Features:
Antioxidant found in blueberries, cranberries and grapes.
Pterostilbene (trans-3,5-dimethoxy-40-hydroxystilbene) is a naturally occurring stilbene, found mainly in blueberries and grapes. It is a dimethylated derivative of resveratrol with comparable antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic properties [26].
-more bioavailable than resveratrol
-Antioxidant activity: Reduces reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation
-Anti-inflammatory: Downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines- IL-1β, TNF-α, NF-κB
-Amyloid pathology:inhibits Aβ aggregation and promotes clearance- Aβ, APP, BACE1
-Reduces hyperphosphorylation of tau protein
-Inhibits histone deacetylases (HDACs)
-Increases acetylcholine by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase
-Sirtuin activation

Rank Pathway / Axis Cancer Cells Normal Cells Label Primary Interpretation Notes
1 SIRT1 / AMPK metabolic sensing ↑ AMPK; context-dependent SIRT1 modulation ↑ SIRT1 / ↑ AMPK Driver Energy-stress signaling Pterostilbene strongly engages energy-sensing pathways due to high bioavailability
2 PI3K → AKT → mTOR axis ↓ AKT / ↓ mTOR ↔ adaptive suppression Driver Growth and survival inhibition AKT/mTOR suppression explains cytostatic and pro-apoptotic effects in cancer cells
3 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) ↑ ROS (mild, dose-dependent) ↓ ROS / buffered Conditional Driver Biphasic redox modulation More balanced redox profile than resveratrol; weaker pro-oxidant behavior
4 Mitochondrial integrity / intrinsic apoptosis ↓ ΔΨm; ↑ caspase activation ↔ preserved Secondary Execution of apoptosis Mitochondrial apoptosis follows metabolic and redox stress
5 NF-κB signaling ↓ NF-κB activation ↓ inflammatory NF-κB tone Secondary Suppression of inflammatory survival programs NF-κB inhibition contributes to anti-invasive and chemosensitizing effects
6 Cell cycle regulation ↑ G1 or G2/M arrest ↔ spared Phenotypic Cytostatic growth control Cell-cycle arrest reflects upstream metabolic and signaling effects
7 NRF2 antioxidant response ↑ NRF2 (adaptive) ↑ NRF2 (protective) Adaptive Redox compensation NRF2 activation contributes to stress buffering rather than primary cytotoxicity

Type:
Normal cells grow and divide in a regulated manner through the cell cycle, which consists of phases (G1, S, G2, and M).
Cancer cells often bypass these regulatory mechanisms, leading to uncontrolled proliferation. This can result from mutations in genes that control the cell cycle, such as oncogenes (which promote cell division) and tumor suppressor genes (which inhibit cell division).
