(-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate is a tea flavonoid with potent antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and anticarcinogenic properties. (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate is reported to inhibit EGFR signaling and thereby exert anticancer effects[1]. (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is a glutamate dehydrogenase 1/2 (GDH1/2, GLUD1/2) inhibitor. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate induces oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) by activating cytochrome c oxidase.

体外研究 (In Vitro)
(-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) inhibits activation EGFR, HER2 and HER3 in the SW837 human colon cancer cell line. (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (10 μM) also inhibits cell growth, suppresses activation of EGFR, HER2, and HER3, and causes decrease in the levels of COX-2 and Bcl-xL proteins, and apoptosis after treatment for 96 h[1]. (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (0-35 μg/mL) inhibits the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells. (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (35 μg/mL) induces apoptosis of colorectal cancer cells[3]. (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG; 50, 75 and 100 μM) dose-dependently inhibits the growth of HepG2 cells, and induces apoptosis in HepG2 cells[4].

Cell Assay [3]
LoVo, SW480, HCT-8, and HT-29 cells are seeded in 96-well plates at a concentration of 5×103 cells; each cell line is totally seeded in the 12 wells. Complete medium is added to the wells, up to 200 μL; the medium contains 0 μg/mL, 10 μg/mL, 20 μg/mL, and 35 μg/mL of (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate. The inhibition rate=[1 – (absorbance of (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate group – absorbance of control group)/(absorbance of control group – absorbance of blank control group)] × 100[3].

Animal Administration [3]
Mice[3] At 2 weeks postsurgery, 39 out of the 40 nude mice presented with tumors. Based on the volume of the tumors, the 39 mice with tumors are divided into four groups: a control group (n=9); a group that receives 5 mg/kg of (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (n=10); a group that receives 10 mg/kg of (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (n=10); and a group that receives 20 mg/kg of (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate (n=10). In the therapeutic groups, (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate is administrated intragastrically, and in the control group, 100 uL of physiological saline is administrated intragastrically, once daily for 14 days. After the treatment of the mice with (-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate for 4 weeks, the growth and metastasis of the primary tumors are continuously monitored using a fluorescent imaging system. After 4 weeks, the primary tumors are weighed and immediately put into liquid nitrogen (−196°C) and 2 to 3 hours later, these specimens are stored at −80°C. In addition, the other parts of the primary tumor and metastases are fixed in 4% formaldehyde[3].

(-)-Epigallocatechin (Epigallocatechin) is the most abundant flavonoid in green tea, can bind to unfolded native polypeptides and prevent conversion to amyloid fibrils.
体外研究 (In Vitro)
(-)-Epigallocatechin (EGC) is a potent inhibitor of amyloidogenic cystatin I66Q amyloid fibril formation in vitro. Computational analysis suggests that (-)-Epigallocatechin prevents amyloidogenic cystatin fibril formation by stabilizing the molecule in its native-like state as opposed to redirecting aggregation to disordered, amorphous aggregates [1]. Combined curcumin and EGCG treatment reduced the cancer stem-like Cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44)-positive cell population. Western blot and immunoprecipitation analyses revealed that curcumin and (-)-Epigallocatechin (EGC) specifically inhibited STAT3 phosphorylation and STAT3-NFkB interaction was retained [2]. (-)-Epigallocatechin (EGC) exhibits a MIC and MBC of 5 μg/mL and 20 μg/mL respectively and effectively eradicated E. faecalis biofilms. (-)-Epigallocatechin induces the formation of hydroxyl radicals in E. faecalis. The addition of DIP protected E. faecalis against EGCG-mediated antibacterial effects. At sub-MIC, (-)-Epigallocatechin induces significant down-regulation of E. faecalis virulence genes [3].
