Melatonin and (−)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate: Partners in Fighting Cancer [PDF]
Cells, 2019 We have demonstrated previously that melatonin attenuates hepatotoxicity triggered by high doses of (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in mice. The current work investigated the influence of melatonin on the oncostatic activity of EGCG in two cancer cell lines, wherein melatonin induced an opposite response of p21.

Inhibitory Effects of (−)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate on Esophageal Cancer [PDF]
Molecules, 2019 There is epidemiological evidence showing that drinking green tea can lower the risk of esophageal cancer (EC). The effect is mainly attributed to tea polyphenols and their most abundant component, (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). The possible mechanisms of tumorigenesis inhibition of EGCG include its suppressive effects on cancer cell ...
