Autophagy and Resveratrol Apoptosis in RCC
2026-08-08
The reference study shows that resveratrol induces ROS-associated mitochondrial injury and caspase-3-dependent apoptosis in renal cell carcinoma 786-O cells, while JNK-linked autophagy functions as a protective response. Its inhibitor and gene-silencing experiments suggest that combining resveratrol with autophagy suppression may intensify tumor-cell killing, although the evidence remains limited to an in vitro model.
