Biodistribution of RES (μg/L) in in vivo experiments. Female rats (n = 40) were treated with RES 0.5 mg alone (n = 20) and combined with vitD 0.4 μg (n = 20) by gavage. The animals were sacrificed at specific time-points (ranging 30–270 min) and heart (a), kidney (b) and liver (c) were collected. The results are expressed as means ± SD (μg/L) of 4 independent experiments. * not significant vs control; point without symbol, p < 0.05 vs control. RES = resveratrol 0.5 mg; RES + vitD = preparation composed of RES 0.5 mg and vitD 0.4 μg
