Resveratrol as a phyto-estrogenic polyphenolic compound extracted from red grapes, has a calorie restriction effect on colorectal cancer cells. It stimulates the metabolic re-programming of cells from the anaerobic glycolysis into oxidative respiration. So that it is called to be a glucose deprivation mimic drug with a chemo- preventive and chemo- therapeutic effects. The calorie restriction effect of resveratrol is the deriving force for the enhanced cytotoxicity and apoptosis and the reduced angiogeneis of colorectal cancer cells.

The Epigenetic Keys to Therapeutics Effectiveness of Fluoropyrimidine Therapy in Colorectal Cancer. Global DNA methylation as 5- methyl cytosines could be considered as a prognostic determinant of treatment efficacy. The methylation and expression of cycloxygenase and fluoropyrimidine metabolizing genes exhibited a clinical significance for individualized treatment. The Molecular Follow- Up along with the Clinicopathological Follow- Up is crucial for best management of colorectal cancer.
