Resveratrol protects mouse embryonic stem cells from ionizing radiation by accelerating recovery from DNA strand breakage
2 Nov 2011
Abstract excerpt
Resveratrol has elicited many provocative anticancer effects in laboratory animals and cultured cells, including reduced levels of oxidative DNA damage, inhibition of tumor initiation and progression and induction of apoptosis in tumor cells. Use of resveratrol as a cancer-preventive agent in humans will require that its anticancer effects not be accompanied by damage to normal tissue stem or progenitor cells. In...
