The properties of resveratrol so far identified can be summarized as the following: resveratrol is able to induce the block of cell cycle causing the apoptosis of cancer cells, through the downregulation of tumor-derived nitric oxide synthase; furthermore, it halts the growth of cancer cells and their migration; its antioxidant ability avoids DNA damage responsible for tumor formation; and it regulates nuclear factor NF-κB activation [52]. The gene discussed is NFKB1; the disease is cancer.
