Enhancement of oral bioavailability and anti-Parkinsonian efficacy of resveratrol through a nanocrystal formulation

Resveratrol (RES), a non-flavonoid polyphenol extracted from a wide variety of plants, exhibits neuroprotective activities against Parkinson's disease (PD). However, undesirable water solubility of RES reduces its oral bioavailability and demonstrates low efficacy in blood and brain, thus limiting its application. In present study, a nanocrystal formulation of RES (RES-NCs) was developed to enhance its oral bioavailability and delivery into...
