Nonetheless, evidence regarding prophylactic effects of purple shoot on immunomodulation remains scarce. We compared the immunomodulatory different processes oxidative stress cytokine expressions in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages. Major constituents four products, Taiwan Tea Experiment Station No.12 (TTES No. 12) (TB, TG, PB PG, respectively), were analyzed to explore free radicals, nitric oxide (NO), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), interleukin 6 (IL-6) tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) LPS-activated RAW264.7 cell models.

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is most abundant phenolic compound found green tea. It has been shown to regulate multiple crucial cellular pathways, including those mediated by EGFR, JAK-STAT, MAPKs, NF-κB, PI3K-AKT-mTOR, others. Deregulation abovementioned pathophysiology demonstrated EGCG may exert anti-proliferative, anti-inflammatory, apoptosis-inducing effects or induce epigenetic changes. Furthermore, preclinical clinical studies suggest used numerous disorders, This review aims summarize existing knowledge regarding biological properties EGCG, especially context cancer prophylaxis.

Polyphenols, naturally occurring phytonutrients found in plant-based foods, have attracted significant attention for their potential therapeutic effects neurological diseases and neuroinflammation. These compounds possess diverse neuroprotective capabilities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-amyloid properties, which contribute to mitigating the progression of neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson's (PD), Dementia, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Stroke, Huntington's (HD). Polyphenols been extensively studied ability regulate inflammatory responses by modulating activity pro-inflammatory genes influencing signal transduction pathways, thereby reducing neuroinflammation neuronal death. Additionally, polyphenols shown promise various cellular signaling pathways associated with viability, synaptic plasticity, cognitive function. Epidemiological clinical studies highlight polyphenol-rich diets decrease risk alleviate symptoms disorders Furthermore, demonstrated through regulation key Akt, Nrf2, STAT, MAPK, play critical roles neuroprotection body's immune response. This review emphasizes growing body evidence supporting combating neurodegeneration neuroinflammation, well enhancing brain health. Despite substantial promising hypotheses, further research investigations are necessary fully understand role establish them advanced targets age-related neuroinflammatory conditions.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), a devastating disease with high mortality rate and poor outcomes, tightly associated the dysregulation of iron metabolism ferroptosis. (−)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is one major bioactive compounds tea catechin because its well-known iron-chelating antioxidative activities. However, findings iron-induced cell injuries after SAH remain controversial underlying therapeutic mechanisms EGCG in ferroptosis limited. Here, ability to inhibit death following alleviation neurological function deficits was investigated by using vivo models. As expected, inhibited oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb)-induced over-expression HO-1, which mainly distributed astrocytes microglial cells. Subsequently, blocked ferrous accumulation through HO-1-mediated metabolic reprogramming. Therefore, oxidative stress mitochondrial dysfunction rescued EGCG, resulted downregulation ferritinophagy rather than apoptosis SAH. result, exerted superior effects maintenance homeostasis glial cells, such as well improvement functional outcomes These highlighted that cells were not only iron-rich brain but also susceptible The detrimental role can be regarded an effective target prevention treatment

Abstract Background Histamine (HIS) has a substantial impact on the development of numerous allergic disorders including asthma. Antihistamines mostly target histamine receptor-1 alone, so it is not entirely effective in treatment diseases. In current investigation, we examine growing evidence for novel therapeutic strategies that aim to treat histamine-mediated cardiopulmonary toxicity with phenolic-rich fraction green tea (PRFGT). Results Our findings demonstrated weekly ingestion HIS rats induced oxidant/antioxidant imbalance both lung and heart homogenates. The histopathological examination extensive interstitial pneumonia progressive alveolar bronchial damage receiving groups. Heart sections showed severe myocardial necrosis hemorrhage. All lesions were confirmed by immunohistochemical staining strong caspase-3, cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2), tumor factor-α (TNF-α) protein expressions along upregulation pulmonary m-RNA expression TNF-α, nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) genes cardiac levels many apoptotic genes. Otherwise, pretreatment PRFGT had ability alleviate all aforementioned toxicological parameters return microscopic picture normal histology. Conclusions We concluded PRFGT’s powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic properties can reduce caused HIS. recommended daily intake as beverage or adding foods containing elevated prevent its possible toxicity.
