HIDE SMILES / InChI
Pterostilbene is a naturally derived compound found primarily in blueberries and Pterocarpus marsupium heartwood. The multiple benefits of pterostilbene in the treatment and prevention of human disease have been attributed to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties leading to improved function of normal cells and inhibition of malignant cells. The antioxidant activity of pterostilbene has been implicated in anti-carcinogenesis, modulation of neurological disease, anti-inflammation, attenuation of vascular disease, and amelioration of diabetes. Pterostilbene increases LDL and reduces blood pressure in adults. Low doses of pterostilbene seem to hold some benefit for cognition.

Pterostilbene inhibited the growth of normal fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner similar to resveratrol (IC50 60 uM for both), and pterostilbene also caused cell cycle imbalance in a manner similar to that of resveratrol.
