RESUMEN
Grapevines (Vitis spp.) produce several valuable polyphenol-type secondary metabolites including various stilbenoids. Although the potential application of stilbenes may offer alternative solutions to food safety or health challenges, only little information is available on their antibacterial activity against foodborne pathogens. In this work, high-performance liquid chromatography was used to analyze the stilbenoid profile of various wild Vitis species, including V. amurensis, V. davidii, V. pentagona, and V. romanetii, selected from the gene bank for grapes at the University of Pécs, Hungary. We found that the stilbene profile of cane extracts is strongly genotype-dependent, showing the predominant presence of ε-viniferin with a wide concentration range ≈ 320-3870 µg/g dry weight. A novel yet simple and efficient extraction procedure was developed and applied for the first time on grape canes, resulting in ε-viniferin-rich crude extracts that were tested against Listeria monocytogenes, an important foodborne pathogen. After 24 h exposure, V. pentagona and V. amurensis crude extracts completely eliminated the bacteria at a minimum bactericidal concentration of 42.3 µg/mL and 39.2 µg/mL of ε-viniferin, respectively. On the other hand, V. romanetii extract with 7.8 µg/mL of ε-viniferin resulted in 4 log reduction in the viable bacterial cells, while V. davidii extract with 1.4 µg/mL of ε-viniferin did not show significant antibacterial activity. These findings indicate that the ε-viniferin content was directly responsible for the antibacterial effect of cane extract. However, pure ε-viniferin (purity > 95%) required a higher concentration (188 µg/mL) to eradicate the bacteria under the same conditions, suggesting the presence of other antibacterial compounds in the cane extracts. Investigating the onset time of the bactericidal action was conducted through a kinetic experiment, and results showed that the reduction in living bacterial number started after 2 h; however, the bactericidal action demanded 24 h of exposure. Our results revealed that the canes of V. pentagona and V. amurensis species are a crucial bio-source of an important stilbene with antimicrobial activity and health benefits.

Trans-ε-viniferin, a resveratrol dimer found mainly in grapevine wood, has shown protective capacities against hepatic steatosis in vivo. Nevertheless, this compound is very poorly bioavailable. Thus, the aim of the present study is to determine the potential anti-steatotic properties of 1 and 10 µM of trans-ε-viniferin and its four glucuronide metabolites in AML-12 cells treated with palmitic acid as an in vitro model of hepatic steatosis. The effect of the molecules in cell viability and triglyceride accumulation, and the underlying mechanisms of action by Real-Time PCR and Western Blot were analysed, as well as the quantification of trans-ε-viniferin and the identified bioactive metabolite inside cells and their incubation media. Interestingly, we were able to determine the triglyceride-lowering property of one of the glucuronides (trans-ε-viniferin-2-glucuronide), which acts on de novo lipogenesis, fatty acid uptake and triglyceride assembly. The glucuronides of trans-ε-viniferin would therefore be partly responsible for the in vivo observed anti-steatotic properties of the parent compound.
RESUMEN
Applying plant protection products (PPP) on grapevine pruning wounds is a viticultural practice used to mitigate the spread of grapevine tuck disease, which is posing serious economic losses in the vine-wine industry. However, the impact of PPP on woody tissues remains unclear. Our study, conducted in two European vineyards, investigated the effects of Cuprocol, Tessior, Esquive, and Bentogran on stilbenes, in canes of Cabernet sauvignon and Syrah, at three phenological stages. Main stilbenes, quantified by HPLC-UV-DAD (1260 Agilent Infinity System) and identified by HPLC-ESI/MS (Thermo Scientific LCQ FLEET system), included E-resveratrol, E-ε-viniferin, E-piceatannol, and E-polydatin. Canes exhibited varying proportions of individual stilbenes, reflecting differences based on climatic conditions and phenological phases, rather than on the application of specific PPP. Vines grown in cool-climate conditions exhibited higher levels of E-resveratrol, whereas vines from the Mediterranean climate area exhibited higher levels of E-ε-viniferin. We also observed divergences in the accumulation trend of wood stilbenes throughout the season in canes collected in the two different growing areas.

Grapevine roots, as a side-stream of a vineyard, are a sustainable resource for the recovery of oligomeric stilbenoids, such as the bioactive r-viniferin. The aim of this study is to evaluate an in silico-supported method, based on the Conductor-like Screening Model for Real Solvents (COSMO-RS), for selection of environmentally friendly natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) with regard to the extraction of grapevine roots. The most suitable NADES system for ultrasonic-assisted extraction of r-viniferin was choline chloride/1,2-propanediol. The optimal extraction parameters for r-viniferin were determined using single-factor experiments as follows: choline chloride/1,2-propanediol 1/2 mol/mol, 10 wt% H2O, biomass/NADES ratio 1/10 g/g, and 10 min extraction time. Under optimized conditions, the extraction yield of r-viniferin from grapevine roots reached 76% of the total r-viniferin content. Regarding stability, stilbenoids in choline chloride/1,2-propanediol remained stable during 128 days of storage at ambient temperature. However, fructose/lactic acid-based NADES were observed to degrade stilbenoids; therefore, the removal of the NADES will be of interest, with a suitable method implemented using Amberlite® XAD-16N resin. As green solvents, the NADES have been used as effective and environmentally friendly extractants of stilbenoid-containing extracts from grapevine roots for potential applications in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry or as nutraceuticals in the food industry.
RESUMEN
The control of oxidative stress with natural active substances could limit the development of numerous pathologies. Our objective was to study the antiradical effects of resveratrol (RSV), ε-viniferin (VNF), and vitisin B (VB) alone or in combination, and those of a standardized stilbene-enriched vine extract (SSVE). In the DPPH-, FRAP-, and NO-scavenging assays, RSV presented the highest activity with an IC50 of 81.92 ± 9.17, 13.36 ± 0.91, and 200.68 ± 15.40 µM, respectively. All binary combinations resulted in additive interactions in the DPPH- and NO-scavenging assays. In the FRAP assay, a synergic interaction for RSV + VNF, an additive for VNF + VB, and an antagonistic for RSV + VB were observed. The ternary combination of RSV + VNF + VB elicited an additive interaction in the DPPH assay and a synergic interaction in the FRAP- and NO-scavenging assays. There was no significant difference between the antioxidant activity of the SSVE and that of the combination of RSV + VNF. In conclusion, RSV presented the highest effects, followed by VNF and VB. The interactions revealed additive or synergistic effects, depending on the combination of the stilbenes and assay.

TMEM16A regulator is an important tool to study the physiological functions and pathogenesis related to TMEM16A. In the present study, trans-ε-viniferin (TV) was identified as a TMEM16A inhibitor with inhibitory activity against TMEM16A mediated Cl- currents, which was reversible, without affecting intracytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration and TMEM16A protein expression. TV inhibited intestinal peristalsis and prolonged gastrointestinal transport time. TV could inhibit autonomic and Eact-stimulated intestinal contractility, and was equally effective in ACh- and HA-induced high contractile states. The results indicate that TV significantly inhibits the intestinal smooth muscle contraction, which may be applied in the treatment of TMEM16A-related intestinal dynamic abnormalities.

Resveratrol has well-known anticancer properties; however, its oligomers, including α-viniferin, ε-viniferin, and kobophenol A, have not yet been well investigated. This is the first study examining the anti-epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) effects of α-viniferin and ε-viniferin on A549, NCI-H460, NCI-H520, MCF-7, HOS, and U2OS cells. The results showed that α-viniferin and ε-viniferin significantly inhibited EMT, invasion and migration in TGF-ß1- or IL-1ß-induced non-small cell lung cancer. α-Viniferin and ε-viniferin also reversed TGF-ß1-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), MMP2, vimentin, Zeb1, Snail, p-SMAD2, p-SMAD3, and ABCG2 expression in A549 cells. Furthermore, ε-viniferin was found to significantly inhibit lung metastasis in A549 cell xenograft metastatic mouse models. In view of these findings, α-viniferin and ε-viniferin may play an important role in the prevention of EMT and cancer metastasis in lung cancer.

Stilbenes are secondary metabolites belonging to the polyphenol family. Those compounds are derived from the glycosylation, prenylation, methoxylation, hydroxylation, or also oligomerization of the well-known trans-resveratrol. One of them, trans-epsilon-viniferin (ε-viniferin), is a trans-resveratrol dimer that arouses the interest of researchers in the field of human health. The biosynthesis of this molecule in various plant species, particularly high in the Vitaceae family, explains its presence in some red wines, which represent the main source of ε-viniferin in the human diet. Although bioavailability studies have shown poor absorption and high metabolism of this stilbene, multiple studies demonstrated its biological properties. The ε-viniferin exhibits strong activities against inflammatory and oxidative stress. Moreover, various studies have reported great activity of this compound not only in a wide range of disorders and diseases, such as cancer, obesity, and its associated disorders, but also in vascular diseases and neurodegeneration, for which the pathophysiology is closely related to the state of oxidation and inflammation. This review provides a state of art of the main activities of ε-viniferin demonstrated in vitro and in vivo, highlighting that this resveratrol dimer could be a promising candidate for future functional foods or supplement foods used for the management of many chronic diseases of concern in terms of public health.

Stilbenes are a family of phenolic secondary metabolites that are known for their important roles in plant protection and human health. Numerous studies show that vine shoots, one of the most abundant winery wastes, could be used as a source of bioactive compounds such as stilbenes. The predominant stilbenoids in vine shoots are trans-resveratrol (Rsv) and ε-viniferin (Vf), whose content varies depending on numerous intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The present work investigates the influence of pre-treatment and variety on stilbene concentration in vine shoots. Vine shoots of the Primitivo and Negroamaro varieties were submitted to four different trials before stilbene extraction (untreated, dried at 50 °C for 24 h, dried at 70 °C for 15 min, and dried at 80 °C for 10 min). The results showed that the heat pre-treatments had a slight impact on the total phenol and stilbene content. In contrast, the variety variable had a stronger impact on stilbene concentration, ranging from 2700 to 6400 mg kg-1 DW for untreated vine shoots of 23 Italian varieties. In all vine shoots, the most abundant stilbene compound was Rsv and the highest content was found in vine shoots of the Nero di Troia (5298.1 mg kg-1 DW) and Negroamaro (5249.4 mg kg-1 DW) varieties.
RESUMEN
Trans-ε-viniferin (εVin) is a resveratrol dimer exhibiting promising biological activities for human health. Its bioavailability being low, the development of encapsulation methods would be used to overcome this issue. The aim of this study was to measure the consequences of the encapsulation of εVin in multilamellar liposomes on its pharmacokinetic parameters, metabolism and tissue distribution in rats. After oral administration of εVin (20 mg/kg body weight), either as free or encapsulated forms, plasmas were sequentially collected (from 0 to 4 h) as well as liver, kidneys and adipose tissues (4 h after administration) and analyzed by LC-HRMS. The glucuronide metabolites (εVG) were also produced by hemisynthesis for their quantification in plasma and tissues. The encapsulation process did not significantly modify the pharmacokinetic parameters of εVin itself. However, a significant increase of the T1/2 was noticed for εVG after administration of the encapsulated form as compared to the free form. An accumulation of εVin and εVG in adipose tissues was noticed, and interestingly a significant increase of the latter in the mesenteric one after administration of the encapsulated form was highlighted. Since adipose tissues could represent storage depots, and encapsulation allows for prolonging the exposure time of glucuronide metabolites in the organism, this could be of interest to promote their potential biological activities.

Stilbenes are a major grapevine class of phenolic compounds, known for their biological activities, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, but never studied in combination. We aimed to evaluate the effect of trans-resveratrol + ε-viniferin as an antioxidant mixture and its role in inflammatory development an in vivo model of severe acute liver failure induced with TAA. Trans-resveratrol + trans-ε-viniferin (5 mg/kg each) was administered to Wistar rats. Resveratrol + ε-viniferin significantly decreased TBARS and SOD activity and restored CAT and GST activities in the treated group. This stilbene combination reduced the expression of TNFα, iNOS, and COX-2, and inhibited MMP-9. The combination of resveratrol + ε-viniferin had a hepatoprotective effect, reducing DNA damage, exhibiting a protective role on the antioxidant pathway by altering SOD, CAT, and GST activities; by downregulating TNFα, COX-2, and iNOS; and upregulating IL-10. Our results suggested that adding viniferin to resveratrol may be more effective in hepatoprotection than resveratrol alone, opening a new perspective on using this stilbene combination in functional diets.

The uncontrol respiratory burst in neutrophils can lead to inflammation and tissue damage. This study investigates the effect and the underlying mechanism of ε-viniferin, a lignan from the root of Vitis thunbergii var. thunbergii, inhibits N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-l-phenylalanine (fMLP) induced respiratory burst by antagonizing formyl peptide receptor 1 in human neutrophils. Briefly, ε-viniferin specifically inhibited fMLP (0.1 µM: formyl peptide receptor 1 agonist or 1 µM: formyl peptide receptor 1, 2 agonist)-induced superoxide anion production in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50 = 2.30 ± 0.96 or 9.80 ± 0.21 µM, respectively) without affecting this induced by formyl peptide receptor 2 agonist (WKYMVM). ε-viniferin inhibited fMLP (0.1 µM)-induced phosphorylation of ERK, Akt, Src or intracellular calcium mobilization without affecting these caused by WKYMVM. The synergistic suppression of fMLP (1 µM)-induced superoxide anion production was observed only in the combination of ε-viniferin and formyl peptide receptor 2 antagonist (WRW4) but not in combination of ε-viniferin and formyl peptide receptor 1 antagonist (cyclosporine H). ε-viniferin inhibited FITC-fMLP binding to formyl peptide receptors. Moreover, the synergistic suppression of FITC-fMLP binding was observation only in the combination of ε-viniferin and WRW4 but not in other combinations. ATPγS induced superoxide anion production through formyl peptide receptor 1 in fMLP desensitized neutrophils and this effect was inhibited by ε-viniferin. The concentration-response curve of fMLP-induced superoxide anion was not parallel shifted by ε-viniferin. Furthermore, the inhibiting effect of ε-viniferin on fMLP-induced superoxide anion production was reversible. These results suggest that ε-viniferin is an antagonist of formyl peptide receptor 1 in a reversible and non-competitive manner.

Onion-type multi-lamellar liposomes (MLLs), composed of a mixture of phosphatidylcholine and Tween 80, were analyzed for their ability to encapsulate ε-Viniferin (εVin), a resveratrol dimer. Their encapsulation efficiency (EE) was measured by UV-VIS spectroscopy using three different separation methods-ultracentrifugation, size exclusion chromatography, and a more original and advantageous one, based on adsorption filtration. The adsorption filtration method consists indeed of using syringe filters to retain the molecule of interest, and not the liposomes as usually performed. The process is rapid (less than 10 min), easy to handle, and inexpensive in terms of sample amount (around 2 mg of liposomes) and equipment (one syringe filter is required). Whatever the separation method, a similar EE value was determined, validating the proposed method. A total of 80% ± 4% of εVin was found to be encapsulated leading to a 6.1% payload, roughly twice those reported for resveratrol-loaded liposomes. Finally, the release kinetics of εVin from MLLs was followed for a 77 day period, demonstrating a slow release of the polyphenol.
RESUMEN
The polyphenol trans-ε-viniferin (viniferin) is a dimer of resveratrol, reported to hold antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The aims of our study were to evaluate the neuroprotective potential of viniferin in the nerve growth factor (NGF)-differentiated PC12 cells, a dopaminergic cellular model of Parkinson's disease (PD) and assess its anti-inflammatory properties in a N9 microglia-neuronal PC12 cell co-culture system. The neuronal cells were pre-treated with viniferin, resveratrol or their mixture before the administration of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), recognized to induce parkinsonism in rats. Furthermore, N9 microglia cells, in a co-culture system with neuronal PC12, were pre-treated with viniferin, resveratrol or their mixture to investigate whether these polyphenols could reduce lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation. Our results show that viniferin as well as a mixture of viniferin and resveratrol protects neuronal dopaminergic cells from 6-OHDA-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis. Furthermore, when viniferin, resveratrol or their mixture was used to pre-treat microglia cells in our co-culture system, they reduced neuronal cytotoxicity induced by glial activation. Altogether, our data highlight a novel role for viniferin as a neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory molecule in a dopaminergic cellular model, paving the way for nutraceutical therapeutic avenues in the complementary treatments of PD.
RESUMEN
The application of stilbenes in the food industry is being considered because of their biological activities. Piceatannol, pterostilbene and ε-viniferin have awakened the industry's interest. However, before they can be commercialized, we must first guarantee their safety for consumers. The present work reviews the toxicological studies performed with these stilbenes. A wide variety of studies has demonstrated their cytotoxic effects in both cancer and non-cancerous cell lines. In contrast, although DNA damage was detected by some authors, in vitro genotoxic studies on the effects of piceatannol, pterostilbene, and ε-viniferin remain scarce. None of the three reviewed substances have been evaluated using the in vitro tests required by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) as the first step in genotoxicity testing. We did not find any study on the toxic effects of these stilbenes in vivo. Thus, more studies are needed to confirm their safe use before they can be authorized as additive in the food industry.
RESUMEN
The use of stilbenes has been proposed as an alternative to sulfur dioxide in wine. Provided the feasibility from a technological approach, the cytotoxicity of an extract from grapevine shoots containing a stilbene richness of 99% (ST-99 extract) was assessed in the human cell lines HepG2 and Caco-2. In addition, the effects of the main stilbenes found in ST-99, trans-resveratrol and trans-ε-viniferin were studied, as well as its mixture. Similar cytotoxic effects were obtained in the exposures to trans-ε-viniferin, ST-99 and the mixture; however, trans-resveratrol alone exerted less toxicity. When HepG2 cells were exposed to trans-ε-viniferin, ST-99 and the mixture, the mean effective concentration (EC50) were 28.28 ± 2.15, 31.91 ± 1.55 and 29.47 ± 3.54 µg/mL, respectively. However, in the exposure to trans-resveratrol, the EC50 was higher 50 µg/mL. The morphological study evidenced damage at ultrastructural level in HepG2 cells, highlighting the inhibition of cell proliferation and the induction of apoptosis. The type of interaction produced by trans-ε-viniferin and trans-resveratrol mixtures was assessed by an isobologram analysis using the CalcuSyn software, evidencing an antagonist effect. These data comprise a starting point in the toxicological assessment; further studies are needed in this field to assure the safety of the extract ST-99.

Resveratrol was shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects in experimental models of psoriasis. Several natural oligomers of resveratrol have been extracted from plants. We investigated the antipsoriatic activity of topical administration of resveratrol oligomers and explored the effect of the number of resveratrol subunits on skin absorption to establish the structure-permeation relationship (SPR). Three oligomers, ε-viniferin (dimer), ampelopsin C (trimer) and vitisin A (tetramer), extracted from Vitis thunbergii root were compared to the resveratrol glycoside polydatin. Delivery to porcine skin was assessed in vitro using the Franz cell. Keratinocytes activated with imiquimod (IMQ) were utilized to evaluate cytokine/chemokine inhibition. Topical application of resveratrol and oligomers was characterized in vivo by assessing cutaneous absorption, skin physiology, proinflammatory mediator expression, and histopathology in IMQ-treated mice. Skin deposition decreased as the molecular size and lipophilicity of the permeants increased. Resveratrol exhibited highest absorption, followed by ε-viniferin. The monomers resveratrol and polydatin exhibited higher flux across skin than the larger oligomers. In silico modeling revealed the permeants that strongly interacted with stratum corneum (SC) lipids exhibited lower transport to viable skin and the receptor compartment. In vitro, resveratrol and its derivatives had comparable ability to inhibit IMQ-induced IL-1ß, IL-6, and CXCL8 secretion in activated keratinocytes. In vivo, topically applied ε-viniferin accumulated at higher levels than resveratrol (0.067 versus 0.029 nmol/mg) in psoriasis-like mouse skin with impaired barrier capacity. Topical ε-viniferin alleviated psoriasiform symptoms and reduced IL-23 secretion (by 58% vs. 37%) more effectively than resveratrol. ε-Viniferin has potential as an anti-inflammatory agent to prevent or treat psoriasis.

Grape canes are waste biomass of viticulture containing bioactive polyphenols valuable in cosmetics. Whereas several studies reported the cosmetic activities of E-resveratrol, only few described the potential of E-ε-viniferin, the second major constituent of grape cane extracts (GCE), and none of them investigated GCE as a natural blend of polyphenols for cosmetic applications. In this study, we considered the potential of GCE from polyphenol-rich grape varieties as multifunctional cosmetic ingredients. HPLC analysis was performed to quantify major polyphenols in GCE i.e., catechin, epicatechin, E-resveratrol, E-piceatannol, ampelopsin A, E-ε-viniferin, hopeaphenol, isohopeaphenol, E-miyabenol C and E-vitisin B from selected cultivars. Skin whitening potential through tyrosinase inhibition assay and the activation capacity of cell longevity protein (SIRT1) of GCE were compared to pure E-resveratrol and E-ε-viniferin. Drug-likeness of GCE polyphenols were calculated, allowing the prediction of skin permeability and bioavailability. Finally, the present data enabled the consideration of GCE from polyphenol-rich varieties as multifunctional cosmetic ingredients in accordance with green chemistry practices.

Trans-(-)-ε-viniferin (ε-viniferin) has antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. It also has neuroprotective effects in Huntington's disease by activating the SIRT3/LKB1/AMPK signaling pathway; however, it remains unknown whether ε-viniferin also has a neuroprotective role in Parkinson's disease. A Parkinson's disease cell model was induced by exposing SH-SY5Y cells to 3.0 µM rotenone for 24 hours, and cells were then treated with 1.0 µM ε-viniferin for 24 hours. Treatment with ε-viniferin upregulated SIRT3 expression, which promoted FOXO3 deacetylation and nuclear localization. ε-Viniferin also increased ATP production and decreased reactive oxygen species production. Furthermore, ε-viniferin treatment alleviated rotenone-induced mitochondrial depolarization and reduced cell apoptosis, and restored the expression of mitochondrial homeostasis-related proteins. However, when cells were transfected with SIRT3 or FOXO3 shRNA prior to rotenone and ε-viniferin treatment, these changes were reversed. The results from the present study indicate that ε-viniferin enhances SIRT3-mediated FOXO3 deacetylation, reduces oxidative stress, and maintains mitochondrial homeostasis, thus inhibiting rotenone-induced cell apoptosis. ε-Viniferin may therefore be a promising treatment strategy for Parkinson's disease.
RESUMEN
Red wine compounds have been reported to reduce the rate of atherosclerosis by inducing nitric oxide (NO) production and antioxidant enzyme expression in vascular endothelial cells (VECs). The present study compared the effects of the three red wine compounds resveratrol and its dimers, ε-viniferin and δ-viniferin, on VECs function for the first time. Both 5 µM ε-viniferin and δ-viniferin, but not 5 µM resveratrol, significantly stimulated wound repair of VECs. Increased levels of wound repair induced by 10 and 20 µM ε-viniferin were significantly higher than those stimulated by 10 and 20 µM resveratrol, respectively. These stimulatory effects of the three compounds were suppressed by the NO synthase inhibitor L-NAME. When VECs were exposed to each compound, endothelial NO synthase was activated and the expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and HO-1 was induced. Addition of the SIRT1 and HO-1 inhibitors EX527 and ZnPPiX, respectively, suppressed wound repair stimulated by the three compounds, demonstrating that SIRT1 and HO-1 are involved in these wound repair processes. Furthermore, each compound induced the suppression of H2 O2 -dependent reduction of cell viability as well as the expression of the antioxidant enzyme catalase. These data suggest that not only resveratrol, but also its dimers, ε-viniferin and δ-viniferin, may be effective in preventing atherosclerosis by a similar molecular mechanism with different potency and efficacy.
