This study compared the in vitro responses of malignant and normal cells from the human oral cavity to tea extracts and to its main polyphenolic component, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). The antiproliferative effects of tea polyphenolic extracts and EGCG were more pronounced towards
The probable structure of the inclusion complex of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) in D2O was investigated using several NMR techniques. EGCg formed a 1:1 complex with beta-CD, in which the A ring and a portion of the C ring of EGCg were included at the head of
We attempted to identify mouse bitter taste receptors, Tas2rs, that respond to tea catechins. Among representative tea catechins, avoidance behavior of mice to (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECg) was the strongest, followed by (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg). Therefore, we measured ECg response using
The structure of inclusion complexes of gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD), (-)-gallocatechin gallate (GCg), and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) in D(2)O was investigated using several NMR techniques. GCg formed a 1:1 inclusion complex with gamma-CD in which the A and C rings of GCg were inserted
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the acid resistance of various antibacterial ammonium hexafluorosilicate (SiF) solutions.
METHODS
Antibacterial SiF solutions were prepared with the addition of chlorhexidine (CHX), cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), isopropyl methylphenol (IPMP), or epigallocatechin gallate
In this work, the interaction of a bioactive tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) with bovine hemoglobin (BHb) along with its anti-oxidative behavior and the anti-glycation property have been explored using multi-spectroscopic and computational techniques. The binding affinity for EGCG
The aim of this study was to evaluate influence of protease inhibitors on degradation of sound, sclerotic and caries-affected dentin. Thirty-nine molars were used, thirteen for each dentin condition. Three slices were obtained from each tooth, each one immersed in the following different solutions
OBJECTIVE
Fluoride and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) have been proven to prevent dental caries. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of fluoride and EGCG on soft-drink-induced dental erosion in vitro.
METHODS
Forty enamel and dentin specimens were prepared from extracted human
This study evaluated the biologic activity of epicatechin gallate (ECG), a polyphenol in tea, to carcinoma HSC-2 cells and normal HGF-2 fibroblasts cells from the human oral cavity. The relative cytotoxicity of ECG, as compared to five other polyphenols in tea, was evaluated. For the HSC-2 carcinoma
The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on aging-mediated cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and apoptosis. The Wistar albino rats were divided into 4 groups (n = 18). Group I: young (3 months), group II: aged (24-26 months), group III: aged + EGCG
To evaluate the combined use of Lactobacillus salivarius WB21 and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) for oral health maintenance.The effects of L. salivarius WB21 on growth of Streptococcus mutans, the insoluble glucan produced by S. mutans, and on growth Green tea is a popular drink throughout the world, and it contains various components, including the green tea polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Tea interacts with saliva upon entering the mouth, so the interaction between saliva and EGCG interested us, especially with respect to
Streptococcus mutans, the primary etiologic agent of dental caries, possesses a series of virulence factors associated with its cariogenicity. Alternatives to traditional antimicrobial treatment, agents selectively inhibiting the virulence factors without necessarily suppressing the resident oral
The 8 nm diameter cavity endows the ferritin cage with a natural space to encapsulate food components. In this work, urea was explored as a novel medium to facilitate the formation of ferritin-polyphenol co-assemblies. Results indicated that urea (20 mM) could expand the 4-fold channel size of
Inclusion complexes of (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECg) as well as (+)-gallocatechin gallate (GCg) and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) in an aqueous solution were investigated using several NMR techniques and a computational method. ECg and EGCg formed a 1:1 complex with beta-CD, in which the A ring and a
