Abstract:
Resveratrol is a polyphenolic compounds in many plants.It has many effects inchuding antioxidation,anti-inflammation,inhibiting apoptosis,and scavenging free radicals.Resveratrol preconditioning has neuroprotective effect in ischemia-reperfusion in rats by activating silent information regulator 2 homolog 1.This effect is similar to brain ischemic preconditioning.In addition,resveratrol can also attenuate the brain infraction volume of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in mice and improve neurological function.This article reviews the neuroprotective effect of resveratrol and its mechanisms in cerebral ischemia.
