This study describes cell growth inhibition through invitro, invivo antileishmanial and cytotoxic effect of Resveratrol. Resveratrol was tested at range of concentration of 1 - 10 µg/ml for invitro analysis on L-tropica strain for 24 – 72 h, whereas Sodium Stibogluconate was reference drug. BALB/c mice were subjected to invivo test relative to negative control, while mammalian cells (Lymphocytes) were used in cytotoxic test. After 72 h, tested compound showed significant results against promastigotes at concentration of 1 µg/ml, 2.5 µg/ml, 5 µg/ml, 7.5 µg/ml and 10 µg/ml which were 90.5 ± 0.02, 95.2 ± 0.07, 96.5 ± 0.05, 97.8 ± 0.03 and 98.2 ± 0.04 respectively. After 6 weeks, it showed promising results against intracellular amastigotes in mean lesion size which decrease from 0.9 ± 0.2 mm to 0.25 ± 0.2 mm (p < 0.02) where as 10 mg/kg (dose) was subjected to BALB/c mice which exhibited decrease in percentage cure rate up to 94.01 (95 % C.I = 92.01 – 96.21). IC50 values of lymphocytes showed 14.23 µg/ml (95 % C.I = 10.05 – 17.56) against Resveratrol. After analysis, it was observed that Resveratrol possesses anti-leishmanial activities against the cell growth of L. tropica and has no effect on lymphocytes.
