Resveratrol and related stilbenes: their anti-aging and anti-angiogenic properties

Konstantinos M Kasiotis et al. Food Chem Toxicol. 2013 Nov.

Abstract

Dietary stilbenes comprise a class of natural compounds that display significant biological activities of medicinal interest. Among them, their antioxidant, anti-aging and anti-angiogenesic properties are well established and subjects of numerous research endeavors. This mini-review aspires to account and present the literature reports published on research concerning various natural and synthetic stilbenes, such as trans-resveratrol. Special focus was given to most recent research findings, while the mechanisms underlying their anti-aging and anti-angiogenic effects as well as the respective signaling pathways involved were also presented and discussed.

Keywords: Aging; Angiogenesis; Lifespan; Polyphenol; Resveratrol; Stilbenes.
