Resveratrol is a phytoalexin that has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation of several cancer cell lines. In some cases this inhibition was specific for the transformed cells when compared with normal cells of the same tissue. To test whether this was the case in rat hepatocytes, we exposed primary rat hepatocytes in culture and transformed rat hepatic cells to this compound and studied its effect on cell proliferation, measuring deoxy-bromouridine incorporation and total DNA. We also studied the effect of resveratrol on the cell cycle of normal and transformed rat hepatocytes. We observed that resveratrol inhibited proliferation in a dose-dependent manner in both cases, with no differential action in the transformed cells compared to the normal ones. This compound arrested the cell cycle in G0/G1 in primary hepatocytes, while it arrested the cell cycle in G2/M in transformed cells. Transformed hepatocytes showed accumulation of cells in the S phase of the cell cycle.

D002461 Cell Line, Transformed Eukaryotic cell line obtained in a quiescent or stationary phase which undergoes conversion to a state of unregulated growth in culture, resembling an in vitro tumor. It occurs spontaneously or through interaction with viruses, oncogenes, radiation, or drugs/chemicals. Transformed Cell Line,Cell Lines, Transformed,Transformed Cell Lines
D002478 Cells, Cultured Cells propagated in vitro in special media conducive to their growth. Cultured cells are used to study developmental, morphologic, metabolic, physiologic, and genetic processes, among others. Cultured Cells,Cell, Cultured,Cultured Cell
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
