A
recent study by a University of Missouri researcher shows that
resveratrol, a compound found in grape skins and red wine, can make
certain tumor cells more susceptible to radiation treatment. This
research, which studied melanoma cells, follows a previous MU study that
found similar results in the treatment of prostate cancer. The next
step is for researchers to develop a successful method to deliver the
compound to tumor sites and potentially treat many types of cancers.
