Cellular and Molecular Targets of Resveratrol on Lymphoma and Leukemia Cells

Raffaele Frazzi et al. Molecules. .

Abstract

Resveratrol (RSV) is a well known chemopreventive molecule featuring anti-cancer properties. Our paper describes the main molecular targets of RSV linked to its antiproliferative activity on lymphoma and leukemia experimental models. It discusses further the most recent and most promising among these molecular targets for a translational application.

Keywords: leukemia; lymphoma; molecular target; resveratrol.
