Recent data have shown strong chemopreventive and possibly cancer chemotherapeutic effects of green tea polyphenols and EGCG against breast cancer. This systematic review aims to synthesize data on the possible interaction of green tea catechins with breast cancer endocrine treatment. Electronic databases were searched with the appropriate search terms. Experimental trials suggest a synergistic...

background: radiation-induced discomfort is frequently observed during pelvic radiotherapy. this study was performed to determine the effect of a green tea tablet to reduce the incidence of radiation-induced diarrhea and vomiting in patients with abdomen and pelvic malignancy. materials and methods: this randomized controlled clinical trial recruited 42 patients with abdomen and pelvic malignan...

polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) is a reproductive and metabolic disorder in which thelevel of oxidative elements in blood rises. green tea is a potent antioxidant since it containscatechins. in this study, the effect of hydro-alcoholic green tea extract on pcos rats was examined.for pcos induction, 96 mature wistar rats were given estradiol valerate. after 60 days, therats were divided into fo...

abstract little information is available concerning morphological responses of lolium perenne cultivars (numan and speedy green) to salinity and trinexapac-ethyl treatment in initial growth. in order to evaluate the effect of salinity treatment (0, 2000, 4000 and 6000 mg/lit) and trinexapac-ethyl levels (0, 50, 100 gr/ha) on morphological responses of 'numan' and 'speedy green' in initial growt...

sensitivity of tomato fruit to low temperature and chilling injury limits the storage, handling and marketability of the fruit. as a recommended postharvest treatment, effects of hot water treatment (hwt) on reducing chilling injury and quality traits, variation of tomato fruits during storage life were investigated. tomato fruits were harvested at mature green stage. they were treated by hot w...

green architecture, or green design, is an approach to building that minimizes harmful effects on human health and the environment. the “green” architect or designer attempts to safeguard air, water, and earth by choosing eco-friendly building materials and construction practices. so, green architecture is building and structure design philosophy that aims at minimal use of non-renewable and/or...

one of the most effective ways to reach yield stability with low input is increasing diversity through utilizing intercrops in agro-ecosystems. a field experiment based on a randomized complete block design with six treatments and three replications and two crops, green pea and nutrifed millet, was carried out at research farm of agriculture and natural resources of kerman during growing season...

to study the effects of different fertilizing systems using green manure and zeoponix on grain yield and its components in sunflower, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of collage of agriculture, tarbiat modares university in 2010 and 2011. the experimental treatments were arranged as split plot design on the base of a complete randomized block design with three replications. two ...

Green tea polyphenols (GTP) are highly effective in inhibiting a variety of tumorigenic effects induced by carcinogens. In this study we assessed GTP mitigation on biomarkers of fumonisin B1 (FB1), a class 2B carcinogen, in blood and urine samples collected from an intervention trial. A total of 124 exposed people were recruited and randomly assigned to low-dose (GTP 500 mg, n = 42), high-dose ...
