Wine and chocolate chemical could harm muscles
• The impact of resveratrol and hydrogen peroxide on muscle cell plasticity shows a dose-dependent interaction, published in Scientific Reports, January 2015.
• Blunted hypertrophic response in old mouse muscle is associated with a lower satellite cell density and is not alleviated by resveratrol, published in Experimental Gerontology, February 2015.

Wine and chocolate chemical could harm muscles
New research has demonstrated how the amount of the compound resveratrol determines whether it acts as antioxidant with anti-ageing properties or has a toxic effect and hinders muscle tissue repair.
...
“The results showed that the effects are dependent on the dose and it is unclear from the equivocal results if drinking wine or eating chocolate would have anti-ageing properties and repair muscle or the opposite.”
Using muscle cells in vitro, researchers tested the cycle of muscle regeneration which starts with the activation of muscle satellite cells and continues with myoblast proliferation, migration and withdrawal from the cell. The final step is the satellite cell’s fusion with the damaged muscle fibre.
Low doses stimulated this satellite cell activation and migration while higher concentrations stopped it, and even had a cytotoxic effect on the cell.
