    Abstract

    Resveratrol inhibits PAH bioactivation through reduced expression of the CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 genes in human bronchial epithelial cells. Ad libitum access to a diet containing resveratrol showed no effect on benzo[a]pyrene-induced lung tumorigenesis in A/J mice. Also, resveratrol did not change CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 gene expression or benzo[a]pyrene protein adduct levels in the lung tissue. The lack of chemopreventive activity may have been caused by insufficient concentrations or nonreactive forms of resveratrol in the lungs.
