Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of resveratrol (RES) on 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced rat colon carcinogenesis. The numbers of colon tumors and the formation of aberrant crypt foci (ACF), a premalignant lesion in rats were significantly reduced on resveratrol (8 mg/kg body weight) supplementation. Moreover, resveratrol supplementation for the entire treatment period showed significantly better chemopreventive activity against DMH-induced rat colon carcinogenesis as compared to resveratrol supplementation during the initiation and post-initiation stages of carcinogenesis.
