Thrombosis is the primary cause of death in patients with cancer. Resveratrol inhibits platelet activation, a crucial pathophysiological basis of thrombosis, in healthy individuals. However, its effects and mechanisms of action in patients with colon cancer remain unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of resveratrol on platelet adhesion and aggregation in patients with colon cancer. Through numerous in vitro and in vivo analyses, including flow cytometry, western blotting, ELISA, and immunofluorescence and colon cancer rat models, we demonstrated that resveratrol reduced thrombosis in patients with colon cancer by inhibiting the phosphorylation of the MAPK and activating the cyclic-GMP/vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein pathway. These findings demonstrate the potential of resveratrol in reducing thrombosis in patients with colon cancer and could be used to develop novel therapeutic strategies for this condition.
