Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a feared component in over 200 interstitial pulmonary diseases, which are characterized by increased alveolar wall thickness, excessive scarring, and aberrant extracellular matrix restructuring that, ultimately, affect lung compliance capacity. As result of its broad range biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic, many others, resveratrol has been shown to be an effective treatment for respiratory system disease, infectious cancer. This work reviews the known molecular therapeutic targets potential mechanisms action attenuating PF cancer, COVID-19, diseases (ILDs) etiologies, idiopathic pneumonia, ILDs associated with systemic disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, sclerosis, Schrödinger’s syndrome, lupus erythematosus, hypertension.

ABSTRACT Annually, a growing body of studies substantiates the health advantages polyphenolic compounds, yet their practical application is constrained by swift metabolism and low bioavailability. Resveratrol, stilbene derivative showcasing typical traits, particularly noteworthy. Despite abundant bioavailability data from in vitro animal studies, applying these findings to humans demands nuanced consideration. The objective this article conduct meta‐analysis on clinical trial data, systematically assessing oral resveratrol deriving meaningful insights into its efficacy humans. To achieve goal, we thoroughly examined publications across five major global databases: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Embase, Science Direct. study exclusively included trials involving healthy adults, where pharmacokinetic parameters were measured following administration at least one dose as single preparation.
