A paradoxical relationship between Resveratrol and copper (II) with respect to degradation of DNA and RNA [version 2; referees: 2 approved]

Resveratrol (R), a plant polyphenol, is known to reduce Cu (II) to Cu (I) generating reactive oxygen species that can cleave plasmid DNA. Here we report a surprising observation of a paradoxical relationship between R and Cu whereby plasmid DNA cleaving / degrading activity of R-Cu increased progres...
