Epigallocathechin gallate, polyphenol present in green tea, inhibits stem-like characteristics and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in nasopharyngeal cancer cell lines
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated that the consumption of green tea inhibits the growth of various cancers. Most cancers are believed to be initiated from and maintained by a small population of cancer stem-like cells (CSC) or tumor-initiating cells (TIC) that are responsible for tumor relapse and chemotherapeutic resistance. Although epigallocathechin gallate (EGCG), the most abund...
متن کاملDressing conformability and silver- containing wound dressings
Background: All wounds have unique and irregular topographies, including cavities where fluids and bacteria may collect and increase the risk of wound infection. Aims: To qualitatively and quantitatively investigate the relationship between the physical structure of antiseptic wound dressings and their ability to manage bioburden in models that simulate clinical conditions. Methods: In vitro mo...
متن کاملP2X4 is up-regulated in gingival fibroblasts after periodontal surgery.
Several studies have shown that surgical detachment of marginal gingiva close to the cervical cementum of molar teeth in a rat mandible is a distinct stimulus for alveolar bone resorption. Recently, we found that P2X4, an ATP-receptor, is significantly up-regulated in marginal gingival cells soon after surgery. We hypothesized that local release of ATP signaling through P2X4 elicits activation ...
متن کاملAnxiolytic properties of green tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).
Naturally occurring polyphenols are potent antioxidants. Some of these compounds are also ligands for the GABA(A) receptor benzodiazepine site. This feature endows them with sedative properties. Here, the anxiolytic activity of the green tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) was investigated after acute administration in mice, using behavioral tests (elevated plus-maze and passive ...

Unorthodox (non-traditional or alternative) medicinal practices have been expanding very rapidly in western countries. Modern physicians, scientists, and non-traditional medicine practitioners now must join forces to promote evidence-based medicine to benefit patients. Green tea extracts are among the most widely used ancient medicinal agents, while androgens are probably the oldest drugs used ...
