Effects of Orally Administered Resveratrol on TNF, IL-1β, Leukocyte Phagocytic Activity and Oxidative Burst Function in Horses: A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Study.
Abstract: Resveratrol, a phytophenol, is a commonly used equine nutraceutical supplement touted to exert anti-inflammatory effects. The effect of orally administered resveratrol on tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), leukocyte phagocytic activity or oxidative burst function have not been reported in horses. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of a commercially available, orally administered resveratrol product on innate immune functions in healthy adult horses. Whole blood was collected from 12 horses prior to and following 3 weeks of treatment with either the manufacturer's recommended dose of resveratrol or placebo. Phagocytosis, oxidative burst and pathogen associated molecular pattern (PAMP) motif-stimulated leukocyte production of TNF and IL-1β were compared pre- and post-treatment between treatment groups. Phagocytosis and oxidative burst capacity were evaluated via flow cytometry. Tumor necrosis factor and IL-1β were measured using cytotoxicity and ELISA assays, respectively. There were no significant differences in phagocytosis, oxidative burst or stimulated TNF or IL-1β production between resveratrol and placebo treatment groups. Orally administered resveratrol at a routinely recommended dose for a duration of 3 weeks did not significantly affect phagocytic activity, oxidative burst function or PAMP-stimulated leukocyte cytokine production.

The study aimed to identify the effects of using a commercially available resveratrol product, known for its anti-inflammatory attributes, on the innate immune functions in healthy horses. It was found that administering the product orally for three weeks had no significant impact on phagocytic activity, oxidative burst function, or cytokine production.
Objective of the Study
- The main aim of the study was to examine the influence of orally administered resveratrol on innate immune functions in healthy adult horses. The focus was predominantly on how resveratrol might affect tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), leukocyte phagocytic activity or oxidative burst function.
Methodology of the Study
- 12 horses participated in this study. Blood samples were collected from these horses before and after a three-week treatment period.
- The horses were given treatment with either the resveratrol product or a placebo at the manufacturer’s recommended dosage.
- Phagocytosis, the ability of a cell to engulf particles or bacteria, and oxidative burst, a rapid release of reactive oxygen species from different types of cells, were measured through flow cytometry.
- The levels of TNF-a protein involved in systemic inflammation-and IL-1β-a group of cytokines that play important roles in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses were measured using cytotoxicity and ELISA assays respectively.
Results of the Study
- The results showed no significant differences between the group treated with resveratrol and the placebo group, in terms of phagocytosis, oxidative burst, and TNF and IL-1β production.
- The study concluded that oral administration of resveratrol at the manufacturer-recommended dose for a duration of three weeks had no impact on phagocytic activity, oxidative burst function or the production of cytokines in response to pathogen associated molecular pattern (PAMP) stimulation in leukocytes.
Implications of the Study
- The outcomes of this study challenge the common perception of resveratrol’s potential to exert anti-inflammatory effects. It suggests that longer-term or higher dosage may be needed to see significant effects, if there are any, in horses.
- This research can help inform decisions around the utilization and effectiveness of resveratrol as a supplement for horses, leading to better health and care practices for these animals.
