Green tea and its polyphenolic catechins: medicinal uses in cancer and noncancer applications.

TL;DR: Neither caffeinated nor decaffeinated coffees were associated with ovarian cancer risk; also, there was no association of total caffeine with risk using a combined index that summed intake from coffee, tea, and carbonated soft drinks.

TL;DR: 3% formulation of green tea extract was ideal in all aspects and can be experienced in skin disorders like acne to further investigate its effects in unhealthy volunteers.

TL;DR: A facile and green route for the synthesis of copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) has been achieved using green tea extract as a reducing, capping and stabilizing agent.

TL;DR: In conclusion, EGCG fortification is a feasible method to decrease acrylamide formation in baked bread.

TL;DR: The relative antioxidant activities, against radicals generated in the aqueous phase, of a range of plant-derived polyphenolic flavonoids, constituents of fruit, vegetables, tea and wine, have been assessed and compounds such as quercetin and cyanidin have antioxidant potentials four times that of Trolox, the vitamin E analogue.

TL;DR: In addition to the normal complement of plant cell enzymes, tea leaf contains an active polyphenol oxidase which catalyzes the aerobic oxidation of the catechins when the leaf cell structure is disrupted during black tea manufacture as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The effects of tea and green tea catechins on biomarker of oxidative stress, especially oxidative DNA damage, appear very promising in animal models, but data on biomarkers of in vivo oxidative stress in humans are limited.

TL;DR: Recent advances in understanding the etiology and pathogenesis of PD are reviewed in the hope of developing a more effective therapy that will slow or halt the natural progression of PD.
