How does Resveratrol work in lung cancer prevention / treatment?
This natural phytoestrogen found in red wine and more than 70 species of plants, has been proven to be protective against lung tumor. Let’s have a closer look at the mechanism of its action on the disease. Results of the Study on human cells One study based on a combination of several experimental approaches was done to find out the biological activity and molecular mechanisms of resveratrol. The best moment is that this research has been conducted on human cells. As a final conclusion of this experiment, it should be noted that resveratrol has shown to be a powerful inhibitor against A549 lung cancer development. Therefore scientists believe that this natural nutrient can be an effective chemo-preventive or chemotherapeutic agent in lung cancer prevention or treatment. Results of the Study on mice cells During another study on animal (rat) cells, this phytoalexin (Resvratrol) demonstrated anti-cancer against lung tumor at intraperitoneal doses of 2.5 and 10 mg/kg per day (but the resu
