Antiviral effect of catechins in green tea on influenza virus.
Polyphenolic compound catechins ((-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG) and (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC)) from green tea were evaluated for their ability to inhibit influenza virus replication in cell culture and for potentially direct virucidal effect. Among the test compounds, the EGCG and ECG were found to be potent inhibitors of influenza virus replication in MDCK ...
متن کاملInhibition of pectin methyl esterase activity by green tea catechins.
Pectin methyl esterases (PMEs) and their endogenous inhibitors are involved in the regulation of many processes in plant physiology, ranging from tissue growth and fruit ripening to parasitic plant haustorial formation and host invasion. Thus, control of PME activity is critical for enhancing our understanding of plant physiological processes and regulation. Here, we report on the identificatio...
متن کاملHuman Serum Albumin Increases the Stability of Green Tea Catechins in Aqueous Physiological Conditions
Epicatechin (EC), epigallocatechin (EGC), epicatechingallate (ECG) and epigallocatechingallate (EGCG) are antioxidants present in the green tea, a widely used beverage whose health benefits are largely recognized. Nevertheless, major physicochemical limitations, such as the high instability of catechins, pose important questions concerning their potential pharmacological use. Recent studies ind...
متن کاملEffect of tea catechins on the change of glutathione levels caused by Pb(++) in PC12 cells.
Our previous research showed that tea catechins could significantly increase the viability of lead-exposed PC12 cells. Whereas the cellular thiol status is known to be responsible for protecting against lead-induced toxicity, whether the role of tea catechins on lead-induced PC12 cell toxicity is related to the metabolism of intracellular thiol compounds remained vague. In the present study, it...
متن کاملPrimary Cancer Prevention by Green Tea, and Tertiary Cancer Prevention by the Combination of Green Tea Catechins and Anticancer Compounds
Green tea is a daily beverage, a non-oxidized non-fermented product containing at least four green tea catechins. Considering our first results when repeated applications of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) prevented tumor promotion in mouse skin, we have continued to look at green tea as a possible cancer preventive agent. 1) The 10-year prospective cohort study by Drs. K. Nakachi and K. Im...
