Epigallocatechin Gallate Extends Therapeutic Window of Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator Treatment for Brain Ischemic Stroke: A Randomized Double-Blind and Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is a safe and effective treatment for acute brain ischemia stroke, albeit with a narrow therapeutic window. We aimed to assess the effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in extending the rt-PA treatment window in this clinical trial among

The functional effect of epigallocatechin gallate on ischemic stroke in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

We evaluated the efficacy of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) for improving function in rats with transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Three procedures underwent for each groups; MCAO and EGCG treatment, MCAO without treatment (MCAO control), and sham operation. Function was evaluated

Epigallocatechin Gallate Extends the Therapeutic Window of Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator Treatment in Ischemic Rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Ischemic stroke is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. To date, recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) remains the only safe and effective pharmaceutical treatment for brain ischemia, but delayed rt-PA administration leads to hyperperfusion, which severely

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate as an intervention for the acute treatment of cerebral ischemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study examined the neuroprotective effects and possible hepatotoxicity of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in a rat model of transient focal cerebral ischemia. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (265-295 g) were treated with either 50 mg kg(-1) of EGCG or saline, i.p., immediately post-ischemia and

Preventive effects of green tea catechins on spontaneous stroke in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Green tea catechins possess potent antioxidative properties and protect against various oxidative diseases. Malignant stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (M-SHRSP) develop severe hypertension and spontaneous stroke at early ages. We previously reported that ingestion of green tea

Effects of delayed administration of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate, a green tea polyphenol on the changes in polyamine levels and neuronal damage after transient forebrain ischemia in gerbils.

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate has a potent antioxidant property and can reduce free radical-induced lipid peroxidation as a green tea polyphenol. In previous study, systemic administration of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate immediately after ischemia has been shown to inhibit the hippocampal neuronal

Protective effect of epigallocatechin gallate on endothelial disorders in atherosclerosis.

Healthy vascular endothelial cells regulate vascular tone and permeability, prevent vessel wall inflammation, enhance thromboresistance, and contribute to general vascular health. Furthermore, they perform important functions including the production of vasoactive substances such as nitric oxide

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate protects against cerebral ischemia-induced oxidative stress via Nrf2/ARE signaling.

Only registered users can translate articles

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) has recently been shown to exert neuroprotection in a variety of neurological diseases; however, its role and the underlying mechanisms in cerebral ischemic injury are not fully understood. This study was conducted to investigate the potential neuroprotective

The effect of epigallocatechin gallate on suppressing disease progression of ALS model mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is a constituent of green tea, and increasing evidence suggests that EGCG has neuroprotective effects on oxidative stress-injured neuronal cells, especially motoneurons. Although the neuroprotective effects of EGCG have been demonstrated in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's

An in vitro hyperbaric oxygen system for evaluation of free radical damage and protection by catechins on hemorheological parameters.

Only registered users can translate articles

Free radicals play a critical role in causing hemorheologic abnormality which is highly correlated with cardiovascular disease and stroke. In this study, we established an in vitro model to evaluate the influence of free radical attacks on hemorheological parameters. A well-sealed chamber with

670 nm laser light and EGCG complementarily reduce amyloid-β aggregates in human neuroblastoma cells: basis for treatment of Alzheimer's disease?

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study is to present the results of in vitro experiments with possible relevance in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). BACKGROUND Despite intensive research efforts, there is no treatment for AD. One root cause of AD is the extra- and intracellular deposition

Liver Injury Associated with Sporting Activities.

Exertional heat stroke most commonly develops following prolonged levels of aerobic activity in a warm or humid environment. Hypoperfusion of the vital organs along with activation of the inflammasome can lead to progressive and potentially fatal multiorgan failure including acute liver failure. In

Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Effects of (-)-Epicatechin and Other Polyphenols in Cancer, Inflammation, Diabetes, and Neurodegeneration.

Only registered users can translate articles

With recent insight into the mechanisms involved in diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, stroke, neurodegenerative diseases, and diabetes, more efficient modes of treatment are now being assessed. Traditional medicine including the use of natural products is widely practiced around the

Green Tea Extract Ameliorates Learning and Memory Deficits in Ischemic Rats via Its Active Component Polyphenol Epigallocatechin-3-gallate by Modulation of Oxidative Stress and Neuroinflammation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Ischemic stroke results in brain damage and behavioral deficits including memory impairment. Protective effects of green tea extract (GTex) and its major functional polyphenol (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on memory were examined in cerebral ischemic rats. GTex and EGCG were administered 1 hr

Control of Reactive Oxygen Species for the Prevention of Parkinson's Disease: The Possible Application of Flavonoids

Only registered users can translate articles

Oxidative stress reflects an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defense systems, and it can be associated with the pathogenesis and progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis, stroke, and Parkinson's disease (PD). The
