Resveratrol has been reported to inhibit or induce DNA damage, depending upon the type of cell and the experimental conditions. Dietary resveratrol is present in the body predominantly as metabolites and limited data is available concerning the activities of these metabolic products. In the present study, physiologically obtainable levels of the resveratrol metabolites resveratrol-3-O-glucuronide, resveratrol-4'-O-glucuronide and resveratrol-3-O-sulfate were evaluated for their ability to protect Jurkat T cells against DNA damage induced by the topoisomerase I inhibitors camptothecin and topotecan. The cells were pretreated for 24 h with 10 µM resveratrol aglycone or each resveratrol metabolite prior to the induction of DNA damage with camptothecin or topotecan. In separate experiments, the cells were co-treated with resveratrol or its metabolites, and a topoisomerase I inhibitor. The detection of histone 2AX phosphorylation and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) were used to determine DNA damage, and apoptosis was measured using an antibody against cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase. It was identified that pretreatment of the cells with resveratrol-3-O-glucuronide and resveratrol-4'-O-glucuronide reduced the mean fluorescence intensity of staining for DNA strand breaks following treatment with camptothecin, while the percentage of cells undergoing apoptosis was unchanged. However, pretreatment of the cells with resveratrol aglycone increased the DNA damage and apoptosis induced by the drugs. These results suggest that the glucuronide metabolites of resveratrol partially protected the cells from DNA damage, but did not influence the induction of cell death by camptothecin and topotecan. These data suggest that resveratrol aglycone treatment may be beneficial for treating types of cancer that have direct contact with resveratrol prior to its metabolism, including gastrointestinal cancers, which are routinely treated with topoisomerase I inhibitors.

Resveratrol-3-O-glucuronide and resveratrol-4′-O-glucuronide reduce DNA strand breakage but not apoptosis in Jurkat T cells treated with camptothecin
