Resveratrol and related stilbene derivatives induce stress granules with distinct clearance kinetics

Abstract
We show that resveratrol and its analogues, piceatannol, pterostilbene, and 3,4,5,4’-tetramethoxystilbene, induce stress granule formation with atypically rapid clearance kinetics. Resveratrol-induced stress granules form in Arabidopsis thaliana plant cells and human cells, but do not form in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
