The catechin, epigallocatechin gallate (eGCG), found in green tea, has inhibitory activity against a number of protein toxins and was investigated in relation to its impact upon ricin toxin (RT) in vitro. The IC(50) for RT was 0.08±0.004 ng/mL whereas the IC(50) for RT+100 μM eGCG was 3.02±0.572 ng/mL, indicating that eGCG mediated a significant (p<0.0001) reduction in ricin toxicity. This expe...
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a bioactive polyphenol in green tea, may augment metabolic and vascular actions of insulin. Therefore, we investigated effects of EGCG treatment to simultaneously improve cardiovascular and metabolic function in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR; model of metabolic syndrome with hypertension, insulin resistance, and overweight). In acute studies, EGCG (1-100 ...
Cardiovascular diseases are closely associated with a high-cholesterol or high-fat diet. The aim of the present study was to investigate the cadioprotective effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in high-fat diet-fed rats, with special emphasis on myocardial infarction. A high-fat diet was administered to male Wistar rats for 45 days and the rats of the treatment group were administered EG...
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the main compound of green tea with well-described antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and tumor-suppressing properties. However, EGCG at high doses was reported to cause liver injury. In this study, we evaluated the effect of EGCG on primary culture of rat hepatocytes and on rat liver mitochondria in permeabilized hepatocytes. The 24-hour incubation with EGCG i...
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a major polyphenol in green tea, is widely studied as a cancer chemopreventive agent with potential anti-cancer effects. The NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling pathway is considered to mediate cellular resistance to EGCG. Metformin, a classical antidiabe...
Selenium participates in the antioxidant defense mainly through a class of selenoproteins, including thioredoxin reductase. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the most abundant and biologically active catechin in green tea. Depending upon the dose and biological systems, EGCG may function either as an antioxidant or as an inducer of antioxidant defense via its pro-oxidant action or other unid...
The inhibition of acid production from dental plaque and mutans streptococci by epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), one of the green tea catechins, was examined. The effect of EGCg solution on dental plaque pH was investigated. Subjects rinsed their mouths with 2 mg/ml EGCg solution and then, after 30-min interval, rinsed their mouths with 10% sucrose. Plaque samples were collected at appropriate ...
BACKGROUND There is evidence that the tea catechin epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) modulates myocardial contractility. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be determined. AIMS To study potential signalling pathways involved in EGCG-induced contractile parameters. METHODS AND RESULTS EGCG increased fractional shortening in rat cardiac myocytes and enhanced intracellular systolic Ca...
An enhanced activity of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), such as the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) alpha-receptor (PDGF-Ralpha) or the PDGF beta-receptor (PDGF-Rbeta), is involved in the development of proliferative diseases. We have previously demonstrated that green tea catechins containing a galloyl group in the third position of the catechin structure interfere with PDGF-BB-induced...
Potential mechanisms for the synergistic cytotoxicity elicited by epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) (25 microM) and 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-OHT) (1 microM) in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells were investigated. The role of apoptosis was determined using chromatin condensation and Annexin-V staining. Condensed chromatin was visible following 24 h of combination treatment while flow cytometry exp...
