Radioprotective effects of (-)-epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate (green-tea tannin) in mice.

S Uchida1, M Ozaki, K Suzuki, M Shikita.   

Abstract

Long-term administration of (-)-epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate (EGCG) to mice through drinking water prevented radiation-induced increase of lipid peroxides in liver and significantly prolonged life span after lethal whole-body X-irradiation. The result indicates validity of this green-tea component as an orally active radio-protector of very low toxicity.
