Resveratrol (RES), a natural polyphenol that is abundant in grapes, exerts anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and antiviral bioactive effects. Protective effects of RES against pseudorabies virus (PrV)- induced reproductive failure were investigated in a mice model. Injection of PrV partially induced stillbirth and abortion, and caused poor growth of progeny. Treatment with RES attenuated the reproductive failure induced by the virus with recovery of the serum progesterone level. RES improved the growth performance of newborn mice. RES can atte...
