1 Resveratrol and Alcohol By Paul Mascali

2 Need

3 Resveratrol Resveratrol is a chemical that is found in plants Resveratrol activates the protein kinase and sirituin 1 which redistributes fat in the liver

4 Alcohol A drug found through the fermentation of fruits Alcohol diactivates he genes protein kinase and sirtuin 1 the same genes that resveratrol activates

5 Alcohol related diseases Diseases that are effected through fat accumulation in the liver are cirrhosis and fibrosis of the liver Cirrhosis of the liver Healthy liver Cirrhosis of the liver fibrosis of the liver

6 Drosophila related to Resveratrol and Alcohol Drosophila when exposed to resveratrol have found a longer lifespan Drosophila when exposed to alcohol have found a shorter lifespan and have demonstrated different behavioral changes

7 C. Elegans related to Resveratrol and Alcohol C. Elegans when exposed to Resveratrol have showed a longer lifespan C. Elegans that are exposed to Alcohol have demonstrated slower reaction times

8 Resveratrol on lifespan in Drosophila and C. Elegans Bass, 2007 Resveratrol was inserted in the drosophila food at 1, 3.2, 10, 32, 100, 200, and 1000 mM Resveratrol was dissolved at a 1:1000 to molten agar NGM ratio during preparation of plates for C. Elegans

9 Resveratrol Life Span results Results of resveratrol on C. Elegans Drosophila showed no increase to the life span C. Elegans demonstrated a slightly longer lifespan when exposed to resveratrol

10 Do-ability Exposure to Resveratrol Exposure to Alcohol
