Enhanced isradipine sensitivity in vascular smooth muscle cells due to hypoxia-induced Ca v1.2 splicing and RbFox1/Fox2 downregulation. FEBS J 2024.

Abstract
Calcium influx via the L-type voltage-gated Cav1.2 calcium channel in smooth muscle cells regulates vascular contraction. Calcium channel blockers (CCBs) are widely used to treat hypertension by inhibiting Cav1.2 channels. Using the vascular smooth muscle cell line, A7r5 and primary culture of cerebral vascular smooth muscle cells, we found that the expression and function of Cav1.2 channels are downregulated during hypoxia. Furthermore, hypoxia induces structural changes in Cav1.2 channels via alternative splicing. The expression of exon 9* is upregulated, whereas exon 33 is downregulated. Such structural alterations of Cav1.2 channels are caused by the decreased expression of RNA-binding proteins RNA-binding protein fox-1 homolog 1 and 2 (RbFox1 and RbFox2). Overexpression of RbFox1 and RbFox2 prevents hypoxia-induced exon 9* inclusion and exon 33 exclusion. Importantly, such structural alterations of the Cav1.2 channel partly contribute to the enhanced sensitivity of Cav1.2 to isradipine (a CCB) under hypoxia. Overexpression of RbFox1 and RbFox2 successfully reduces isradipine sensitivity in hypoxic smooth muscle cells. Our results suggest a new strategy to manage ischemic diseases such as stroke and myocardial infarction.

Natural Polyphenols as SERCA Activators: Role in the Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-Related Diseases. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27165095. [PMID: 36014327 PMCID: PMC9415898 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27165095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2022] [Revised: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) is a key protein responsible for transporting Ca2+ ions from the cytosol into the lumen of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER), thus maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis within cells. Accumulating evidence suggests that impaired SERCA function is associated with disruption of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and induction of ER stress, leading to different chronic pathological conditions. Therefore, appropriate strategies to control Ca2+ homeostasis via modulation of either SERCA pump activity/expression or relevant signaling pathways may represent a useful approach to combat pathological states associated with ER stress. Natural dietary polyphenolic compounds, such as resveratrol, gingerol, ellagic acid, luteolin, or green tea polyphenols, with a number of health-promoting properties, have been described either to increase SERCA activity/expression directly or to affect Ca2+ signaling pathways. In this review, potential Ca2+-mediated effects of the most studied polyphenols on SERCA pumps or related Ca2+ signaling pathways are summarized, and relevant mechanisms of their action on Ca2+ regulation with respect to various ER stress-related states are depicted. All data were collected using scientific search tools (i.e., Science Direct, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar).

Abstract
Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant molecule. In the human diet, its most important source is in Vitis vinifera grape peel and leaves. Resveratrol exists in two isoforms, cis- and trans. The diastereomeric forms of many drugs have been reported as affecting their activity. The aim of this study was to set up a cellular model to investigate how far resveratrol could counteract cytotoxicity in an oxidant agent. For this purpose, a keratinocyte cell line, which was genetically engineered with jelly fish green fluorescent protein, was treated with the free radical promoter Cumene hydroperoxide. The antioxidant activity of the trans-resveratrol and its diastereomeric mixture was evaluated indirectly in these treated fluorescent-engineered keratinocytes by analyzing the cell number and cell proliferation index. Our results demonstrate that cells, which were pre-incubated with resveratrol, reverted the oxidative damage progression induced by this free radical agent. In conclusion, fluorescent-engineered human keratinocytes represent a rapid and low-cost cellular model to determine cell numbers by studying emitted fluorescence. Comparative studies carried out with fluorescent keratinocytes indicate that trans-resveratrol is more efficient than diastereomeric mixtures in protecting cells from the oxidative stress.

Abstract
Bioactive dietary polyphenols in grape (Vitis vinifera) have been used in Dietary Supplements (DSs) with the aim to prevent numerous diseases, including cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, and to reduce depression and anxiety. Given prior recognition that DSs can be quality challenged from the purity, authentication, adulteration, and actual concentration of targeted bioactives, to ensure consumer health protection as well as the quality and safety of grape polyphenol-based DSs, the present investigation was aimed at establishing a comprehensive quality control (QC) approach for grape polyphenol-based DSs in support of a human clinical study. In this study, the manufactured grape seed polyphenol extract (GSPE) and trans-resveratrol (RSV) capsules and Concord Grape Juice (CGJ) along with the corresponding original drug materials were analyzed using the developed different liquid chromatography/UV-visible spectroscopy/mass spectrometry (LC/UV-Vis/MS) methods. The weight variation of GSPE and RSV capsules was also evaluated according to the US Pharmacopeia (USP) tests. The results indicate that the total identified polyphenol content in each grape seed extract (GSE) capsule/CGJ is very similar and all GSE/RSV capsules pass the content/weight uniformity test. Given the complexity of these and many botanical products from the issues of purity, quality, adulteration, consistency, and their coupling to the complex chemistry in each grape-derived botanical, quality assurance and the steps needed to ensure grape-derived DSs being well homogeneous and stable and containing the known and expected bioactives at specific concentration ranges are fundamental to any research study and in particular to a clinical trial. Each of these issues is essential to provide a solid foundation upon which clinical trials with botanicals can be conducted with the goal of realizing measurable mental health outcomes such as reducing depression and anxiety as well as understanding of their underlying biological mechanisms.

Jhanji M, Rao CN, Sajish M. Towards resolving the enigma of the dichotomy of resveratrol: cis- and trans-resveratrol have opposite effects on TyrRS-regulated PARP1 activation. GeroScience 2021; 43:1171-1200. [PMID: 33244652 PMCID: PMC7690980 DOI: 10.1007/s11357-020-00295-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2020] [Accepted: 10/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Unlike widely perceived, resveratrol (RSV) decreased the average lifespan and extended only the replicative lifespan in yeast. Similarly, although not widely discussed, RSV is also known to evoke neurite degeneration, kidney toxicity, atherosclerosis, premature senescence, and genotoxicity through yet unknown mechanisms. Nevertheless, in vivo animal models of diseases and human clinical trials demonstrate inconsistent protective and beneficial effects. Therefore, the mechanism of action of RSV that elicits beneficial effects remains an enigma. In a previously published work, we demonstrated structural similarities between RSV and tyrosine amino acid. RSV acts as a tyrosine antagonist and competes with it to bind to human tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (TyrRS). Interestingly, although both isomers of RSV bind to TyrRS, only the cis-isomer evokes a unique structural change at the active site to promote its interaction with poly-ADP-ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1), a major determinant of cellular NAD+-dependent stress response. However, retention of trans-RSV in the active site of TyrRS mimics its tyrosine-bound conformation that inhibits the auto-poly-ADP-ribos(PAR)ylation of PARP1. Therefore, we proposed that cis-RSV-induced TyrRS-regulated auto-PARylation of PARP1 would contribute, at least in part, to the reported health benefits of RSV through the induction of protective stress response. This observation suggested that trans-RSV would inhibit TyrRS/PARP1-mediated protective stress response and would instead elicit an opposite effect compared to cis-RSV. Interestingly, most recent studies also confirmed the conversion of trans-RSV and its metabolites to cis-RSV in the physiological context. Therefore, the finding that cis-RSV and trans-RSV induce two distinct conformations of TyrRS with opposite effects on the auto-PARylation of PARP1 provides a potential molecular basis for the observed dichotomic effects of RSV under different experimental paradigms. However, the fact that natural RSV exists as a diastereomeric mixture of its cis and trans isomers and cis-RSV is also a physiologically relevant isoform has not yet gained much scientific attention.

Abstract
The health benefits of the natural polyphenol trans‐resveratrol may play an important role in preventing a variety of diseases. Resveratrol has been shown to reduce blood pressure and improve metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Our previous studies examined the role of K+ channels in the vasorelaxation responses to trans‐resveratrol in the rat tail artery. During these studies, we uncovered a novel transient contraction prior to the sustained relaxation effect of trans‐resveratrol. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the role of the endothelium in these vascular contraction and relaxation responses to trans‐resveratrol. We additionally sought to determine if the cis‐isomer of resveratrol exerts any of the same vascular effects as the trans‐isomer. The vascular responses to trans‐resveratrol were examined in rat tail arteries with intact or denuded endothelium over a 2‐hr period. Additionally, the vascular responses to trans‐ and cis‐resveratrol were compared in rat tail arteries with intact endothelium. Both the transient contractile response and the persistent relaxation response to trans‐resveratrol were similar in the arterial rings with intact or denuded endothelium. There was a significant correlation between the initial contraction‐enhancing action of trans‐resveratrol and the magnitude of the sustained relaxation for vessels with both intact and denuded endothelium. Moreover, we demonstrated that cis‐resveratrol produced a significantly greater relaxation response as compared to trans‐resveratrol without the initial contractile response. These data demonstrate the role of the vascular smooth muscle in the vascular responses to resveratrol and the potential clinical benefits of the cis‐isomer of resveratrol as compared to the trans‐isomer.

Abstract
Rhaponticin is a stilbenoid glucoside compound, found in medicinal plant of rhubarb
rhizomes. Rhapontigenin (RHAG), the stilbene aglycone metabolite of rhaponticin, has
shown various biological activities including anticancer activities to act a potential human cytochrome
P450 inhibitor, antihyperlipidemic effect, anti-allergic action, antioxidant and antibacterial
activities. Moreover, it was reported to scavenge intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species
(ROS), the 1,1-Diphenyl-2-Picrylliydrazyl (DPPH) radical, and Hydrogen Peroxide
(H2O2). Meanwhile, RHAG exhibited the inhibitory activity for the synthesis of DNA, RNA
and protein, and also presented the capacity of inducing morphological changes and apoptosis
of C. albicans. Here, the structure, pharmacokinetics, pharmacological effects as well as underlying
mechanisms of rhaponticin and its metabolite, RHAG, have been extensively reviewed.
This review will provide a certain reference value for developing the therapeutic drug
of rhaponticin or RHAG.

Resveratrol's Impact on Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Hyporeactivity: The Role of Rho-Kinase Inhibition. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:9012071.

Abstract
Resveratrol (3,5,4′-trihydroxystilbene) is a chemical compound belonging to the group of polyphenols and flavonoids. The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of resveratrol application along with certain modulating factors, such as 8Br-cGMP-activator of cGMP-dependent protein kinases, HA-1077-Rho-kinase inhibitor, and Bay K8644-calcium channel agonist, on VMSCs constriction triggered by phenylephrine. Resveratrol at a dose of 10 mg/kg/24 h administered for 4 weeks reduced the reactivity of the arteries to the pressure action of catecholamines. Tests performed after four weeks of resveratrol administration showed that 8Br-cGMP at the concentrations of 0.01 mM/l and 0.1 mM/l intensifies this effect. Simultaneous resveratrol and Bay K8644 administration led to a significant decrease in contractility compared to the vessels collected from animals (Res−). This effect was dependent on the concentration of Bay K8644. Resveratrol seems to be counteractive against Bay K8644 by blocking L-type calcium channels. As the concentration of HA-1077 increased, there was a marked hyporeactivity of the vessels to the pressure effects of phenylephrine. The results indicate synergy between resveratrol and Rho-kinase inhibition.

Abstract
In the cardiovascular system, Ca2+ controls cardiac excitation-contraction coupling and vascular contraction and dilation. Disturbances in intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis induce malfunctions of the cardiovascular system, including cardiac pump dysfunction, arrhythmia, remodeling, and apoptosis, as well as hypertension and impairment of vascular reactivity. Therefore, developing drugs and strategies manipulating Ca2+ handling are highly valued in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Resveratrol (Res) and polydatin (PD), a Res glucoside, have been well established to have beneficial effects on improving cardiovascular function. Studies from our laboratory and others have demonstrated that they exhibit inotropic effects on normal heart and therapeutic effects on hypertension, cardiac ischemia/reperfusion injury, hypertrophy, and heart failure by manipulating Ca2+ mobilization. The actions of Res and PD on Ca2+ signals delicately manipulated by multiple Ca2+ -handling proteins are pleiotropic and somewhat controversial, depending on cellular species and intracellular oxidative status. Here, we focus on the effects of Res and PD on controlling Ca2+ homeostasis in the heart and vasculature under normal and diseased conditions and highlight the key direct and indirect molecules mediating these effects.

Abstract
AIMS Intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) is known to play an important role in cancer development and growth. Resveratrol (Res) is a stilbene polyphenol occurring in several plant species and known for various possible beneficial effects, including its ability to inhibit proliferation and to induce apoptosis in cancer cells. This study was designed to determine whether Res affects Ca(2+) signaling in cancer cells. MAIN METHODS We used the REN human mesothelioma cell line, as an in vitro cancer cell model, and the non-malignant human mesothelial MeT5A cell line, as normal cell model. Cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration was measured by the fluorescent indicator Fura-2. Immunofluorescence, Western blot, and siRNA technique were employed to assess the involvement of T-type Ca(2+) channels. Cell viability was determined by the calcein assay. KEY FINDINGS REN cells transiently exposed to 1-10μM Res showed increasing peaks of Ca(2+) that were absent in Ca(2+)-free medium and were reduced by non-selective (Ni(2+)), and highly selective (NNC 55-0396) T-type Ca(2+) channels antagonist, and by siRNA knockout of Cav3.2T-type Ca(2+) channel gene. Dose-dependent curve of Res-induced Ca(2+) peaks showed a rightward shift in normal MeT-5A mesothelial cells (EC50=4.9μM) with respect to REN cells (EC50=2.7μM). Moreover, incubation with 3 and 10μM Res for 7days resulted in cell growth inhibition for REN, but not for MeT-5A cells. SIGNIFICANCE Res induces Ca(2+) influx, possibly mediated through T-type Ca(2+) channels, with significant selectivity towards mesothelioma cells, suggesting a possible use as an adjuvant to chemotherapy drugs for mesothelioma clinical treatment.

Abstract
Plants containing resveratrol have been used effectively in traditional medicine for over 2000 years. It can be found in some plants, fruits, and derivatives, such as red wine. Therefore, it can be administered by either consuming these natural products or intaking nutraceutical pills. Resveratrol exhibits a wide range of beneficial properties, and this may be due to its molecular structure, which endow resveratrol with the ability to bind to many biomolecules. Among these properties its activity as an anticancer agent, a platelet antiaggregation agent, and an antioxidant, as well as its antiaging, antifrailty, anti-inflammatory, antiallergenic, and so forth activities, is worth highlighting. These beneficial biological properties have been extensively studied in humans and animal models, both in vitro and in vivo. The issue of bioavailability of resveratrol is of paramount importance and is determined by its rapid elimination and the fact that its absorption is highly effective, but the first hepatic step leaves little free resveratrol. Clarifying aspects like stability and pharmacokinetics of resveratrol metabolites would be fundamental to understand and apply the therapeutic properties of resveratrol.

The sustained delivery of resveratrol or a defined grape powder inhibits new blood vessel formation in a mouse model of choroidal neovascularization. Molecules 2014; 19:17578-603.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine whether resveratrol or a defined, reconstituted grape powder can attenuate the formation of new blood vessels in a mouse model of choroidal neovascularization (CNV). To accomplish this objective, C57BL/6J mice were randomized into control or treatment groups which received either resveratrol or grape powder by daily oral gavage, resveratrol or grape powder delivered ad libitum through the drinking water, or resveratrol by slow release via implanted osmotic pumps. A laser was used to rupture Bruch’s membrane to induce CNV which was then detected in sclerochoroidal eyecups stained with antibodies against intercellular adhesion molecule-2. CNV area was measured using fluorescence microscopy and Image J software. Ad libitum delivery of both resveratrol and grape powder was shown to significantly reduce the extent of CNV by 68% and 57%, respectively. Parallel experiments conducted in vitro demonstrated that resveratrol activates p53 and inactivates Akt/protein kinase B in choroidal endothelial cells, contributing to its anti-proliferative and anti-migratory properties. In addition resveratrol was shown to inhibit the formation of endothelial cell networks, augmenting its overall anti-angiogenic effects. The non-toxic nature of resveratrol makes it an especially attractive candidate for the prevention and/or treatment of CNV.

Abstract
The thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle reabsorbs 30% of the NaCl filtered through the glomerulus. Nitric oxide (NO) produced by NO synthase 3 (NOS3) inhibits NaCl absorption by this segment. Resveratrol, a polyphenol, has beneficial cardiovascular and renal effects, many of which are mediated by NO. Resveratrol increases intracellular Ca2+ (Cai) and AMP kinase (AMPK) and NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin1 (SIRT1) activities, all of which could activate NO production. We hypothesized that resveratrol stimulates NO production by thick ascending limbs via a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent mechanism. To test this, the effect of resveratrol on NO bioavailability was measured in thick ascending limb suspensions. Cai was measured in single perfused thick ascending limbs. SIRT1 activity and expression were measured in thick ascending limb lysates. Resveratrol (100 µM) increased NO bioavailability in thick ascending limb suspensions by 1.3±0.2 AFU/mg/min (p<0.03). The NOS inhibitor L-NAME blunted resveratrol-stimulated NO bioavailability by 96±11% (p<0.03). The superoxide scavenger tempol had no effect. Resveratrol elevated Cai from 48±7 to 135±24 nM (p<0.01) in single tubules. In Ca2+-free media, the resveratrol-induced increase in NO was blunted by 60±20% (p<0.05) and the rise in Cai reduced by 80%. Calmodulin inhibition prevented the resveratrol-induced increase in NO (p<0.002). AMPK inhibition had no effect. Resveratrol did not increase SIRT1 activity. We conclude that resveratrol increases NO production in thick ascending limbs via a Ca2+/calmodulin dependent mechanism, and SIRT1 and AMPK do not participate. Resveratrol-stimulated NO production in thick ascending limbs may account for part of its beneficial effects.

[PMID: 25140155 PMCID: PMC4122172 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2014.00292] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2014] [Accepted: 07/19/2014] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Hypertension affects over 25% of the global population and is associated with grave and often fatal complications that affect many organ systems. Although great advancements have been made in the clinical assessment and treatment of hypertension, the cause of hypertension in over 90% of these patients is unknown, which hampers the development of targeted and more effective treatment. The etiology of hypertension involves multiple pathological processes and organ systems, however one unifying feature of all of these contributing factors is oxidative stress. Once the body's natural anti-oxidant defense mechanisms are overwhelmed, reactive oxygen species (ROS) begin to accumulate in the tissues. ROS play important roles in normal regulation of many physiological processes, however in excess they are detrimental and cause widespread cell and tissue damage as well as derangements in many physiological processes. Thus, control of oxidative stress has become an attractive target for pharmacotherapy to prevent and manage hypertension. Resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-Trihydroxystilbene) is a naturally occurring polyphenol which has anti-oxidant effects in vivo. Many studies have shown anti-hypertensive effects of resveratrol in different pre-clinical models of hypertension, via a multitude of mechanisms that include its function as an anti-oxidant. However, results have been mixed and in some cases resveratrol has no effect on blood pressure. This may be due to the heavy emphasis on peripheral vasodilator effects of resveratrol and virtually no investigation of its potential renal effects. This is particularly troubling in the arena of hypertension, where it is well known and accepted that the kidney plays an essential role in the long term regulation of arterial pressure and a vital role in the initiation, development and maintenance of chronic hypertension. It is thus the focus of this review to discuss the potential of resveratrol as an anti-hypertensive treatment via amelioration of oxidative stress within the framework of the fundamental physiological principles of long term regulation of arterial blood pressure.

Abstract
Resveratrol is a naturally occurring compound contributing to cellular defense mechanisms in plants. Its use as a nutritional component and/or supplement in a number of diseases, disorders, and syndromes such as chronic diseases of the central nervous system, cancer, inflammatory diseases, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases has prompted great interest in the underlying molecular mechanisms of action. The present review focuses on resveratrol, specifically its isomer trans-resveratrol, and its effects on intracellular calcium signaling mechanisms. As resveratrol's mechanisms of action are likely pleiotropic, its effects and interactions with key signaling proteins controlling cellular calcium homeostasis are reviewed and discussed. The clinical relevance of resveratrol's actions on excitable cells, transformed or cancer cells, immune cells and retinal pigment epithelial cells are contrasted with a review of the molecular mechanisms affecting calcium signaling proteins on the plasma membrane, cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. The present review emphasizes the correlation between molecular mechanisms of action that have recently been identified for resveratrol and their clinical implications.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a naturally occurring polyphenol found in some fruits and especially in grapes, has been reported to provide diverse health benefits. Resveratrol's mechanism of action is the subject of many investigations, and some studies using the ratiometric calcium indicator Fura-2 suggest that it modulates cellular calcium responses. In the current study, contradictory cellular calcium responses to resveratrol applied at concentrations exceeding 10 μM were observed during in vitro imaging studies depending on the calcium indicator used, with Fura-2 indicating an increase in intracellular calcium while Fluo-4 and the calcium biosensor YC3.60 indicated no response. When cells loaded with Fura-2 were treated with 100 μM resveratrol, excitation at 340 nm resulted in a large intensity increase at 510 nm, but the expected concurrent decline with 380 nm excitation was not observed. Pre-treatment of cells with the calcium chelator BAPTA-AM did not prevent a rise in the 340/380 ratio when resveratrol was present, but it did prevent an increase in 340/380 when ATP was applied, suggesting that the resveratrol response was an artifact. Cautious data interpretation is recommended from imaging experiments using Fura-2 concurrently with resveratrol in calcium imaging experiments.

Resveratrol exacerbates both autoimmune and viral models of multiple sclerosis. THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PATHOLOGY 2013; 183:1390-1396.

Abstract
The polyphenol compound resveratrol is reported to have multiple functions, including neuroprotection, and no major adverse effects have been reported. Although the neuroprotective effects have been associated with sirtuin 1 activation by resveratrol, the mechanisms by which resveratrol exerts such functions are a matter of controversy. We examined whether resveratrol can be neuroprotective in two models of multiple sclerosis: experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus-induced demyelinating disease (TMEV-IDD). EAE was induced in C57BL/6 mice, which were fed a control diet or a diet containing resveratrol during either the induction or effector phase or through the whole course of EAE. SJL/J mice were infected with TMEV and fed a control diet or a diet containing resveratrol during the chronic phase of TMEV-IDD. In EAE, all groups of mice treated with resveratrol had more severe clinical signs than the control group. In particular, resveratrol treatment during the induction phase resulted in the most severe EAE, both clinically and histologically. Similarly, in the viral model, the mice treated with resveratrol developed significantly more severe TMEV-IDD than the control group. Thus, surprisingly, the resveratrol treatment significantly exacerbated demyelination and inflammation without neuroprotection in the central nervous system in both models. Our findings indicate that caution should be exercised in potential therapeutic applications of resveratrol in human inflammatory demyelinating diseases, including multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
Resveratrol (REV) is a naturally occurring phytoalexin that inhibits neuronal K+ channels; however, the molecular mechanisms behind the effects of REV and the relevant α-subunit are not well defined. With the use of patch-clamp technique, cultured cerebellar granule cells, and HEK-293 cells transfected with the Kv2.1 and Kv2.2 α-subunits, we investigated the effect of REV on Kv2.1 and Kv2.2 α-subunits. Our data demonstrated that REV significantly suppressed Kv2.2 but not Kv2.1 currents with a fast, reversible, and mildly concentration-dependent manner and shifted the activation or inactivation curve of Kv2.2 channels. Activating or inhibiting the cAMP/PKA pathway did not abolish the inhibition of Kv2.2 current by REV. In contrast, activation of PKC with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate mimicked the inhibitory effect of REV on Kv2.2 by modifying the activation or inactivation properties of Kv2.2 channels and eliminated any further inhibition by REV. PKC and PKC-α inhibitor completely eliminated the REV-induced inhibition of Kv2.2. Moreover, the effect of REV on Kv2.2 was reduced by preincubation with antagonists of GPR30 receptor and shRNA for GPR30 receptor. Western blotting results indicated that the levels of PKC-α and PKC-β were significantly increased in response to REV application. Our data reveal, for the first time, that REV inhibited Kv2.2 currents through PKC-dependent pathways and a nongenomic action of the oestrogen receptor GPR30.

Abstract
Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol which can be found in many plants and fruits, such as peanuts, mulberries, blueberries and, above all, in grapes and red wine. Its synthesis is regulated by the presence of stressful factors, such as fungal contamination and ultra-violet radiation. In plants, it plays a role as a phytoalexin, showing a capacity to inhibit the development of certain infections. Plant extracts which contain resveratrol have been employed by traditional medicine for more than 2000 years. Resveratrol was first isolated, and its properties were initially studied with scientific methods, thirty years ago. Its in vitro properties have been extensively studied and demonstrated. It is worth highlighting its activity as an anti-cancer agent, platelet anti-aggregation agent, anti-inflammatory, antiallergenic, etc. The activity of its in vivo properties are not so clear. There are many studies that report benefits on the cardiovascular system, illnesses such as diabetes, and in longevity. However, other authors did not find any agreement between in vitro and in vivo studies. This discrepancy is due to the bioavailability of resveratrol. After an oral dose, it has been demonstrated that the absorption is very high, but the metabolic pathways leave just a little free resveratrol in blood, therefore the bioavailability in the target tissues is very low and the concentrations used in in vitro studies are not found in these tissues. Thus, resveratrol is a very active molecule for maintaining health, but due to the low bioavailability not all the in vitro effects can be translated to in vivo. This opens a new potential approach, seeking derivatives of resveratrol that can be measured in the desired tissues.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of resveratrol on rat portal vein (RPV) contractility without endothelium. Contractions were produced by electrical field stimulation of perivascular nerves (EFS), norepinephrine (NE), adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), high K(+) solution and by calcium chloride (CaCl2 ) in Ca(2+) -free and high K(+) , Ca(2+) -free solution. The EFS-evoked contractions were more sensitive to resveratrol and to NS1619-selective openers of big calcium-sensitive (BKCa ) channels, than NE-evoked contractions. Effects of resveratrol on the ATP-evoked contractions were weak. Blockers of BKCa channels partly inhibited the effect of resveratrol only in EFS-contracted preparations. Western blotting showed that RPV expressed KCa 1.1 protein. Inhibitors of ATP- and voltage-sensitive K(+) channels did not modify the effects of resveratrol. None of the antagonists of K(+) channels affected the resveratrol inhibition of NE-evoked contractions and effect of high concentrations of resveratrol on the EFS-evoked contractions. Resveratrol more potently inhibited CaCl2 than potassium chloride contractions of RPV. Thus, BKCa channels partly mediate the inhibitory effect of resveratrol on the neurogenic contractions of RPV. The smooth muscle Ca(2+) channels and/or Ca(2+) mobilizing through cells might be involved in the effects of resveratrol on the contractility of RPV. Our results are important for better understanding the impact of resveratrol on the portal circulation.

Abstract
Despite a large number of studies, the mechanism by which 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) induces vasorelaxation is not fully understood. The comparison between results obtained in different vessels or species has often been the source of conflicting reports. In order to shed more light onto this mechanism, we studied the effects of forskolin in phenylephrine-pre-contracted endothelium-denuded rat aorta and measured cAMP levels in rat aortic myocytes by enzyme-immunoassay. Nanomolar forskolin relaxed phenylephrine-induced contractions. This effect was mimicked by dibutyryl-cAMP and was potentiated by rolipram or a p38-mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38-MAPK) inhibitor (SB-203580). Nifedipine and verapamil partially relaxed phenylephrine-induced contractions, while further application of cAMP-elevating agents fully relaxed these contractions. In Ca(2+)-free extracellular solution, forskolin reduced phenylephrine-induced transient contractions and reduced the Ca(2+)-induced contraction after depletion of intracellular stores. Nanomolar concentrations of forskolin increased basal cAMP levels only in the presence of rolipram or phenylephrine, which did not modify intracellular levels of cAMP by themselves. In conclusion, relaxation by cAMP is mediated in part by decrease of depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) stores and inhibition of capacitative calcium entry. This study provides the first evidence that inhibition of PDE4 or p38-MAPK potentiates the vasodilator effect of cAMP-elevating agents in rat aortic myocytes.

Abstract
The hydrolysis of ATP drives virtually all of the energy-requiring processes in living cells. A prerequisite of living cells is that the concentration of ATP needs to be maintained at sufficiently high levels to sustain essential cellular functions. In eukaryotic cells, the AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) cascade is one of the systems that have evolved to ensure that energy homoeostasis is maintained. AMPK is activated in response to a fall in ATP, and recent studies have suggested that ADP plays an important role in regulating AMPK. Once activated, AMPK phosphorylates a broad range of downstream targets, resulting in the overall effect of increasing ATP-producing pathways whilst decreasing ATP-utilizing pathways. Disturbances in energy homoeostasis underlie a number of disease states in humans, e.g. Type 2 diabetes, obesity and cancer. Reflecting its key role in energy metabolism, AMPK has emerged as a potential therapeutic target. In the present review we examine the recent progress aimed at understanding the regulation of AMPK and discuss some of the latest developments that have emerged in key areas of human physiology where AMPK is thought to play an important role.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a polyphenol in red wine, has been reported as a calorie restriction mimetic with potential antiaging and antidiabetogenic properties. It is widely consumed as a nutritional supplement, but its mechanism of action remains a mystery. Here, we report that the metabolic effects of resveratrol result from competitive inhibition of cAMP-degrading phosphodiesterases, leading to elevated cAMP levels. The resulting activation of Epac1, a cAMP effector protein, increases intracellular Ca(2+) levels and activates the CamKKβ-AMPK pathway via phospholipase C and the ryanodine receptor Ca(2+)-release channel. As a consequence, resveratrol increases NAD(+) and the activity of Sirt1. Inhibiting PDE4 with rolipram reproduces all of the metabolic benefits of resveratrol, including prevention of diet-induced obesity and an increase in mitochondrial function, physical stamina, and glucose tolerance in mice. Therefore, administration of PDE4 inhibitors may also protect against and ameliorate the symptoms of metabolic diseases associated with aging.

Abstract
PURPOSE Resveratrol has been shown to have vasoprotective effects by upregulating oxidative defense mechanisms in a variety of pathophysiological conditions. However, the effect of resveratrol on diabetic oxidative stress and vascular and metabolic abnormalities is not completely understood. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate whether long-term resveratrol supplementation has a protective effect on vascular function and integrity in association with metabolic parameters and oxidative stress in insulin-dependent diabetes. METHODS Diabetes was induced in rabbits with alloxan and maintained for 8 weeks. We used a resveratrol dose of 5 mg/L (10 weeks, starting 14 days before alloxan injection) and 50 mg/L (8 or 10 weeks, starting concomitantly or 14 days before alloxan injection) in the drinking water of rabbits. RESULTS Relaxation to acetylcholine was impaired (control 75.6 ± 3.59%, versus diabetic 42.23 ± 2.53%) and contractions to phenylephrine increased (control 136.89 ± 2.27%, versus diabetic 159.37 ± 6.27%) in aortas from diabetic animals. These changes were associated with increased basal or NAD(P)H-induced superoxide production, as well as lipid peroxide and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in the aortic samples. The maximal relaxation to acetylcholine improved by 75.74 ± 9.04% in diabetic rabbits treated with resveratrol. The increased contractions to phenylephrine were not restored to control values after resveratrol treatments, but sensitivity to the contractions tended to decrease. Resveratrol increased nitrite/nitrate levels and suppressed basal or NAD(P)H-induced superoxide production and lipid peroxide levels in the aortas. Importantly, resveratrol increased serum insulin levels without affecting blood glucose and the lipid profile in diabetic rabbits. Using electron microscopic examinations, resveratrol was found to markedly protect the endothelial integrity from diabetes. CONCLUSION Overall, there was no noticeable difference between resveratrol treatment groups on the recovery from diabetes. Our results indicate that resveratrol alleviates type 1 diabetes-induced vasculopathy by decreasing vascular oxidative stress and thereby increasing the bioavailability of nitric oxide without changing metabolic abnormalities.

Abstract
AMPK is a ubiquitous sensor of cellular energy status in eukaryotic cells. It is activated by stresses causing ATP depletion and, once activated, maintains energy homeostasis by phosphorylating targets that activate catabolism and inhibit energy-consuming processes. Evidence derived from non-mammalian orthologs suggests that its ancestral role was in the response to starvation for a carbon source. We review recent findings showing that AMPK is activated by ADP as well as AMP, and discuss the mechanism by which binding of these nucleotides prevent its dephosphorylation and inactivation. We also discuss the role of the carbohydrate-binding module on the β subunit and the mechanisms by which it is activated by drugs and xenobiotics such as metformin and resveratrol.

Abstract
SCOPE The aim of this study was to investigate whether the dietary polyphenol trans-resveratrol (t-Resv) increases [Ca(2+)](c) in endothelial cells, leading to a simultaneous augmentation of nitric oxide (NO) biosynthesis. METHODS AND RESULTS We have separately and simultaneously measured [Ca(2+)](c) and NO in human endothelial cells using the Ca(2+) indicator fura-2 and the NO-sensitive fluorescent probe 4,5-diaminofluorescein. In ∼30% of cells, t-Resv (30 μM) induced an increase in [Ca(2+)](c) with a transient as well as sustained component and a simultaneous increase in NO biosynthesis. This effect was reduced by non-selective Ca(2+) channel blockers, inhibition of intracellular Ca(2+) release, inhibition of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and, to a lesser extent, inhibition of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK 1/2) or 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). t-Resv did not modify in vitro eNOS activity, suggesting that the observed stimulation of NO generation proceeds via mobilisation of Ca(2+) and not through direct effects on eNOS. CONCLUSION We therefore show, for the first time, that t-Resv induces a concentration-dependent, simultaneous increase in [Ca(2+)](c) and NO biosynthesis that could be linked to its endothelium-dependent vasorelaxant effect. Under the assumption that t-Resv exhibits similar behaviour in human blood vessels in vivo, the pharmacological properties described here may contribute to the beneficial cardiovascular effects of this polyphenol by improving endothelial function.

Abstract
Isomerization of trans-stilbenes is known to be induced by light. The two isomers have distinct absorption, fluorescence excitation and emission spectra. Resveratrol, 3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene, is a member of the stilbene family. The interest of the scientific community in resveratrol has increased over the last years due to its biomedical properties. Whereas there is a growing confidence that trans-resveratrol is non-toxic, very little is known about the pharmacology of cis-resveratrol. Of this very reason there is considerable interest in knowing the energetics of the trans-cis conversion. Cis-resveratrol is characterized by a large fluorescence quantum yield when compared to trans-resveratrol. In the present paper we report a detailed analysis of the spectral changes induced in trans-resveratrol upon 260 nm excitation for different time periods. Spectral changes have been monitored with UV-visible absorption and steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy at pH 4 at 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 °C. Continuous 260 nm excitation induces a blue shift in the absorption and fluorescence excitation spectra of resveratrol and a 14 nm blue shift in its fluorescence emission. The photoisomerization yield is reported as a function of 260 nm excitation time. 330 min continuous excitation led to ~60% isomerization yield. The kinetics of trans-cis isomerization has been monitored following the increase in fluorescence quantum yield upon continuous 260 nm excitation of trans-resveratrol. The study was carried out at the above mentioned temperatures in order to obtain the Arrhenius activation energy of photoisomerization. Activation energy and pre-exponential factor were 3.7 ± 0.3 kcal.mol(-1) and 10.6 ± 1.6 s(-1), respectively. The activation energy is comparable with previously reported values for the photoisomerization of other stilbenes.

Abstract
Skin is exposed to both endogenous and environmental oxidant agents, leading to the harmful generation of reactive oxygen species. Particular interest has been pointed on plant antioxidants, such as resveratrol, because of their wide-ranging biological activity and clinical potential. Resveratrol exerts antioxidant, metabolism-regulating and pro-apoptotic/anti-cancer effects on a variety of experimental models and has been suggested to protect skin from ultraviolet-induced photodamaging and photoaging. In parallel, also the biological significance of p66Shc, a member of the Src Homologue and Collagene homologue family with redox activity, is getting further attention. Because of the striking intersection among the activities of resveratrol with those of p66Shc, we investigated whether resveratrol would activate p66Shc in human immortalised keratinocytes (HaCaT cells), a well known and largely used model for skin keratinocytes. HaCaT cells were treated with resveratrol (10-150 μm) for different times. The effect of resveratrol on the proliferation of HaCaT cells and the activation of ERK1/2, AKT, and p66Shc was investigated by cell counting, fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and western blot analysis of total or immunoprecipitated cell extracts. In HaCaT cells, resveratrol induces dose- and time-dependent growth arrest, p66Shc-Ser36 phosphorylation, ERK1/2 phosphorylation and AKT dephosphorylation. Finally, we showed that resveratrol-induced p66Shc-Ser36 phosphorylation is dependent on ERK1/2 activation. Interestingly, these resveratrol-induced molecular effects were associated with reduced adhesion and reversible growth arrest rather than cell death pathways. This is the first evidence linking resveratrol with p66Shc and suggests that p66Shc may contribute to the effect of resveratrol on cell proliferation and function in the outermost layer of the skin.

Abstract
Alzheimer disease is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptide deposition into cerebral amyloid plaques. The natural polyphenol resveratrol promotes anti-aging pathways via the activation of several metabolic sensors, including the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Resveratrol also lowers Abeta levels in cell lines; however, the underlying mechanism responsible for this effect is largely unknown. Moreover, the bioavailability of resveratrol in the brain remains uncertain. Here we show that AMPK signaling controls Abeta metabolism and mediates the anti-amyloidogenic effect of resveratrol in non-neuronal and neuronal cells, including in mouse primary neurons. Resveratrol increased cytosolic calcium levels and promoted AMPK activation by the calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase-beta. Direct pharmacological and genetic activation of AMPK lowered extracellular Abeta accumulation, whereas AMPK inhibition reduced the effect of resveratrol on Abeta levels. Furthermore, resveratrol inhibited the AMPK target mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) to trigger autophagy and lysosomal degradation of Abeta. Finally, orally administered resveratrol in mice was detected in the brain where it activated AMPK and reduced cerebral Abeta levels and deposition in the cortex. These data suggest that resveratrol and pharmacological activation of AMPK have therapeutic potential against Alzheimer disease.

Abstract
Recently it has been suggested that resveratrol relaxes different isolated arteries. The present study addressed the question whether different ion channels are involved in the endothelium-independent mechanism of vasodilatation induced by resveratrol. For that purpose, we tested the action of resveratrol on the rat mesenteric artery without endothelium. Resveratrol induced concentration-dependent relaxation of rat mesenteric artery. Among the K(+)-channel blockers, 4-amynopiridine (4-AP) moderately antagonized the resveratrol-induced relaxation, while glibenclamide, tetraethylammonium chloride, charybdotoxin, margatoxin, and barium chloride did not inhibit resveratrol-induced vasorelaxation. In rings, precontracted with 100 mM K(+), the relaxant responses to resveratrol were highly significantly shifted to the right compared to those obtained in rings precontracted with phenylephrine, but resveratrol-induced maximal relaxation was only slightly affected. In order to minimize the influence of K(+) channels and voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels (VGCCs) in vascular smooth muscle, the third contraction was made by 100 mM K(+) in the presence of nifedipine. The relaxant response to resveratrol was abolished. Thus, the mechanism of vasorelaxation induced by resveratrol probably involves activation of 4-AP-sensitive K(+) channels. Its ability to completely relax the mesenteric artery precontracted with K(+)-rich solution suggests that K(+) channel-independent mechanism(s) are involved in its vasorelaxant effect. It seems that interaction with VGCCs plays a part in this K(+) channel-independent effect of resveratrol.
