Targets |
ε-Viniferin; IC50 = 0.45 μM against COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2) [1];
Formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1, IC50=8.7 μM)[5]; COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2)[1]; SIRT3-mediated FOXO3 pathway[6] |
---|---|
ln Vitro |
ε-Viniferin demonstrated potent inhibitory activity against COX-2 with an IC50 value of 0.45 μM, showing selectivity over COX-1 (IC50 > 100 μM). The compound also exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects by reducing PGE2 production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages (IC50 = 1.2 μM). [1]
In another study, ε-Viniferin showed strong antioxidant activity with an EC50 of 12.5 μM in the DPPH radical scavenging assay. It also displayed protective effects against oxidative stress-induced cell damage in human keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) at concentrations ranging from 5-20 μM. [2] ε-Viniferin (10-50 μM) induced apoptosis in osteosarcoma (U2OS) and non-small cell lung cancer (A549) cells through caspase-3/7 activation and DNA fragmentation[3]. In lung cancer cells, it inhibited TGF-β1-induced EMT by downregulating vimentin (40 μM reduced migration by 62% and invasion by 75%)[4]. The compound showed neuroprotective effects in SH-SY5Y cells (5-20 μM) by activating SIRT3-mediated FOXO3 deacetylation, reducing ROS by 45%[6]. In neutrophils, it specifically bound FPR1 (IC50=8.7 μM), inhibiting chemotaxis and reducing IL-8 secretion by 68% at 20 μM[5]. |
ln Vivo |
ε-Viniferin significantly reduced paw edema in carrageenan-induced acute inflammation in rats, indicating its anti-inflammatory activity in vivo. The effect was comparable to that of indomethacin, a standard anti-inflammatory drug. [2]
Oral administration (50 mg/kg/day) for 12 weeks reduced body weight gain by 28% in diet-induced obese mice, with 22% improvement in glucose tolerance[7]. |
Cell Assay |
Apoptosis/Necrosis assay: U2OS/A549 cells treated with 0-50 μM ε-Viniferin for 24-48h. Apoptosis measured by Annexin V/PI staining; necrosis by LDH release [3]
EMT/Migration assay: A549 cells pretreated with TGF-β1 (5 ng/ml) ± ε-viniferin (1-20 μM). Vimentin expression analyzed by Western blot; migration/invasion assessed via Transwell with Matrigel [4] Neutrophil activation: Human neutrophils isolated from blood, stimulated with fMLP (1 μM) ± ε-viniferin (0.1-10 μM). Superoxide measured by cytochrome c reduction; elastase release by chromogenic substrate hydrolysis [5] Neuronal protection: SH-SY5Y cells pretreated with ε-viniferin (10-50 μM) before rotenone (100 nM). Cell viability by MTT; SIRT3 activity and FOXO3 acetylation by immunoprecipitation/Western blot [6] |
Animal Protocol |
In the carrageenan-induced paw edema model, ε-Viniferin was administered orally to rats at doses of 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg. The control group received indomethacin at 10 mg/kg, and another group received only the vehicle (DMSO). Paw edema was measured at different time points after carrageenan injection. [2]
High-fat diet mice received daily oral ε-Viniferin (50 mg/kg) for 12 weeks. Weekly monitoring included body weight and food intake, with glucose tolerance tests at week 10[7]. Obesity model: C57BL/6 mice fed high-fat diet ± ε-Viniferin (50 mg/kg in 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose) by daily oral gavage for 8 weeks. Body weight/food intake monitored weekly [7] Parkinson’s model: C57BL/6 mice injected with rotenone (2.5 mg/kg, SC) daily ± co-administration of ε-viniferin (20 mg/kg in saline, IP) for 4 weeks. Motor function tested by rotarod; brains harvested for histology [6] |

Additional Infomation |
(-)-trans-epsilon-viniferin is a stilbenoid that is the (-)-trans-stereoisomer of epsilon-viniferin, obtained by cyclodimerisation of trans-resveratrol. It has a role as a metabolite. It is a member of 1-benzofurans, a polyphenol and a stilbenoid. It is functionally related to a trans-resveratrol. It is an enantiomer of a (+)-trans-epsilon-viniferin.
Epsilon-viniferin has been reported in Vitis riparia, Gnetum montanum, and other organisms with data available. ε-Viniferin is a natural stilbenoid compound found in grapes and other plants. The study focused on its anti-inflammatory activity, particularly its ability to inhibit NO production in macrophage cells. No information on its specific target, mechanism of action, or in vivo efficacy was provided. [1] ε-Viniferin is a resveratrol dimer found in grapevines and other plants. The studies highlight its potential as both an anti-inflammatory agent (through COX-2 inhibition) and an antioxidant compound. Its dual activity suggests potential applications in inflammatory diseases and oxidative stress-related conditions. [1][2] This resveratrol dimer exhibits multi-target effects including anti-cancer (via EMT inhibition and apoptosis induction), anti-inflammatory (FPR1 targeting), neuroprotective (SIRT3 activation), and anti-obesity activities. Its natural origin from grapevines suggests good safety profile[3-7]. ε-Viniferin is a resveratrol dimer with multimodal bioactivities: Targets FPR1 to suppress neutrophil-driven inflammation; inhibits TGF-β/vimentin to block cancer metastasis; activates SIRT3-FOXO3 axis for neuroprotection [3-7] Mechanistic insights: Downregulates vimentin to reverse EMT in lung cancer; enhances mitochondrial SOD2 via SIRT3-FOXO3 deacetylation in neurodegeneration [4,6] Potential indications: Adjuvant for NSCLC metastasis prevention; neuroprotective agent in Parkinson’s; anti-obesity therapy.
