Oxidization increases the binding of EGCG to serum albumin revealed by kinetic data from label-free optical biosensor with reference channel.

Only registered users can translate articles

Epigallocatechin-gallate (EGCG) is the main polyphenol ingredient of green tea. This compound is a strong antioxidant and oxidizes easily. Numerous studies demonstrated its beneficial effects on the human health, for example its anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity. In the body, EGCG is

Effect of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate on the fibrillation of human serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant plasma protein in the human body is known to form fibrils under partial denaturing conditions. Natural polyphenols are known to interact with HSA and some polyphenols have been shown to be potent inhibitors of amyloid fibrillation. (-)-Epigallocatechin

An integrated approach with experimental and computational tools outlining the cooperative binding between 2-phenylchromone and human serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

2-Phenylchromone (2PHE) is a flavone, found in cereals and herbs, indispensable in the human diet. Its chemical structure is the basis of all flavonoids present in black and green tea, soybean, red fruits and so on. Although offering such nutritional value, it still requires a molecular approach to

Complexes of green tea polyphenol, epigalocatechin-3-gallate, and 2S albumins of peanut.

Only registered users can translate articles

2S albumins of peanuts are seed storage proteins, highly homologous in structure and described as major elicitors of anaphylactic reactions to peanut (allergens Ara h 2 and Ara h 6). Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the most biologically potent polyphenol of green tea. Non-covalent interactions

Evaluation of non-covalent interactions between serum albumin and green tea catechins by affinity capillary electrophoresis.

Only registered users can translate articles

The natural antioxidant-associated biological responses appear contradictory since biologically active dosages registered in vitro experiments are considerably higher if compared to concentrations found in vivo. The recent research indicates that natural antioxidants, including the major catechins

Albumin stabilizes (-)-epigallocatechin gallate in human serum: binding capacity and antioxidant property.

Only registered users can translate articles

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) is the major component of green tea and is known to show strong biological activity, although it can be easily oxidized under physiological conditions. In this study, we indicate that EGCg is stable in human serum and that human serum albumin (HSA) stabilizes EGCg

Influence of the galloyl moiety in tea catechins on binding affinity for human serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

The major catechins of green tea extract are (-)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECg), and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg). Recent research has indicated that catechins form complexes with human serum albumin (HSA) in blood, and differences in their binding

Oxidative deamination of benzylamine and lysine residue in bovine serum albumin by green tea, black tea, and coffee.

Only registered users can translate articles

Oxidative deamination by various polyphenolic compounds is presumed to be due to the oxidative conversion of polyphenols to the corresponding quinones through autoxidation. Here we examined the oxidative deamination by the polyphenol-rich beverages green tea, black tea, and coffee at a physiological

Role of the flavan-3-ol and galloyl moieties in the interaction of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate with serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

The principal green tea polyphenol, (-)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCg), may provide chemoprotection against conditions ranging from cardiovascular disease to cancer. Binding to plasma proteins stabilizes EGCg during its transport to targeted tissues. This study explored the details EGCg binding

Effect of (-)-epicatechin-3-gallate and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate on the binding of tegafur to human serum albumin as determined by spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry, and molecular docking.

Only registered users can translate articles

Green tea has attracted great interest as a cancer prevention agent. Interactions of tea polyphenols with serum albumin may influence the efficacy of drugs. The interactions of (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), (-)-epicatechin-3-gallate (ECG), and tegafur (TF) alone or in combination with human

Structural characteristics of green tea catechins for formation of protein carbonyl in human serum albumin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Catechins are polyphenolic antioxidants found in green tea leaves. Recent studies have reported that various polyphenolic compounds, including catechins, cause protein carbonyl formation in proteins via their pro-oxidant actions. In this study, we evaluate the formation of protein carbonyl in human

Binding affinity of tea catechins for HSA: characterization by high-performance affinity chromatography with immobilized albumin column.

Only registered users can translate articles

Catechins are the major polyphenols in green tea leaves. Recent studies have suggested that the catechins form complexes with HSA for transport in human blood, and their binding affinity for albumin is believed to modulate their bioavailability. In this study, the binding affinities of catechins and

An investigation into the altered binding mode of green tea polyphenols with human serum albumin on complexation with copper.

Only registered users can translate articles

Green tea is rich in several polyphenols, such as (-)-epicatechin-3-gallate (ECG), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). The biological importance of these polyphenols led us to study the major polyphenol EGCG with human serum albumin (HSA) in an earlier study. In

Oxidative Deamination of Serum Albumins by (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-Gallate: A Potential Mechanism for the Formation of Innate Antigens by Antioxidants.

Only registered users can translate articles

(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG), the most abundant polyphenol in green tea, mediates the oxidative modification of proteins, generating protein carbonyls. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here we analyzed the EGCG-derived intermediates generated upon incubation

Influence of galloyl moiety in interaction of epicatechin with bovine serum albumin: a spectroscopic and thermodynamic characterization.

Only registered users can translate articles

The health benefits stemming from green tea are well known, but the exact mechanism of its biological activity is not elucidated. Epicatechin (EC) and epicatechin gallate (ECG) are two dietary catechins ubiquitously present in green tea. Serum albumins functionally carry these catechins through the
