Inhibition of Collagenases from and Black Tea Theaflavins Mouse
meta]loproteinases (MMPs), probably including MMP-2 and MMP-9, which may be involyed in tumor cell inyasion and metastasis. Theafiayin and theaflavin digallate also inhibited MMPs from the cu]ture inedium of these tumor cells, as did (-)-epigallocatechin gallate. These results suggest that theaffayin, theaffayin digallate, and (-)-epigallecatechin gallate inhibit umor cell inyasien by inhibitin...
متن کاملTheaflavins in black tea and catechins in green tea are equally effective antioxidants.
Green tea catechins, including (-)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC) and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), are oxidized and dimerized during the manufacture of black tea and oolong tea to form orange-red pigments, theaflavins (TF), a mixture of theaflavin (TF1), theaflavin-3-gallate (TF2A), theaflavin-3'-gallate (TF2B) and theaflavin-3,3'-digallate (...
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 کاملEffect of Tea Theaflavins and Catechins on Microvascular Function
Beneficial effects of flavonoid-rich black and green tea on macrocirculation have been well established. Theaflavins are unique to black tea as they are formed from catechins during the enzymatic oxidation of tea leaves. The study was performed to gain more insight into the effects of theaflavins on microcirculation and to compare effects with another important flavonoid class, the green tea de...
متن کاملChemopreventive Potential of Green Tea Catechins in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is a common malignancy worldwide, usually develops in a cirrhotic liver due to hepatitis virus infection. Metabolic syndrome, which is frequently complicated by obesity and diabetes mellitus, is also a critical risk factor for liver carcinogenesis. Green tea catechins (GTCs) may possess potent anticancer and chemopreventive properties for a number of differ...
