a newly identified phytoalexin that has protective effects on cartilaginous tissue. Objective: To investigate the whether resveratrol can protect against high glucose-induced NP cell apoptosis and senescence, and the potential mechanism in this process. Methods: Rat NP cells...

...Zhiwen Zhang; Feng Wen; Chengjian He; Jun Yu Background: Nucleus pulposus (NP) cell apoptosis is a typical feature within the degenerative disc. High magnitude compression significantly promotes NP cell apoptosis. Several studies have indicated that resveratrol has protective effects on disc cell’s...

... the effects of resveratrol on disc NP matrix homeostasis under a relatively high-magnitude mechanical compression and the potential mechanism underlying this process. Porcine discs were perfusion-cultured and subjected to a relatively high-magnitude mechanical compression (1.3 MPa at a frequency of 1.0 Hz...

... (e.g. fumarate, catechin or resveratrol). Beyond these Janus-faced, multifunctional compounds, the spectrum of antireductants extends to pure electron-attractors (e.g. atmospheric triplet oxygen, O 2 , for plant root and gut protection). Current and prospective fields of antireductant application range...

...-studied isoform. It regulates nuclear functions such as chromatin remodelling and gene transcription, and it appears to mediate beneficial effects of a low calorie diet which can partly be mimicked by the Sirt1 activating polyphenol resveratrol. The molecular details of Sirt1 domain architecture...

.... The mechanism of firefly luciferase inhibition by (E)-2-fluoro-4′-methoxystilbene, as well as its potency is comparable to its structure analogue resveratrol. The in vitro use of trans -stilbenes such as (E)-2-fluoro-4′-methoxystilbene or resveratrol compromises firefly luciferase reporter assays as well as ATP...
