RESUMO
The anti-aggregating effect of cis-resveratrol (cis-3,4,5- trihydroxystilbene) has been evaluated in vitro in different concentrations on platelet-rich plasma from health volunteers. Cis-resveratrol at the concentration of 1 x 10(-5) and 1 x 10(-6) M was able to decrease collagen-induced platelet aggregation by 43.5 +/-11.4% and 26.8 +/- 14.6%, while trans-resveratrol at the same concentration showed a slightly lower activity. In view of the behaviour of these two isomers in biological fluids, the evaluation of resveratrol activity in animals and humans take into account the total amount of the two isomers.

The antiaggregating effect of the phytoalexin resveratrol (3,4,5-trihydroxystilbene), alone or associated with red wine, and polyphenol have been evaluated in vitro at different concentrations on platelet-rich plasma from healthy volunteers. Resveratrol at the concentration of 3.56 micrograms/l was able to lower platelet aggregation by 50.3% +/- 1.83. Red wine containing 1.2 mg/l of natural trans-resveratrol and 3.6 milligrams of polyphenols diluted 1000-fold (final resveratrol concentration: 1.2 micrograms/l) inhibited platelet aggregation by 41.9% +/- 2.11. By adding resveratrol to the wine up to a concentration of 1.2 micrograms/l, inhibition was raised to 78.5% +/- 4.70. These results suggest that the antiaggregating activity of resveratrol is related to its concentration in wine.
