Red Wine Extract Prevents Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in ARPE-19 Retinal Cells

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the most commonly occurring ocular diseases worldwide. This degenerative condition affects the retina and leads to the loss of central vision. The current…

Resveratrol inhibits autophagy against myocardial ischemia- reperfusion injury through the DJ-1/MEKK1/JNK pathway.

Resveratrol (RES), a natural polyphenolic compound found in red wine and grape skins, has attracted significant attention due to its cardioprotective properties. DJ-1, a multifunctional protein that participated in transcription…

Red Wine High-Molecular-Weight Polyphenolic Complex Ameliorates High-Fat Diet-Induced Metabolic Dysregulation and Perturbation in Gut Microbiota in Mice.

Red wine polyphenolic complexes have attracted increasing attention as potential modulators of human metabolic disease risk. Our previous study discovered that red wine high-molecular-weight polymeric polyphenolic complexes (HPPCs) could inhibit…

The central administration of vitisin A, extracted from Vitis vinifera, improves cognitive function and related signaling pathways in a scopolamine-induced dementia model.

Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), are characterized by cognitive function loss and progressive memory impairment. Vitis vinifera, which is consumed in the form of fruits and wines in…
