Application

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate has been used:
  • as an anti-tumor agent on murine TRAMP metastatic prostate cell line by cell proliferation assay, apoptosis detection and modified Boyden-chamber assay
  • induces cell death in acute myeloid leukaemia through death associated protein kinase-2 pathway analyzed through cell viability, cell cycle and apoptosis assay
  • as an inhibitor of osteoclast differentiation in murine preosteoclast cell line RAW264.7
  • to promote myogenic differentiation

Biochem/physiol Actions

(-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), an antioxidant polyphenol flavonoid exerts anti-tumor properties by inhibiting telomerase and DNA methyltransferase activity. EGCG inhibits the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9 and reduces the invasiveness. EGCG blocks the activation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2). EGCG increases bone mineral density and reduces bone resorption. EGCG inhibits osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting receptor activator of nuclear factor κ-B ligand (RANKL) induced nuclear factor κ B (NF-κB) transcriptional activity. EGCG reduces skeletal muscle atrophy. EGCG has anti-aging property and increases myogenic differentiation. EGCG inhibits fatty acid synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase activity.

General description

(−)-Epigallocatechin gallate from green tea is the prime bioactive component, accounting for 50-80% of the total catechin content. It comprises a chemical structure similar to that of epicatechin gallate (ECG), an ester of gallic acid and epigallocatechin.

  1. How does the storage temperature relate to shipping conditions?

    The storage conditions that a Sigma-Aldrich catalog and label recommend for products are deliberately conservative. For many products, long-term storage at low temperatures will increase the time during which they are expected to remain in specification and therefore are labeled accordingly. Where short-term storage, shipping time frame, or exposure to conditions other than those recommended for long-term storage will not affect product quality, Sigma-Aldrich will ship at ambient temperature. The products sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than their recommended long-term storage are shipped on wet or dry ice. Ambient temperature shipping helps to control shipping costs for our customers. At any time, our customers can request wet- or dry-ice shipment, but the special handling is at customer expense if our product history indicates that the product is stable for regular shipment. See Shipping and Storage for more information.

  2. Which document(s) contains shelf-life or expiration date information for a given product?

    If available for a given product, the recommended re-test date or the expiration date can be found on the Certificate of Analysis.

  3. How do I get lot-specific information or a Certificate of Analysis?

    The lot specific COA document can be found by entering the lot number above under the "Documents" section.

  4. How do I find price and availability?

    There are several ways to find pricing and availability for our products. Once you log onto our website, you will find the price and availability displayed on the product detail page. You can contact any of our Customer Sales and Service offices to receive a quote.  USA customers:  1-800-325-3010 or view local office numbers.

  5. What is the Department of Transportation shipping information for this product?

    Transportation information can be found in Section 14 of the product's (M)SDS.To access the shipping information for this material, use the link on the product detail page for the product. 

  6. Is (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (Product No. E4143) sterile and tested for endotoxins?

    Product No. E4143 ((-)-Epigallocatechin gallate) is not prepared under sterile conditions and has not been tested for endotoxins.

  7. Is (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (Product No. E4143) for human use

    No. Product No. E4143 ((-)-Epigallocatechin gallate) is for laboratory research use only, not for human use.

  8. What is the solubility of (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (E4143)?

    We have tested the solubility of (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate at 5 mg/mL in water.

  9. What is the solution stability of (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (E4143)?

    A solution of (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate in water at a concentration of 0.3 mg/mL was found to have significantly decreased in purity (from 99.6% to 81.7%) after 2.5 hours at room temperature. A similar solution of (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate in water at a concentration of 0.3 mg/mL was found to have decreased in purity only slightly (from 99.5% to 99.3%) after 2.0 hours at 4°C.

  10. Can (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate be determined in plasma and urine?

    The determination of (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate in plasma and urine by HPLC has been reported in Cancer Epidemiol. Biomark. Prev., 4, 393 (1995).
