In cell-culture systems that employ human PCa cells DU145 (androgen insensitive) and LNCaP (androgen sensitive), we found that the major polyphenolic constituent (−)−epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) of green tea induces 1) apoptosis, 2) cell-growth inhibition, and 3) cyclin kinase ...

Green tea leaves are rich in flavonoids called catechins (pronounced “KAH-tuh-kins”). This polyphenol (plant chemical) in tea leaves acts as an antioxidant. Green tea is particularly high in epigallocatechin-3 gallate (EGCG), a ca...
Matcha is an excellent way to nurse a hangover. Regular consumption of alcohol takes a toll on a man's body. Alcohol increases a man's risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, esophagus, liver, colon, and prostate cancer. Luckily, drinking green tea has been shown to help soothe inflammation...
Green tea polyphenols, methylation, catechol-O-methyltransferaseEpidemiologic, preclinical, and clinical trials suggest that green tea (GT) consumption may prevent prostate cancer via the action of green tea polyphenols including (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). In order to study the metabolism ...
green tea interacts with an enzyme on the surface of many types of cancer cells including breast, prostate, colon and neuroblastoma. This enzyme, called quinol oxidase, or NOX, helps carry out several functions on the cell surface and is required for growth in both normal and cancerous cells...
The incidence of prostate cancer is much lower in Asian than Western populations. Given that environmental factors such as dietary habits may play a major role in the causation of prostate cancer and the high consumption of green tea in Asian populations, this low incidence may be partly due to...
In parallel to tumor growth inhibition, mice that received a combination of green tea and celecoxib registered a greater decrease in prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels compared to that in celecoxib alone or green tea alone treated animals. PSA is a protein produced by the cells of the prost...

The effects of green tea on lung and prostate cancer remain unclear. However, the beverage does seem to prevent the onset of skin cancer. There is also some evidence to suggest that it can inhibit the growth of stomach cancer cells.
