Bioactivity of Resveratrol

Multifaceted approach to resveratrol bioactivity

Resveratrol (RVT) is a naturally occurring trihydroxy stilbene that displays a wide spectrum of physiological activity. Its ability to behave therapeutically as a component of red wine has attracted wide attention. The phenol acts as a protective agent involving various body constituents. Most attention has been given to beneficial effects in insults involving cancer, aging, cardiovascular syst...

In silico ADME-Toxicity Profiling, Prediction of Bioactivity and CNS Penetrating Properties of some Newer Resveratrol Analogues

In silico ADME Toxicity profiling showed an interesting results against the resveratrol and its designed ligands (D1-D16), that these ligands were permeable by intestinal (Human Colonic Carcioma Cell Line) CaCo2 cell line and D8, D9, D11, D13, D14, D15, D16 were inhibitor of CYP2C19 microsomal enzyme which were may be active against breast cancer cell line, as the D13, D16 were belong to the pg...

Bioactivity potential of some marine algae from south of Iran

Algae are composed of a diverse group of various aquatic organisms. Secondary or primary metabolites from these organisms may be potential bioactive compounds of interest for use in the development of new pharmaceutical agents. In this research, four species of marine algae, Ulva lactuca, Padina pavonica, Colpomenia sinuosa and Cystoseira myrica, isolated from Persian Gulf coasts were evaluated...

Fucoidan: structure and bioactivity.

Fucoidan refers to a type of polysaccharide which contains substantial percentages of L-fucose and sulfate ester groups, mainly derived from brown seaweed. For the past decade fucoidan has been extensively studied due to its numerous interesting biological activities. Recently the search for new drugs has raised interest in fucoidans. In the past few years, several fucoidans' structures have be...
