Abstract
CONTEXT This theoretical study explores the antioxidant activity of five bromophenol analogs, with a particular focus on their interaction with different solvent environments of varying polarities. Key findings include the correlation between increased solvent polarity and enhanced antioxidant activity of these analogs, comparable in some instances to ascorbic acid. Notably, compound 5, developed by our research team, demonstrates superior antioxidant activity in both lipid and aqueous solutions, surpassing that of ascorbic acid and other tested analogs. This research contributes to the understanding of bromophenol analogs, presenting the first known kinetic and chemical stability data such as rate constants, pKa values, and branching ratios for reactions with the methylperoxyl radical (CH3OO•). METHODS The computational analyses were conducted using the Gaussian 09 software suite at the M05-2X/6-31 + G(d) computational level. These analyses employed conventional transition state theory to account for various potential mechanisms and effects of solvent polarity on the antioxidant activities of bromophenol analogs. The study meticulously calculated enthalpy under standard conditions (298.15 K and 1 atm) with necessary thermodynamic corrections. Additionally, the Quantum Mechanics-based Test for Overall Radical Scavenging Activity (QMORSA) protocol guided the evaluation of radical scavenging activity, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of the antioxidant potential of the compounds.

Abstract
CONTEXT In this study, we investigated the antioxidant potential of a novel ascorbic acid analog, DsD, assessing its interactions with the methylperoxyl (CH3OO·) radical in aqueous and lipid environments. Our focus was on understanding the acid-base equilibrium and how pH affects DsD's primary reaction mechanisms. Our findings indicate a marked preference for hydrogen atom transfer in lipid media, contrasting with sequential proton loss electron transfer (SPLET) in aqueous solutions. Remarkably, DsD's radical scavenging activity significantly outperforms ascorbic acid, being 4.05 and 9469.70 times more potent in polar and lipid contexts, respectively. This suggests DsD's superior efficacy as an antioxidant, potentially offering enhanced protection in biological systems. Additionally, we have demonstrated DsD's synthetic feasibility through a straightforward condensation reaction between ascorbic acid and 1,2-diaminoethane, followed by comprehensive physicochemical and spectroscopic characterization. METHODS All computational analyses in this study were conducted using the Gaussian 09 software suite, employing the M05-2X functional and the 6-31 + G(d) basis set. Enthalpy calculations were executed under standard conditions (298.15 K and 1 atm), incorporating appropriate thermodynamic corrections. Rate constants were evaluated using transition state theory (TST), and the overall assessment of radical scavenging activity was guided by the Quantum Mechanics-based Test for Overall Radical Scavenging Activity (QMORSA) protocol.

Abstract
Levodopa (L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, L-Dopa) alleviates the symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), yet prolonged usage may give rise to severe adverse effects. Resveratrol (RSV) is a potent antioxidant, anticancer and anti-inflammatory agent. And a variety of polyphenol antioxidant compounds derived from RSV combined with levodopa have demonstrated neuroprotective activity against neuronal cell death. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of this combination of RSV and L-Dopa on the survival rate, growth status, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) of MES23.5 dopamine (DA) neuron cells. In this study, we induced MPP+ in MES23.5 dopamine neuron cells and observed their survival rate, growth status, ROS content, as well as the effect of RSV combined with L-Dopa on cell survival. We also measured malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity levels as indicators of mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, and oxidative damage in the cells. Our results indicated that the MES23.5 dopamine neurons had decreased survival, poor growth status, and increased ROS content after MPP+ induction. Moreover, we found that MDA levels were elevated, and SOD activity levels were decreased, suggesting that the cells experienced abnormal mitochondrial function. However, when RSV was combined with L-Dopa, the cells showed a reduced level of MPP + -induced oxidative damage, with a more significant inhibitory effect observed in the RSV group at a concentration of 50 μmol/L. In conclusion, we found that the effects of co-administration of RSV with L-Dopa (100 μmol/L) was more effective than L-Dopa administered at the high dose. Thus, we found that RSV has the potential to reduce the dose of L-Dopa required to improve PD symptoms.

BIOMEMBRANES 2024; 1866:184212. [PMID: 37774995 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamem.2023.184212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
Resveratrol is one of the most popular phytoalexins, which naturally occurs in grapes and red wine. This compound not only has beneficial effects on the human body, especially on the cardiovascular system, but also has antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal properties. In addition, resveratrol may have therapeutic effects against various types of cancer. The mechanism of action of resveratrol is not fully understood, but it is suspected that one of the most important steps is its interaction with the cell membrane and changing its molecular organization. Therefore, in the present study, we investigated the effects of resveratrol at different concentrations (0-75 μM) on model membranes composed of POPC, SM and cholesterol, in systems with different cholesterol contents and a constant POPC/SM molar ratio (1:1). Our tests included systems containing 5, 15 and 33.3 mol% cholesterol. Tests were carried out for monolayers using the Langmuir monolayer technique supported by Brewster angle microscopy and penetration experiments. Bilayer (liposome) experiments included calcein release, steady-state DPH fluorescence anisotropy and partition coefficients. The results showed that resveratrol interacts with model cell membranes (lipid monolayers and lipid bilayers), and its incorporation into membranes is accompanied by changes in their physicochemical parameters, such as lipid packing, fluidity and permeability. Furthermore, we showed that the cholesterol content of the membrane significantly affects the degree of incorporation of resveratrol into the model membrane, which may indicate that the molecular mechanism of action of this compound is closely related to its interactions with lipid rafts, domains responsible for regulating various cellular functions.

Abstract
Resveratrol (Resv) is considered to exert a beneficial impact due to its radical scavenger, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties through several mechanisms that could include its interaction with the cell plasma membrane. To address this issue, we investigated the influence of Resv on membrane lipid order and organization in large unilamellar vesicles composed of different lipids and ratios. The studied lipid membrane models were composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC) species (either palmitoyl-docosahexaenoyl phosphatidylcholine (PDPC) or palmitoyl-oleoyl phosphatidylcholine (POPC)), sphingomyelin (SM) and cholesterol (Chol). This study found that the addition of Resv resulted in complex membrane reorganization depending on the degree of fatty acid unsaturation at the sn-2 position, and the Lipid/Resv and SM/Chol ratios. Resv rigidified POPC-containing membranes and increased liquid-ordered (Lo) domain formation in 40/40/20 POPC/SM/Chol mixtures as this increase was lower at a 33/33/34 ratio. In contrast, Resv interacted with PDPC/SM/Chol mixtures in a bimodal manner by fluidizing/rigidifying the membranes in a dose-dependent way. Lo domain formation upon Resv addition occurred via the following bimodal mode of action: Lo domain size increased at low Resv concentrations; then, Lo domain size decreased at higher ones. To account for the variable effect of Resv, we suggest that it may act as a "spacer" at low doses, with a transition to a more "filler" position in the lipid bulk. We hypothesize that one of the roles of Resv is to tune the lipid order and organization of cell plasma membranes, which is closely linked to important cell functions such as membrane sorting and trafficking.

Abstract
Large-scale screening of molecules in organisms requires high-throughput and cost-effective evaluating tools during preclinical development. Here, a novel in vivo screening strategy combining hierarchically structured biohybrid triboelectric nanogenerators (HB-TENGs) arrays with computational bioinformatics analysis for high-throughput pharmacological evaluation using Caenorhabditis elegans is described. Unlike the traditional methods for behavioral monitoring of the animals, which are laborious and costly, HB-TENGs with micropillars are designed to efficiently convert animals' behaviors into friction deformation and result in a contact-separation motion between two triboelectric layers to generate electrical outputs. The triboelectric signals are recorded and extracted to various bioinformation for each screened compound. Moreover, the information-rich electrical readouts are successfully demonstrated to be sufficient to predict a drug's identity by multiple-Gaussian-kernels-based machine learning methods. This proposed strategy can be readily applied to various fields and is especially useful in in vivo explorations to accelerate the identification of novel therapeutics.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species are known to be involved in various diseases, and antioxidant ingredients are expected to essentially prevent diseases and contribute to improving health. However, antioxidants are easily degraded by enzymes before being absorbed in the intestine, so a means of transport that prevents their degradation in the body is necessary. Exosomes, which play an important role in communication between individual cells, have attracted attention as a new transport carrier of miRNA and DNA, but not yet fully exploited in food research. More recently, exosomes extracted from bovine milk began to be widely used as a cost-effective transport carrier not in clinical medicine but also in functional food materials. To develop practical applications as carriers for functional foods, systematic studies are necessary to clarify the introduction efficiency and the properties of encapsulated substances. In this study, we applied electroporation and incubation to encapsulate antioxidants into the exosomes and studied the encapsulation efficiency into the exosomes and the anticancer activity.

Abstract
Breast cancer is a common and deadly disease that causes tremendous physical, emotional, and financial burden on patients and society. Early-stage breast cancer and less aggressive subtypes have promising prognosis for patients, but in aggressive subtypes, and as cancers progress, treatment options and responses diminish, dramatically decreasing survival. Plants are nutritionally rich and biologically diverse organisms containing thousands of metabolites, some of which have chemopreventive, therapeutic, and sensitizing properties, providing a rich source for drug discovery. In this study we review the current landscape of breast cancer with a central focus on the potential role of phytochemicals for treatment, management, and disease prevention. We discuss the relevance of phytochemical targeting of mitochondria for improved anti-breast cancer efficacy. We highlight current applications of phytochemicals and derivative structures that display anti-cancer properties and modulate cancer mitochondria, while describing future applicability and identifying areas of promise.

Abstract
In this research, resveratrol (RSV)-loaded scaffolds have been prepared to control the release of resveratrol and used to delay hepatic stellate cell (HSC) senescence in vitro. The functional carboxyl group-COOH is first introduced to the surface of poly(ε-caprolactone/d,l-lactide) (P(CL-DLLA)) under the coadministration of ultra-violet (UV) treatment and photo initiator and then resveratrol are conjugated onto the surface of the modified scaffolds through esterification. The characterization of the structure of RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA) shows that resveratrol has been successfully conjugated onto the modified surface. Cell growth exhibits a higher level of cell viability and much more obvious agglomeration on the surface of the synthetic RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA). Meanwhile the activity of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) is downgulated for cells on RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA), which suggests that cell senescence is delayed on RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA). And then it is attested that cells have a lower level of p53 but SIRT1 expression is upregulated on RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA), which might be related to resveratrol release from RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA). It also suggested cell senescence on RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA) has been regulated by p53 and the SIRT1 signaling pathway. In all, the present study shows that RSV-AA-P(CL-DLLA) can be successfully prepared to promote cell growth and delay cell senescence and could be used for cell-based therapy in tissue engineering.

Abstract
The effects of three B-type proanthocyanidin (PA) dimers covering procyanidin B2 (B-0g), procyanidin B2 3'-O-gallate (B-1g), and procyanidin B2 3,3'-di-O-gallate (B-2g) on 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation and the underlying mechanisms were investigated. The results showed that digalloylated B-type PA dimers (B-2g) strongly inhibited 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation through disrupting the integrity of the lipid raft structure and inhibiting the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPα) and then downregulating the expression of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) factors, followed by B-1g, while B-0g had little effect. The different inhibitory effects were mainly due to the difference in the B-type PA dimer structure and the ability to interfere with lipid rafts. The greater the galloylation degree of B-type PA dimers, the stronger the ability to disrupt the lipid raft structure and oppose 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation. In addition, galloylated B-type PA dimers had greater molecular hydrophobicity and topological polarity surface area and could penetrate into the lipid rafts to form multiple hydrogen bonds with the rafts by molecular dynamics simulation. These findings highlighted that the strong lipid raft-perturbing potency of galloylated B-type PA dimers was responsible for inhibition of 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation.

Study of Resveratrol's Interaction with Planar Lipid Models: Insights into Its Location in Lipid Bilayers. MEMBRANES 2021; 11:membranes11020132. [PMID: 33672841 PMCID: PMC7918209 DOI: 10.3390/membranes11020132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Revised: 02/09/2021] [Accepted: 02/10/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
Resveratrol, a polyphenolic molecule found in edible fruits and vegetables, shows a wide range of beneficial effects on human health, including anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-aging properties. Due to its poor water solubility and high liposome-water partition coefficient, the biomembrane seems to be the main target of resveratrol, although the mode of interaction with membrane lipids and its location within the cell membrane are still unclear. In this study, using electrophysiological measurements, we study the interaction of resveratrol with planar lipid membranes (PLMs) of different composition. We found that resveratrol incorporates into palmitoyl-oleoyl-phosphatidylcholine (POPC) and POPC:Ch PLMs and forms conductive units unlike those found in dioleoyl-phosphatidylserine (DOPS):dioleoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) PLMs. The variation of the biophysical parameters of PLMs in the presence of resveratrol provides information on its location within a lipid double layer, thus contributing to an understanding of its mechanism of action.

MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 123:111953. [PMID: 33812581 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2021.111953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2020] [Revised: 01/24/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2021] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
Resveratrol (RES) is a plant extract with excellent antioxidant, biocompatibility, anti-inflammatory and inhibition of platelet aggregation. RES-modified polysulfone (PSF) hemodialysis membranes have been fabricated using an immersion phase transformation method. The antioxidant properties of the blend membranes were evaluated in terms of their 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS+), reactive oxygen species (ROS) free radicals scavenging, total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) of serum and lipid peroxidation inhibition. The observed results of decreasing DPPH and ABTS+ levels, scavenging ROS, significant inhibition of lipid peroxidation and improving the T-AOC of serum all contribute to the recovery of oxidative balance and the use of RES as an antioxidant modifier. The antioxidant stability of PSF/RES blend membranes was also studied. Moreover, the results of blood compatibility experiments showed that the addition of RES improved the blood compatibility of PSF membrane, inhibited the adhesion of red blood cells and platelets; inhibited complement activation; and reduced the blood cells deformation rate. The dialysis simulation experiment indicated that PSF/RES membrane (M-3) can clear 90.33% urea, 89.50% creatinine, 74.60% lysozyme and retention 90.47% BSA. All these results showed the new PSF/RES blend membranes have potential to be used in the field of hemodialysis to improve oxidative stress status in patients.

Abstract
For the first time, a series of highly potent natural product inspired substituted (Z)-3-benzylideneisobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones 28a-t, embraced with electron-withdrawing groups (EWG) and electron-donating groups (EDG) at site I and site II, were prepared and assessed for their in vitro antioxidant activities (DPPH free radical scavenging assay) and arachidonic acid (AA)-induced antiplatelet activities using ascorbic acid (IC50 = 4.57 µg/mL) and aspirin (IC50 = 21.34 µg/mL), as standard references, respectively. In this study, compounds 28f-g, 28k-l and 28q have shown high order of in vitro antioxidant activity. Infact, 28f and 28k were found to show 10-folds and 8-folds more antioxidant activity than ascorbic acid, respectively and was found to be the most active analogues of the series. Similarly, Compounds 28c-g, 28k-l, 28o and 28q-t were recognized as highly potent antiplatelet agents (upto 6-folds) than aspirin. Furthermore, in silico studies of the most active antioxidants 28f, 28k and 28l and very active antiplatelet molecules 28f, 28k, 28l and 28s were carrying out for the validation of the biological results. This is the first detailed study of the discovery of several (Z)-3-benzylideneisobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones as highly potent antioxidants and antiplatelet agents.

Abstract
Resveratrol is a phytochemical that may promote health. However, it has also been reported to be a toxic compound. The molecular mechanism by which resveratrol acts remains unclear. The inhibition of the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) pathway appears to be the molecular mechanism of resveratrol. Taking this into account, we propose that the cytotoxic properties of resveratrol depend on the energy (e.g., carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins) availability in the cells. In this regard, in a condition with low energy accessibility, resveratrol could enhance ATP starvation to lethal levels. In contrast, when cells are supplemented with high quantities of energy and resveratrol, the inhibition of OXPHOS might produce a low-energy environment, mimicking the beneficial effects of caloric restriction. This review suggests that investigating a possible complex relationship between caloric intake and the differential effects of resveratrol on OXPHOS may be justified. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: A low-calorie diet accompanied by significant levels of resveratrol might modify cellular bioenergetics, which could impact cellular viability and enhance the anti-cancer properties of resveratrol.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to improve the solubility of resveratrol (Res) by a self-microemulsifying drug-delivery system (SMEDDS). Through a solubility experiment, the pseudoternary phase diagram and ternary phase diagram were used to optimize the Res SMEDDS formula. The optimum formulation consisted of 5% IPM, 20% PEG400, and 65% Cremophor RH40. The water solubility, stability, in vitro release and antioxidant activity of the Res SMEDDS were characterized. The Res solubility in the SMEDDS was at least 1,000 times compared to that in water. The average droplet size of the microemulsion was 28.00±1.67 nm and uniform distribution. The Res SMEDDS should be stored at low temperature and in the dark to avoid light conditions. Res SMEDDS was able to improve the in vitro release rate of Res, and the in vitro release of Res from Res SMEDDS was significantly faster that of Res powder and unaffected by pH value of media. Antioxidant assays showed that antioxidant activities of Res in Res SMEDDS were unaffected compared to Res powder. Cytotoxicity study indicated that Res SMEDDS at the concentration of less than 100 μM was safe. These results demonstrated the potential use of Res SMEDDS for oral administration of Res.

Abstract
The human red blood cell (RBC) membrane has significant elastic capabilities which can be described measuring typical membrane edge fluctuations and mechanical properties by optical techniques. The RBC elastic properties can be affected by changes in the surrounding media. In an attempt to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of the interaction of resveratrol with the red cell membrane and of its antioxidant capacity the changes in mechanical properties of the RBC membrane were analyzed. These studies were carried out through measurements of RBC membrane fluctuations in the presence of the oxidant agent HClO using thermal fluctuation spectroscopy (TFS). The observed results showed that the elastic capabilities of RBC changed with low concentration of hypochlorous acid but without morphological changes. However, in the presence of resveratrol the deformation and decrease of elastic capabilities induced by HClO on RBC decreased. These in vitro results demonstrated the protective effect of RV against the detrimental effects triggered by HClO upon human erythrocytes.

Abstract
Ibuprofen (IBU) interacts with phosphatidylcholine membranes in three distinct steps as a function of concentration. In a first step (<10 μM), IBU electrostatically adsorbs to the lipid headgroups and gradually decreases the interfacial potential. This first step helps to facilitate the second step (10-300 μM), in which hydrophobic insertion of the drug occurs. The second step disrupts the packing of the lipid acyl chains and expands the area per lipid. In a final step, above 300 μM IBU, the lipid membrane begins to solubilize, resulting in a detergent-like effect. The results described herein were obtained by a combination of fluorescence binding assays, vibrational sum frequency spectroscopy, and Langmuir monolayer compression experiments. By introducing trimethylammonium-propane, phosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidylethanolamine lipids as well as cholesterol, we demonstrated that both the chemistry of the lipid headgroups and the packing of lipid acyl chains can substantially influence the interactions between IBU and the membranes. Moreover, different membrane chemistries can alter particular steps in the binding interaction.

Abstract
Resveratrol (Res), a natural polyphenol present in different plants and vegetables, exhibits potential therapeutic activity with cardioprotective, antineurodegenerative, antioxidant, and antitumor action. In this study, the effect of Res on the mutual interactions between positively charged poly-l-lysine (PLL) and negatively charged dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine/dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol (DPPC/DPPG) membranes was studied using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy supported by principal component analysis (PCA). The interactions between PLL and DPPC/DPPG membranes were strongly affected by the presence of Res molecules. Depending on the Res concentration and method of its supply (through the water or lipid phase) to the studied peptide-membrane systems, the membrane-induced transition of PLL from an α-helix to an extended left-handed polyproline II helix (PPII) occurred at different temperatures, with different cooperativity, or was even completely suppressed. The influence of PLL on the conformational (trans/gauche) state of the hydrocarbon chain region of the lipid membranes and the hydration state of the polar/apolar membrane interface was also modulated by Res, depending on the membrane phase state.

Abstract
Background: Beneficial effects of Resveratrol (RSV) have been demonstrated, including effects on transporters and channels. However, little is known about how RSV influences intestinal transport. The aim of this study was to further characterize the effects of RSV on intestinal transport and the respective mechanisms. Methods: Porcine jejunum and ileum were incubated with RSV (300 µM, 30 min) in Ussing chambers (functional studies) and tissue bathes (detection of protein expression, phosphorylation, association with detergent resistant membranes (DRMs)). Results: RSV reduced alanine and glucose-induced short circuit currents (ΔIsc) and influenced forskolin-induced ΔIsc. The phosphorylation of sodium–glucose-linked transporter 1 (SGLT1), AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), protein kinase A substrates (PKA-S) and liver kinase B1 (LKB1) increased but a causative relation to the inhibitory effects could not directly be established. The DRM association of SGLT1, peptide transporter 1 (PEPT1) and (phosphorylated) Na+/H+-exchanger 3 (NHE3) did not change. Conclusion: RSV influences the intestinal transport of glucose, alanine and chloride and is likely to affect other transport processes. As the effects of protein kinase activation vary between the intestinal localizations, it would appear that increasing cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels are part of the mechanism. Nonetheless, the physiological responses depend on cell type-specific structures.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a natural compound found in red wine and various vegetables, has drawn increasing interest due to its reported benefit in cardiovascular protection, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer therapy. The mechanism by which resveratrol exerts such pleiotropic effects remains unclear. It remains as one of the most discussed polyphenol compounds in the debating "French Paradox". In this study, using molecular dynamics simulations of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayer with resveratrol, we generated a free energy map of resveratrol's location and orientation of inside the lipid bilayer. We found that resveratrol increases the surface area per lipid and decreases membrane thickness, which is the opposite effect of the well-studied cholesterol on liquid phase DPPC. Most importantly, based on the simulation observation that resveratrol has a high probability of forming hydrogen bonds with sn-1 and sn-2 ester groups, we discovered a new mechanism using experimental approach, in which resveratrol protects both sn-1 and sn-2 ester bonds of DPPC and distearoyl phosphatidylcholine (DSPC) from phospholipase A1 (PLA1) and phospholipase A2 (PLA2) cleavage. Our study elucidates the new molecular mechanism of potential health benefits of resveratrol and possibly other similar polyphenols and provides a new paradigm for drug design based on resveratrol and its analogs.

Increasing body of evidence suggests that polyphenols frequently interacting with amyloid aggregates and/or interfering with aggregate species to bind biomembranes may serve as a therapeutic approach for the treatment of amyloid-related diseases. Hence, in the present study, the possible effects of three naturally occurring polyphenols including Curcumin, Quercetin, and Resveratrol on mitochondrial membrane permeabilization induced by Hen Egg White Lysozyme (HEWL) oligomers were investigated. Our results indicated that pre-incubation of mitochondrial homogenate with polyphenols considerably inhibit membrane permeabilization in a concentration dependent manner. In parallel, HEWL oligomers, which were co-incubated with the polyphenols, showed less effectiveness on membrane permeabilization, suggesting that toxicity of oligomers was hindered. Using a range of techniques including fluorescence quenching, Nile red binding assay, zeta potential and size measurements, CD (far- and near-UV) spectroscopy, and molecular docking, we found that the polyphenols, structure-dependently, interact with and induce conformational changes in HEWL oligomers, thereby inhibit their toxicity. We proposed a mechanism by which selected polyphenols induce their protective effects through binding to mitochondria and interfering with HEWL oligomer-membrane interactions and/or by direct interaction with HEWL oligomers, induction of conformational changes, and generating far less toxic species. However, additional studies are needed to elucidate the detailed mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Proanthocyanidins (PAs) have been widely recognized for their broad spectrum of beneficial health effects, which are highly structure-dependent. It was found that PA dimers epicatechin-3-gallate-(4β→8,2β→O→7)-epicatechin-3-gallate (A-type ECG dimer) and epigallocatechin-3-gallate-(4β→,2β→O→7)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (A-type EGCG dimer) inhibit the differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells significantly, whereas epicatechin-(4β→8,2β→O→7)-epicatechin (A-type EC dimer) and epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin (B-type EC dimer) showed little effect in previous work. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. To test whether bilayer perturbation may underlie this diversity of actions, we examined the bilayer-modifying effects of the four dimers in both 3T3-L1 cell and 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine liposome models by using scanning electron microscopy, fluorescent spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and molecular dynamics methods. Our results revealed that A-type ECG and EGCG dimers had a high affinity for the lipid bilayer and could form simultaneous hydrogen bonds (H-bond) with both the surface oxygen acceptors and the deeper inside lipid oxygen atoms. However, A-type and B-type EC dimers contacted only the surface oxygen atoms with limited and significantly fewer H-bonds. A-type ECG and EGCG dimers notably distorted the membrane morphology of 3T3-L1 cells. In the present study, we found there was a high positive correlation between the membrane-disturbing abilities of the four dimers and their 3T3-L1 cell differentiation inhibitory effects as previously reported. This indicated that the strong 3T3-L1 cell differentiation inhibitory effect of A-type ECG and EGCG dimers might be due to their strong bilayer-perturbing potency.

Abstract
Recent research highlights the importance of redox signalling pathway activation by contraction-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) in normal exercise-related cellular and molecular adaptations in skeletal muscle. In this review, we discuss some potentially important redox signalling pathways in skeletal muscle that are involved in acute and chronic responses to contraction and exercise. Specifically, we discuss redox signalling implicated in skeletal muscle contraction force, mitochondrial biogenesis and antioxidant enzyme induction, glucose uptake and muscle hypertrophy. Furthermore, we review evidence investigating the impact of major exogenous antioxidants on these acute and chronic responses to exercise. Redox signalling pathways involved in adaptive responses in skeletal muscle to exercise are not clearly elucidated at present, and further research is required to better define important signalling pathways involved. Evidence of beneficial or detrimental effects of specific antioxidant compounds on exercise adaptations in muscle is similarly limited, particularly in human subjects. Future research is required to not only investigate effects of specific antioxidant compounds on skeletal muscle exercise adaptations, but also to better establish mechanisms of action of specific antioxidants in vivo. Although we feel it remains somewhat premature to make clear recommendations in relation to application of specific antioxidant compounds in different exercise settings, a bulk of evidence suggests that N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is ergogenic through its effects on maintenance of muscle force production during sustained fatiguing events. Nevertheless, a current lack of evidence from studies using performance tests representative of athletic competition and a potential for adverse effects with high doses (>70mg/kg body mass) warrants caution in its use for performance enhancement. In addition, evidence implicates high dose vitamin C (1g/day) and E (≥260 IU/day) supplementation in impairments to some skeletal muscle cellular adaptations to chronic exercise training. Thus, determining the utility of antioxidant supplementation in athletes likely requires a consideration of training and competition periodization cycles of athletes in addition to type, dose and duration of antioxidant supplementation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Adaptive responses to exercise training (ET) are crucial in maintaining physiologic homeostasis and health span. Exercise-induced aerobic bioenergetic reactions in the mitochondria and cytosol increase production of reactive oxygen species, where excess of reactive oxygen species can be scavenged by enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants (AO) to protect against deleterious oxidative stress. Free radicals, however, have recently been recognized as crucial signaling agents that promote adaptive mechanisms to ET, such as mitochondrial biogenesis, AO enzyme activity defense system upregulation, insulin sensitivity, and glucose uptake in the skeletal muscle. Commonly used nonenzymatic AO supplements, such as vitamins C and E, α-lipoic acid, and polyphenols, in combination with ET, have been proposed as ways to prevent exercise-induced oxidative stress and hence improve adaptation responses to endurance training. METHODS During the PubMed search, we selected studies that examined and compared ET effects with and without administration of commonly used AO supplements. RESULTS Preclinical and clinical studies to date have shown inconsistent results indicating either positive or negative effects of endurance training combined with different blends of AO supplements (mostly vitamins C and E and α-lipoic acid) on redox status, mitochondrial biogenesis pathways, and insulin sensitivity. Preclinical reports on ET combined with resveratrol, however, have shown consistent positive effects on exercise performance, mitochondrial biogenesis, and insulin sensitivity, with clinical trials reporting mixed effects. Relevant clinical studies have been few and have used inconsistent results and methodology (types of compounds, combinations, and supplementation time). CONCLUSIONS The future studies should investigate the effects of specific AO and other popular supplements, such as α-lipoic acid and resveratrol, on training effects in humans. Of particular importance are older adults who may be at higher risk of age-related increased oxidative stress, an impaired AO enzyme defense system, and comorbidities such as hypertension, insulin resistance, and diabetes.

Abstract
Resveratrol (3,4′,5-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene, RSV) has emerged as an important molecule in the biomedical area. This is due to its antioxidant and health benefits exerted in mammals. Nonetheless, early studies have also demonstrated its toxic properties toward plant-pathogenic fungi of this phytochemical. Both effects appear to be opposed and caused by different molecular mechanisms. However, the inhibition of cellular respiration is a hypothesis that might explain both toxic and beneficial properties of resveratrol, since this phytochemical: (1) decreases the production of energy of plant-pathogenic organisms, which prevents their proliferation; (2) increases adenosine monophosphate/adenosine diphosphate (AMP/ADP) ratio that can lead to AMP protein kinase (AMPK) activation, which is related to its health effects, and (3) increases the reactive oxygen species generation by the inhibition of electron transport. This pro-oxidant effect induces expression of antioxidant enzymes as a mechanism to counteract oxidative stress. In this review, evidence is discussed that supports the hypothesis that cellular respiration is the main target of resveratrol.

Abstract
Resveratrol is a natural active compound which has been attracting increasing interest due to its several pharmacological effects in cancer prevention, cardiovascular protection and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders and diabetes. The current work investigates how resveratrol affects membrane order and structure, gathering information determined by X-ray scattering analysis, derivative spectrophotometry, fluorescence quenching and fluorescence anisotropy studies. The results indicate that resveratrol is able to be incorporated into DMPC liposome model systems, either fluidizing or stiffening the bilayer, which largely depends on the membrane fluidity state. These findings suggest that the effects of resveratrol resemble cholesterol action on biological membranes, thereby contributing to the regulation of cell membrane structure and fluidity, which may influence the activity of transmembrane proteins and hence control the cell signaling pathways. The regulation of a number of cellular functions, thus may contribute to the pharmacological and therapeutic activities of this compound, explaining its pleiotropic action.

Abstract
Globally, breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among women. The major unresolved problems with metastatic breast cancer is recurrence after receiving objective response to chemotherapy, drug-induced side effects of first line chemotherapy and delayed response to second line of treatment. Unfortunately, very few options are available as third line treatment. It is clear that under such circumstances there is an urgent need for new and effective drugs. Phytochemicals are among the most promising chemopreventive treatment options for the management of cancer. Resveratrol (3,5,4'-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene), a non-flavonoid polyphenol present in several dietary sources, including grapes, berries, soy beans, pomegranate and peanuts, has been shown to possess a wide range of health benefits through its effect on a plethora of molecular targets.The present review encompasses the role of resveratrol and its natural/synthetic analogue in the light of their efficacy against tumor cell proliferation, metastasis, epigenetic alterations and for induction of apoptosis as well as sensitization toward chemotherapeutic drugs in various in vitro and in vivo models of breast cancer. The roles of resveratrol as a phytoestrogen, an aromatase inhibitor and in stem cell therapy as well as adjuvent treatment are also discussed. This review explores the full potential of resveratrol in breast cancer prevention and treatment with current limitations, challenges and future directions of research.

Abstract
The rising incidence of head and neck cancer and the drawbacks of currently used therapeutic strategies such as salvage surgery followed by adjuvant chemo- or radiotherapy have encouraged pursuits for better therapeutic approaches. This work describes the development and characterization of a PEGylated liposomal nanocarrier encapsulated with trans-resveratrol (Res), a plant stilbenoid, and doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox), a standard chemotherapeutic agent for treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma. The two drugs were loaded in liposomes prepared from egg phosphatidylcholine and DSPE-PEG with maximum encapsulation efficiencies of about 80% for each drug achieved at Res to Dox ratio of 2:1. The liposomal suspension was found to be stable with a zeta potential of -30.53 mV and size of approximately 250 nm. Thermal properties and release kinetics of the dual drug loaded liposomes were determined. The nanoformulation was evaluated for its in vitro anticancer efficacy on an oral squamous cell carcinoma cell line (NT8e). The cell uptake mechanism of the liposomal formulation was determined using pharmacological inhibitors for different endocytosis pathways. The combination effect of the two drugs was evaluated in free form and was found to have synergistic effects. The formulation was found to have a higher IC50 value than that of free doxorubicin hydrochloride but was found to have a superior effect on the signaling proteins involved in apoptosis and cell cycle.

Abstract
In addition to interacting with functional proteins such as receptors, ion channels, and enzymes, a variety of drugs mechanistically act on membrane lipids to change the physicochemical properties of biomembranes as reported for anesthetic, adrenergic, cholinergic, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antitumor, antiplatelet, antimicrobial, and antioxidant drugs. As well as these membrane-acting drugs, bioactive plant components, phytochemicals, with amphiphilic or hydrophobic structures, are presumed to interact with biological membranes and biomimetic membranes prepared with phospholipids and cholesterol, resulting in the modification of membrane fluidity, microviscosity, order, elasticity, and permeability with the potencies being consistent with their pharmacological effects. A novel mechanistic point of view of phytochemicals would lead to a better understanding of their bioactivities, an insight into their medicinal benefits, and a strategic implication for discovering drug leads from plants. This article reviews the membrane interactions of different classes of phytochemicals by highlighting their induced changes in membrane property. The phytochemicals to be reviewed include membrane-interactive flavonoids, terpenoids, stilbenoids, capsaicinoids, phloroglucinols, naphthodianthrones, organosulfur compounds, alkaloids, anthraquinonoids, ginsenosides, pentacyclic triterpene acids, and curcuminoids. The membrane interaction’s applicability to the discovery of phytochemical drug leads is also discussed while referring to previous screening and isolating studies.

Abstract
Despite the known anticancer potential of resveratrol, its clinical applications are often hindered by physicochemical limitations such as poor solubility and stability. The encapsulation of resveratrol in formulations such as polymeric nanoparticles and liposomes has shown limited success. This study aimed to develop and optimize a novel drug carrier by co-encapsulating pristine resveratrol alongside cyclodextrin-resveratrol inclusion complexes in the lipophilic and hydrophilic compartments of liposomes, respectively by using a novel dual carrier approach. The particle size, polydispersity index and zeta potential of the final formulation were 131±1.30nm, 0.089±0.005 and -2.64±0.51mV, respectively. Compared to free resveratrol and conventional liposomal formulations with drug release profile of 40-60%, our novel nanoformulations showed complete (100%) drug release in 24h. The formulation was stable for 14days at 4°C. We also studied the in vitro cytotoxicity of resveratrol encapsulated liposomes in HT-29 colon cancer cell lines. The cytotoxicity profile of our liposomes was observed to be dose dependent and enhanced in comparison to free resveratrol (in DMSO). Our study demonstrates that co-encapsulation of pristine resveratrol along with its cyclodextrin complex in liposomal formulations is a plausible option for the enhanced delivery of the hydrophobic chemotherapeutic agent.

Abstract
Resveratrol has been widely studied because of its pleiotropic effects in cancer therapy, neuroprotection, and cardioprotection. It is believed that the interaction of resveratrol with biological membranes may play a key role in its therapeutic activity. The capacity of resveratrol to partition into lipid bilayers, its possible location within the membrane, and the influence of this compound on the membrane fluidity were investigated using membrane mimetic systems composed of egg l-α-phosphatidylcholine (EPC), cholesterol (CHOL), and sphingomyelin (SM). The results showed that resveratrol has greater affinity for the EPC bilayers than for EPC:CHOL [4:1] and EPC:CHOL:SM [1:1:1] membrane models. The increased difficulty in penetrating tight packed membranes is also demonstrated by fluorescence quenching of probes and by fluorescence anisotropy measurements. Resveratrol may be involved in the regulation of cell membrane fluidity, thereby contributing for cell homeostasis.

Abstract
Molecules of the plant world are proving their effectiveness in countering, slowing down, and regressing many diseases. The resveratrol for its intrinsic properties related to its stilbene structure has been proven to be a universal panacea, especially for a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases. This paper evaluates (in vivo and in vitro) the various molecular targets of this peculiar polyphenol and its ability to effectively counter several neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Huntington's diseases and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. What emerges is that, in the deep heterogeneity of the pathologies evaluated, resveratrol through a convergence on the protein targets is able to give therapeutic responses in neuronal cells deeply diversified not only in morphological structure but especially in their function performed in the anatomical district to which they belong.

A-type ECG and EGCG dimers disturb the structure of 3T3-L1 cell membrane and strongly inhibit its differentiation by targeting peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ with miR-27 involved mechanism. J Nutr Biochem 2015; 26:1124-35.

Abstract
The effects of four proanthocyanidin dimers including epicatechin-(4β→8, 2β→O→7)-epicatechin (A-type EC dimer), epicatechin-(4β→8)-epicatechin (B-type EC dimer), epicatechin-3-gallate-(4β→8, 2β→O→7)-epicatechin-3-gallate (A-type ECG dimer) and epigallocatechin-3-gallate-(4β→8, 2β→O→7)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (A-type EGCG dimer) on 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cell differentiation and the underlying mechanisms were explored and compared. The results showed that A-type ECG dimer and A-type EGCG dimer significantly reduced the intracellular lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cells by targeting miR-27a and miR-27b as well as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in the early stage of differentiation, while A-type EC dimer and B-type EC dimer showed little effect. In addition, our results revealed that the inhibitory effects of proanthocyanidin dimers on 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation were highly structure-dependent and the effects were associated with the dimer-membrane interactions. The presence of galloyl moieties and A-type linkage within the structure of proanthocyanidins might be crucial for their inhibitory effect on adipogenesis. The strong disturbing effects of A-type ECG and A type EGCG dimers on the fluidity, hydrophobicity and permeability of membrane of 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cell were at least, in part, responsible for their distinct inhibitory effects on adipocyte hyperplasia.

Abstract
An altered ion homeostasis due to impaired membrane transporters is known to be involved in the pathophysiology of many chronic diseases. Resveratrol, a phytoalexin, has been reported to elicit pleiotropic health-promoting effects, however, the mechanism(s) which underlie these effects remain speculative. The present study investigate the modulatory role of resveratrol on erythrocyte membrane Ca(2+)ATPase (PMCA pump), Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase (NKA pump), and Na(+)/H(+) exchanger (NHE) in control and experimental-oxidative stress conditions. Results suggest that resveratrol is a potent modulator of membrane transporters evidenced by stimulation of PMCA and NKA pumps and down-regulation of NHE. The observed effects on membrane transporters correlated with susceptibility of erythrocyte membrane to oxidative damage. The findings provide an insight into the role of membrane transporters and their involvement in the health beneficial effects of resveratrol.

Novel resveratrol and 5-fluorouracil coencapsulated in PEGylated nanoliposomes improve chemotherapeutic efficacy of combination against head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2014; 2014:424239.

Abstract
Increasing consumption of tobacco and alcohol has led to a steady increase in the incidence of head and neck cancers in Asia. The drawbacks associated with the existing chemotherapeutic and surgical interventions have necessitated the development of a safer alternative for therapy of head and neck cancers. In this study we have explored the synergistic therapeutic potential of a phytochemical and chemotherapeutic agent using PEGylated liposomes as a delivery vehicle. Resveratrol and 5-fluorouracil were successfully coencapsulated in a single PEGylated nanoliposome. The thermal analysis and the nuclear magnetic resonance results revealed that resveratrol localized near the glycerol backbone of the liposomal membrane while 5-fluorouracil localized closer to the phosphate moiety, which influenced the release kinetics of both drugs. The nanoformulation was tested in vitro on a head and neck cancer cell line NT8e and was found to exhibit a GI50 similar to that of free 5-fluorouracil. Further, gene expression studies showed that the combination of resveratrol and 5-fluorouracil exhibited different effects on different genes that may influence the net antagonistic effect. The coencapsulation of resveratrol and 5-fluorouracil in a liposomal nanocarrier improved the cytotoxicity in comparison with the free drug combination when tested in vitro.
