Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate Reduces Cytotoxic Effects Caused by Dental Monomers: A Hypothesis
Resin monomers from dental composite materials leached due to incomplete polymerization or biodegradation may cause contact allergies and damage dental pulp. The cytotoxicity of dental resin monomers is due to a disturbance of intracellular redox equilibrium, characterized by an overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and depletion of reduced glutathione (GSH). Oxidative stress caused b...
متن کاملAnticancer effects and molecular mechanisms of epigallocatechin-3-gallate
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a type of catechin found in green tea. EGCG exhibits a variety of activities, including anti-inflammatory, antidiabetes, antiobesity, and antitumor. In this review, we focus on the antitumor effects of EGCG. EGCG inhibits carcinogen activity, tumorigenesis, proliferation, and angiogenesis, and induces cell death. These effects are associated with modulation ...
متن کاملEffects of Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate on Autophagic Lipolysis in Adipocytes
Previous studies demonstrated effects of green tea on weight loss; however, green tea-induced modulation of adipocyte function is not fully understood. Here, we investigated effects of the major green tea phytochemical, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on triglyceride contents, lipolysis, mitochondrial function, and autophagy, in adipocytes differentiated from C₃H10T1/2 cells and immortalized ...
متن کاملEpigallocatechin-3-gallate reduces inflammation induced by calcium pyrophosphate crystals in vitro
Although osteoarthritis (OA) is defined as a cartilage disease, synovitis involving mononuclear cell infiltration and overexpression of proinflammatory mediators is common in early and late OA. Calcium crystals deposition is thought to be a factor that likely contributes to synovial inflammation. In recent years, significant interest has emerged in the beneficial health effects attributed to th...
متن کاملEGFR inhibition by (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate and IIF treatments reduces breast cancer cell invasion
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression is an important marker in breast carcinoma pathology and is considered a pivotal molecule for cancer cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis. We investigated the effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the most active green tea catechin, in combination with 6-OH-11-O-hydroxyphenanthrene (IIF), a synthetic retinoid X receptor-γ (RXRγ) ...
