Resveratrol-sulfates provide an intracellular reservoir for generation of parent resveratrol, which induces autophagy in cancer cells
9 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
Resveratrol has many proposed health benefits, including the prevention of cancers, but its low bioavailability is considered a limiting factor in translating these effects to humans. Based on in vivo and clinical studies we have shown that resveratrol is indeed rapidly metabolized by phase II enzymes, and that resveratrol sulfates are deconjugated by steroid sulfatases to afford free resveratrol in vitro and in...
