Green Tea Polyphenol Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate Attenuates Behavioral Abnormality in Hemi-Parkinsonian Rat
Background: Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a major constituent of green tea, has been introduced as a potent free radical scavenger and can effectively reduce free radical-induced lipid peroxidation. Since free radical injury plays an important role in neuronal damage in Parkinson’s disease (PD), this study examined whether EGCG administration would reduce functional asymmetry in an experimen...
متن کاملEnhancement of Cisplatin Sensitivity in Human Cervical Cancer: Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate
Cisplatin is one of the effective chemotherapeutics in the treatment of several types of cancers. However, in addition to the efforts against to its toxicity, the amelioration of cisplatin sensitivity is an important point in treatment of cervical cancer. To do so, additional substances such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a polyphenol in green tea, have been used in combination with chemot...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate in an experimental model of Alzheimer’s disease in rat: a histological study
Abstract Introduction: Neurodegeneration change is one of the hallmark symptoms of which Alzheimer’s disease (AD) can be modeled by β-amyloid injection into specific regions of brain. (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a potent antioxidant agent that its role against oxidative stress and inflammation has been shown in prior studies. In the present study, we have wanted to determine wh...
متن کاملThe Beneficial Effect of (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate in an Experimental Model of Alzheimer’s disease in Rat: a Behavioral Analysis
Progressive cognitive decline is one of the hallmark symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) which can be modeled by β-amyloid injection into specific regions of brain. Since epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a potent antioxidant agent which its role against oxidative stress and inflammation has been shown in prior studies, we tried to determine whether EGCG administration protects against β-am...
متن کاملEpigallocatechin-3-gallate protects against cisplatin nephrotoxicity by inhibiting the apoptosis in mouse.
Cisplatin (CP) is a commonly used anticancer drug, but its notable side effect of nephrotoxicity limits its use in clinic. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), an anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumorigenic green tea polyphenol, has been available on the market for its beneficial effects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether EGCG can prevent the nephrotoxic effect of CP and ...
