RES, Resveratrol: Click to Expand ⟱
Features: polyphenol
Found in red grapes and products made with grapes.
Resveratrol is a polyphenol compound found in various plant species, including grapes, berries, and peanuts.
• Anti-inflammatory effects, Antioxidant effects:
- Antiplatelet aggregation for stroke prevention
- BioAvialability use piperine
- some sources may use Japanese knotweed roots (Reynoutria Japonica - root) as source which might contain Emodin (laxative)
-known as Nrf2 activator, both in cancer and normal cells. Which raises controversity of use in ROS↑ therapies. Interestingly there are reports of NRF2↑ and ROS↑ in cancer cells. This raises the question of if it is a chemosensitizer. However other reports indicate NRF2 droping with Res, indicating it maybe a chemosenstizer.
- RES is also considered to be them most effective natural SIRT1↑ -activating compound (STACs).

However, in the presence of certain metals, such as copper or iron, resveratrol can undergo a process called Fenton reaction, which can lead to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The pro-oxidant effects of resveratrol are often observed at high concentrations, typically above 50-100 μM, and in the presence of certain metals or other pro-oxidant agents. In contrast, the antioxidant effects of resveratrol are typically observed at lower concentrations, typically below 10-20 μM.

Clinical trials have used doses ranging from 150 mg to 5 grams per day. Lower doses (< 1 g/day) are often well-tolerated, but higher doses might be necessary for therapeutic effects and can be associated with side effects.

NOTCH2, Notch homolog 2 (Drosophila): Click to Expand ⟱
Source: CGL-Driver Genes
Type: TSG
NOTCH2 is a member of the Notch signaling pathway, which plays a crucial role in cell differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis.
NOTCH2 can act as either a tumor suppressor or an oncogene.
Notch2 expression varies widely across cancer types. In some tumors, such as certain hematological malignancies and solid tumors like breast or lung cancer, Notch2 may be overexpressed or exhibit enhanced signaling activity.

– In contrast, other studies have observed reduced expression of Notch2 in tumors like hepatocellular carcinoma or pancreatic cancer, suggesting that its role can differ based on tissue context and tumor subtype.
