Antiviral Effects of Green Tea EGCG and Its Potential Application against COVID-19
Molecules, 2021 (–)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG), the most abundant component of catechins in tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze), plays a role against viruses through inhibiting virus invasiveness, restraining gene expression and replication.

Interactions of (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate with model lipid membranes
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2022 (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a flavonoid known for its good antioxidant potential and health benefits. It is one of the most intriguing flavonoids, especially because of its specific interactions with model lipid membranes. It was noticed that EGCG might form EGCG rich domains/rafts at certain compositions of lipid membranes.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Translating dynamic liquid‐liquid phase separation into robust solid‐state architectures remains a challenge in materials engineering. Here, we report a composition‐driven interfacial assembly strategy that couples supramolecular coacervation with metal‐phenolic coordination to engineer tunable fungicide carriers.

Epigallocatechin and epigallocatechin-3-gallate are not inhibitors of tyrosinase
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry LettersInhibition of tyrosinase by gallic acid, epigallocatechin, and epigallocatechin-3-gallate has been recently described in several publications. However, oxidation of these compounds by this enzyme was demonstrated long time ago. Gallic acid also reduced tyrosinase-generated o-quinones.

Three New Oxidation Products Produced from Epigallocatechin-3--gallate and Epicatechin-3--gallate
Natural Product Communications, 2016 During chemical studies on uncharacterized black tea polyphenols, the enzymatic oxidation of a mixture of epigallocatechin-3- O -gallate ( 1 ) and epicatechin-3- O -gallate ( 2 ) was examined, and three new dimeric products together with six known ...

Effects of Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate on Autophagic Lipolysis in Adipocytes [PDF]
Nutrients, 2017 Previous studies demonstrated effects of green tea on weight loss; however, green tea-induced modulation of adipocyte function is not fully understood. Here, we investigated effects of the major green tea phytochemical, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on triglyceride contents, lipolysis, mitochondrial function, and autophagy, in adipocytes ...
