NCIt synonyms : (E)-5-[2-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)ethenyl]-1,3-benzenediol; 3,4',5-Stilbenetriol;
NCIt definition : A phytoalexin derived from grapes and other food products with antioxidant and potential
chemopreventive activities. Resveratrol induces phase II drug-metabolizing enzymes
(anti-initiation activity); mediates anti-inflammatory effects and inhibits cyclooxygenase
and hydroperoxidase functions (anti-promotion activity); and induces promyelocytic
leukemia cell differentiation (anti-progression activity), thereby exhibiting activities
in three major steps of carcinogenesis. This agent may inhibit TNF-induced activation
of NF-kappaB in a dose- and time-dependent manner. (NCI05);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A substance found in the skins of grapes and in certain other plants, fruits,
and seeds. It is made by various plants to help defend against invading fungi, stress,
