Polydatin, a type of polyphenolic phytoalexin, has many physiological and pharmacological effects including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities. Polydatin is an effective candidate drug for the protection of photo-inflammation. Polydatin exhibits therapeutic potential for vascular dementia, most likely due to its anti-oxidant activity and the direct protection of neurons.

Polydatin is one of the most common encountered stilbenes of nature and a key component of the Chinese herb Polygonum cuspidatum. This study is to investigate the effects of polydatin on learning and memory impairments induced by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion
Mediators of inflammation, 2013, 354087-354087 (2013-02-23)
The present study was carried out to investigate the effects and mechanisms of polydatin (PD) in septic mice. The model of cecal ligation and puncture (CLP-)induced sepsis was employed. Pretreatment of mice with PD (15, 45, and 100 mg/kg) dose-dependently reduced

Mast cells play a key role in the pathogenesis of asthma and are a promising target for therapeutic intervention in asthma. This study investigated the effects of polydatin (PD), a resveratrol glucoside, on mast cell degranulation upon cross-linking of the
Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology, 53(5), 646-656 (2012-08-28)
Polydatin (PD), a resveratrol glucoside, has recently been suggested to have cardioprotective effects against heart diseases, including ischemia-reperfusion injury and pressure-overload induced ventricular remodeling. However, the mechanisms are poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the direct effects of PD
