Overproduction of hepatic apolipoprotein B (apoB)-100 containing very low-density lipoprotein particles and intestinal apoB-48 containing chylomicrons contributes to hypertriglyceridemia seen in conditions such as obesity and insulin resistance. Some, but not all, preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that the

Resveratrol exhibits a variety of biological and pharmacological activities despite its extensive metabolism to sulfates and glucuronides in the intestine and liver. The metabolism of resveratrol is cell specific and strongly correlates with enzyme expression levels. However, a high rate

It was recently reported that the plant polyphenol resveratrol, found, e.g., in grape berry skins, extended lifespan in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster and the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans. This lifespan extension was dependent on an NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase, Sir2

In the search for novel preventive and therapeutic modalities in the management of metabolic diseases and obesity, resveratrol has attracted great attention over the past decades. Preclinical trials suggest that resveratrol mimics the metabolic effects of calorie restriction (CR) via

The number of people suffering from metabolic disorders is dramatically increasing worldwide. The need for new therapeutic strategies to combat this growing epidemic of metabolic diseases is therefore also increasing. In 2003, resveratrol was discovered to be a small molecule
