Promising anti- cervical carcinoma and inflammatory agent, Resveratrol targets poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) induced premature ovarian failure with a potent enzymatic modulatory activity
Radioprotective effects of Resveratrol is well known in normal cells exposed to the damaging effects of ionizing radiation however, its potential radioprotective effect on ovarian follicle formation and development is still uncertain. Astonishingly, it has been reported that PARP contributed to the pathogenesis of immune-mediated ovarian injury. In this paper, Resveratrol was tested for its inflammatory, anti-cervical carcinoma activity, and checked its targets poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) induced premature ovarian failure with a potent enzymatic modulatory activity. Through high-throughput virtual screening method, Resveratrol was screened to find its target. That the compound strongly inhibited cervical carcinoma HT-3 cell. The cell proliferation was evaluated by an CCK-8 assay, and the cell apoptosis was assessed by a flow cytometry. Rat model of premature ovarian failure was used to introduce resveratrol preparation and rtPCR was done to measure expression of apoptosis related markers. We report resveratrol as a potential target for PARP-1 and its modulator from a high-throughput virtual screening method. Resveratrol was measured its anti-cervical carcinoma activity by using an CCK-8 assay, which suggested that the compound strongly inhibited HT-3 cell proliferation, the IC
