These results suggest the epigenetic role of EGCG and its potential implication in breast cancer therapy.
PMID: Molecules. 2019 Aug 9 ;24(16). Epub 2019 Aug 9. PMID: 31404982 Abstract Title: The Inhibitory Effect of (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate on Breast Cancer Progression via ReducingMethylation and DNMT Activity. Abstract: Epigenetic modifications are important mechanisms responsible for cancer progression. Accumulating data suggest that (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the most abundant catechin of green tea, may hamper carcinogenesis by …
These findings suggest that a combination of ONO-8711 and EGCG is a potential treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma therapy.
PMID: Pharmacology. 2019 Aug 21:1-9. Epub 2019 Aug 21. PMID: 31434088 Abstract Title: Synergetic Effect of EP1 Receptor Antagonist and (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate in Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Abstract: Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the principal catechin of green tea, modulates different molecular mechanisms underlying hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Accumulating studies showed that the activation of prostaglandin (PG) receptor EP1 promotes cell migration …
