Effectiveness of Resveratrol on Metastasis: A Review
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy (IOSRPHR) - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
Resveratrol’s effects on different cancers have been studied extensively over the past 15 years. Researchers have noted the compound’s potential ability to mitigate cell proliferation and metastasis and promote apoptosis. This review primarily focuses on the former, while noting that both processes are intrinsically related. This thorough analysis of resveratrol finds that it can inhibit cancer progression through a multitude of pathways, making it a potential candidate for future drug therapies. This review also highlights the need to study combinatorial effects of resveratrol with other compounds in an attempt to develop more effective and efficient drugs.
