Alternative Therapy: Maternal Yoga in Reduced Risk of Preeclampsia

Kyle J. Norton

Epidemiological studies suggested that yoga intervention may be used to assist standard care treatment in reduced risk of  pre-eclampsia onset during pregnancy.

Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a disorder of pregnancy characterized by abnormal high blood pressure and often a significant amount of protein in the urine.

Yoga, the ancient practical technique for harmonized external and internal body well beings, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been best known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

In the review literature published electronic database, PubMed, studies met the criteria and guideline selected included 54 citations in eight studies (10 reports) in the final analysis, after talking into account of other risk factors, researchers found that prenatal yoga displayed a significant effect in improvement of many aspects including pre-eclampsia in healthy women in 4 studies in compared to control.

Further differentiation also suggested that high-risk pregnant women with morbidity factors such as obesity or advanced age, participated in yoga lesson were found to induce significantly fewer cases of pregnancy-induced hypertension, gestational diabetes, and intrauterine growth restriction, as well as a decrease in perceived stress levels in compared to control

In deed, yoga class focused on poses, breathing exercises, meditation, visualization, guided imagery, and deep relaxation not only reduced psychological stress caused by previous pregnancy and various reasons in induction of nervous tension to precipitate hormone imbalance, particularly in keeping in check of Ang-(1-7), angiotensin I, angiotensin II and renin hormone which played a critical role in expression of high blood pressure in pregnancy but also improved blood circulation into the cervical region to provide necessary nutrients and oxygen for the fetus to growth normally.

Additionally, yoga lessons also brought back the rest with awareness of presence, while letting them go or solved them in a positive way.

Moreover, yoga breathing, meditation in reduced stress also normalized the heart rate which has a strong implication in improved blood pressure and enhanced daily energy for a happy pregnancy outcome.

Interestingly, the study to examine the effect of  stretching exercise in autonomic cardiac response, and the development of preeclampsia, conducted by the school of nursing at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill of total of 124 women randomized to either stretching (n=60) or walking (n=64), after taking into other co founders, found that yoga stretching may be used as a physiologic framework for possible beneficial effects in enhancing autonomic responses on reducing risks for preeclampsia as fewer cases of high blood pressure were observed in women participated in the yoga class in compared to control.

Promisingly, in a randomized clinical trial of the effects of the two types of physical exercises was conducted between November 2001 and July 2006 in Washtenaw County, Michigan with participants assigned to either the walking group (n = 41) or the stretching group (n = 38). walkers exercised an average of 36 (SD, 6) minutes at 18 weeks gestation, 34 (SD, 7) minutes at 28 weeks gestation, and 31 (SD, 12) minutes at the last week of the intervention, within target heart rate ranges 35% (SD, 32%) at 18 weeks gestation, 22% (SD, 25%) at 28 weeks gestation, and 17% (SD, 25%) at the last week of the intervention, researchers showed that at 20 weeks gestation and 4,848 (SE, 452) steps at 34 weeks gestation (p 0.05), the prevalence of preeclampsia risk of yoga group with stretched exercise was 2.6% in compared to 14.6%  among the walkers.

However, observation after taking into account of other con founders and including means of all gestation periods,  the incidence of gestational hypertension was 22 % for the walkers and 40% for the stretchers with no significant differences in birth outcomes of both groups.

The decreased incidence of preeclampsia in the yoga group was found to associate with increased antioxidant activity in reduced risk inflammatory expression in elevated risk high blood pressure caused by oxidative stress induced bylipid hydroperoxide production.

With all the information collected, Dr. Yeo S, the led researchers said " Regular stretching exercises may promote endogenous antioxidants among women at risk for preeclampsia."

The findings suggested that yoga intervention as an integrated form of stretched exercise may have a positive and profound effect in reduced onset of preeclampsia, particularly in women in group of high risk pregnancy.

Food Therapy: Eggplant In Reduced Risk of Acute Inflammation and Treatment of Chronic Inflammatory Diseases

Kyle J. Norton (Scholar, Master of Nutrients, All right reserved)

Eggplant may be used as a therapeutic and positive anti inflammatory functional food without alernating the immune activity in the acute phase of infection, some scientists opinionated.

Eggplant with deeply purple colcor, is a species of S. melongena, belongs to the family Solanaceae cultivated in southern and eastern Asia since prehistory, and native to India.

Inflammation is a natural expression by immune system in induction of while blood cells for protection our body  against infection caused by foreign invasion.

In the differentiation of water extract of Solanum melongena L. (Solanaceae) effect in induction of antioxidant, analgesic, hypolipidemic and antiallergic activity in mice induced by injection of trypsin or trans-cinnamoyl-LIGRLO-NH(2) (tc-NH(2)) into the hindpaw scientists found that oral administration of the extract at doses of 5, 10, and 100 mg/kg displayed a strong effect in inhibition of both paw edema and vascular permeability.

Further analysis also showed that the highest dose injection of 10 mg/kg expressed a greatest activity in compared to the others in significantly inhibited PAR2 agonist-induced myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in stimulated immune function activated pro inflammatory cytokines and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha expression to precipitate inflammation in response to the acute phase of infection.

After taking into account of other confounders, Dr. Umamageswari MS suggested that water extract of the S. melongena (SMWE) inhibits PAR2 agonist-induced mouse paw edema, through its anti inflammatory expression.

According to the investigated the inflammatory activities of aqueous extract of leaves of Solanum melongena Linn in arrageenan induced paw oedema, in compared to standard medicne aspirin, oral application of Solanum melongena L. in different doses of 100mg/kg, 200mg/kg, 400mg/kg at 1(st) h, 3(rd) h, and 5(th) after injection revealed a significant effect in reduced inflammation linearly induced by carrageenan toxicity in dose dependent manner.

Additional differentiation, also suggested that the doses of 200mg/kg and 400 mg/kg of aqueous extract of S. melongena L showed the percentage of inhibition of 42.62% which is less than the standard drug aspirin which showed 64.5% inhibition.

In free radical perspective, the investigation of 4 our new lignanamides, melongenamides A-D (1-4), together with six known ones (5-10) isolated from the roots of Solanum melongena L. also demonstrated a significant activity in inhibitions of inflammatory effect caused by free radical species nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages through their antioxidant effect.

Interestingly, the study also found out that not all compound extracted from the roots expressed the same levels of antioxidant properties in reduced inflammatory induced by ROS. In compared to other compounds, compound 1 exerted antioxidant effect without inhibited free radical nitric oxide production.

The findings suggested that eggplant may be used as function food in reduced risk of inflammation in acute infection and as a adjunct therapy in combination with standard treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Food Therapy: Lentils(Pulses) in Ameliorated Risk of Cardiovascular Disease

Kyle J. Norton

Lentils may have a substantial and positive effect in reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.

Lentil, a type of pulse of tiny legume that can be cooked quickly and rich in protein and fiber is a bushy annual plant of genus Lens the Fabaceaefamily, native to Middle East.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a group of disorders caused by heart dysfunction and abnormal blood vessels.

According to statistic from World Health Organization, approximately,17.7 million people died from CVDs in 2015, representing 31% of all deaths.

The evaluation of lectin activity in CVD reduction was found to facilitate various mechanisms through numbers of expression.

According to a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the effect of dietary pulse (beans, chickpeas, lentils and peas) intake on established therapeutic lipid targets for cardiovascular risk reduction, by reviewing literature published through Feb. 5, 2014, included RCTs of at least 3 weeks' duration that compared a diet emphasizing dietary pulse intake with an isocaloric diet, 26 studies met the criteria and guideline showed that a median dose of 130 g/d (about 1 serving daily) decreased significantly LDL cholelsesterol levels in compared to the control diets, without affecting the apolipoprotein B and non-HDL cholesterol levels.

Abnormal high levels of LDL cholelsesterol level is considered as one of major risk factor marker in the development of cardiovascular disease.

Further evaluation of the effect of dietary pulse fiber's low density lipoprotein implication of risk of CVD, indicated that antioxidant compound of bioactive polyphenolics inhibits the reactive oxygen species in induction oxidative stress in stimulated cholesterol accumulated in the large blood vessels in increased risk of heart disease through lipid per-oxidation.

Interestingly, the testing of low-GLoad foods effect in metabolic syndrome occurrence with 131 male Nile rats aged 3 weeks to 15 months randomly assigned to 15 dietary exposures of varied Glycemic Index indicated that lentil diets with low GLoads (102, 202) displayed a significant effect in reduced onset and treatment of metabolic syndrome in compared to other food with higher glycemic index.

More specifically, the benefit from lentils in reduced risk of metabolic syndrome exceeded dietary factors of combination of macronutrient composition + total fiber or dietary caloric density in the legume.

Additionally, the experiment also found that lentil diet even reverse the progression of metabolic syndrome in the tested Nile rats.

Metabolic syndrome is a set of conditions of increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels which are considered as risk factors of cardiovascular disease.

Dr. Havemeier S, the lead author in the differentiation of Dietary guidance for pulses: the challenge and opportunity to be part of both the vegetable and protein food groups, said, "The last two revisions of the Dietary Guidelines saw the transformation from the MyPyramid "meat and beans group" to the MyPlate "protein foods group," a nutrient name rather than a food source". and "The 2015 Dietary Guidelines also came with a new area: sustainable diets. Encouraging the consumption of sustainable food sources, like pulses, is imperative to ensuring a secure, healthy food supply for the U.S. population over time and for future generations".

Moreover, the study to explore the association of legume intake (beans, chickpeas, lentils and so on), as part of a low-glycemic index diet, with the risk of cardiovascular events in the Iranian middle- and old-aged people contacted every 2 years for possible occurrence of CVD events in 7 years of follow-up, after considering other con founders showed that in compared to intake of legumes in different tertiles, risk of CVD was lower by 34% in tested subject of old-aged people, according to the returned food frequency questionnaire.

However,  frequency of consuming legumes exerted less significant effect in CVD events in the middle-aged people.

The findings suggested that intake of lentils frequently may have a potential effect in reduced risk of  cardiovascular disease.

Alternative Therapy: Yoga, An Integrated Form of Exercise in Treatment of Behavioral Addiction

Kyle J. Norton 

Epidemiological studies strongly suggested that yoga as an integrated form of exercise may be used for treatment of behavioral addiction.

Yoga, the ancient practical technique for harmonized external and internal body well beings, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been best known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

According to the joint study lead by the University of Florida, yoga may be considered as an adjunct treatment in behavioral addiction through induce "dopamine homeostasis", or in simpler terms "normalcy".

Prevention of addictive diseases is a complex and systematic strategies including training of social skills, decision in-making skills, family intervention, etc. particularly, in making the treatment more effective.

Combination of physical exercise and yoga may be useful components of comprehensive programs, especially in treatment of patients in substance dependent patients and pathological gambles.

Yoga and other forms of treatment may regulate the resting state functional connectivity (rsfMRI), a method of functional brain imaging, used to evaluate regional interactions and restore this impaired cross talk between various brain regions (e.g. Nucleus accumbens, cingulate gyrus, hippocampus etc.)

Truly, physical exercise, a planned, organized, and repeated body movement and yoga practice not only promoted physical fitness but also alleviated the stress and anxiety in induction of impulsive behavior, thus relieving craving behavior, suppressing abstinence symptoms, through ameliorating hormone production in response to stress and activated implusive behavior, such as hormone cortisol, dopamine, ghrelin,....

Moreover, intensities of exercise study showed a two- to three fold longer time to the next cigarette,  reduced substantially cravings withdrawal symptoms and decreased heart rate reserve (HRR) (lasting 30-40 minutes) from 60-85% to as low as 24% HRR (lasting 15 minutes).

Dr. Taylor AH, the lead author in the study of "The acute effects of exercise on cigarette cravings, withdrawal symptoms, affect and smoking behaviour: a systematic review", said, "withdrawal symptoms and negative affect decreased rapidly during exercise and remained reduced for up to 50 minutes after exercise. Effect sizes for seven studies that assessed "strength of desire to smoke" showed a mean reduction, 10 minutes after exercise, of 1.1".

Some researchers also suggested that yoga intervention directly and indirectly drive the attention and energy to the root of suffering by restoring the balances of the mind and body, bringing back the presence and dealing how to control impulsive behaviors in positive way through breathing and body control.

Indeed, in compared to yoga intervention, competitive professional sport rather increased the number of risk factors for substance-related problems.

More interestingly, in the study of 17 clients from the Problem Gambling Institute of Ontario at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (88% male) to evaluate the feasibility of teaching problem gamblers about mindfulness meditation as part of regular treatment for problem gambling by 8-week mindfulness group program, researchers found that in the comparison of the first group session and after the final group session, yoga mindfulness increase the Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) scores from a pre-test score of 3.65 (SD = 1.01) to a post-test score of 4.40 (SD = 0.78) and

participants also highlighted a number of improvements being more in control, relaxed and able to stay in the now.

In fact, yoga mindfulness participated demonstrated a high levels of positive instinctive or intuitive feeling with improvement of the ability to control emotion and acted, according to the values while experiencing negative emotions, by adapting to the change of environment.

Additionally, yoga attendees also expressed to gain a management skill in controlled poor emotion regulation which may lead to impulse behavior.

Participants with difficulty in appropriate management of emotions were found to associate with a variety of psychiatric illnesses, including depression and anxiety

Further analysis of yoga mindfulness effectiveness, researchers opinionated, "the suitability of mindfulness as an intervention as part of a problem gambling treatment service. However, the study did not evaluate whether mindfulness improved the clients’ ability to resist relapse".

Taking altogether, yoga may be considered as a secondary and integrated form of treatment used combined with standard therapy in treatment of behavioral addiction.

Food Therapy: The Hetapoprotective Activities of Eggplant and its Bioactive Total Phenolics and Flavonoids

Kyle J. Norton (Scholar, Master of Nutrients, All right reserved)

Eggplant, bioactive phytochemicals were found to process hetapoprotective activity against formation of liver diseases, some scientists suggested.

Eggplant with deeply purple color, is a species of S. melongena, belongs to the family Solanaceae, native to India.

Liver diseases are groups of liver disorders, including cirrhosis, or scarring of the liver. inflammation (hepatitis) from infectious (hepatitis B, hepatitis C) or non-infectious causes (chemical or autoimmune hepatitis) tumors and liver cancer.

According to statistic, among population of aged 45–64 years, the death rates of chronic liver disease and cirrhosis in the United States increased by 31% (from 20.1 per 100,000 to 26.4) from 2000 to 2015.

Eggplant, bioactive total phenolic and flavonoid content in reduced risk and treatment of liver diseases were found to associate to numbers of implication through various mechanisms.

According to the evaluation of 25 male Wistar rats randomly divided into five groups, and adapted for 7 days before the experimental study, including negative and positive groups fed with aquadest, Group III−V given Solanum melongena fruit infusion containing 1.125 grams, 2.25 grams and 4.5 grams orally for 9 days, respectively, suggested that at day 11 after the 9th day injection of  8 mL/kgBW of 10% CCl4 in paraffin carried out to all rats, except for the negative group,

treatment of Solanum melongena fruit infusion groups display a significant improvement of reduced hepatocyte necrosis in compared to positive group.

Surprisingly, under the observation of Mann-Whitney test, Solanum melongena fruit infusion did not express a linear dependent to the doses injection through the comparison to the effect in negative group, group III, and group V (p<0.05), as well as insignificant difference was found between the positive group and group IV (p>0.05).

Liver examination also suggested that liver cells death were found more common in the positive group of 37.26% in compared to negative group with the fewest necrotic hepatocyte of 1.27%.

In reactive oxygen species perspective, application of CCl4 stimulated by cytochrome p450 with function involved toxic substances metabolism to initiate forming of free radicals trichloromethyl radical (CCl3 -) in binding with lipid to induce lipid peroxidation in facilitated liver tissue damage.

Moreover, in reaction with oxygen in the liver tissue, CCl4 also precipitated the production of trichloromethylperoxy radical (CCl3 O2 -) to cause necrotic hepatocyte in the periportal space of the liver.

Additional analysis also discovered that Solanum melongena fruit infusion demonstrated a significant antioxidant activities in decreased and prevented the formation of free radical oxidation, through the expression of flavonoids in inhibition of CCl3 in reaction with oxygen to induce covalent bonds with fat.

After taking into account of other con founders, Dr. Nabhan Komara. the lead author said, "Solanum melongena fruit infusion has hepatoprotective effects against acute hepatitis in rat model histopathologically".

Interestingly, in the evaluated total phenolic and flavonoid antioxidant activity and hepatoprotection against cytotoxicity of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) in human hepatoma cell lines HepG2, scientists showed that pretreatment of HepG2 cells with 50 and 100 μg/mL of chemical compounds significantly increased expressions of t-BuOOH-exposed HepG2 cells  to induced tumor cell apoptosis by 14.49 ± 1.14% to 44.95 ± 2.72%. without harming to the nearby healthy cells.

According to the experiment, application of total phenolic and flavonoid not only increased antioxidant activities in protect liver cell against damage caused by over facilitation of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) in induction of ROS but also exhibited free radical cytotoxic effect to initiated cell death in HepG2 cell lines. 

Further more, the hepatoprotective activities on t-BuOOH-induced toxicity was attributed to total phenolic/flavonoid content at both 50 and 100 lg/mL and antioxidant activities at both 50 lg/mL and 100 lg/mL observed by two most common radical scavenging assays, namely, 2,2′-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical.

Tert-Butyl hydroperoxide (tBuOOH) is an organic compound used widely as a peroxide in a variety of oxidation processes.

Taken together, there is no doubt that eggplant and its btoactive total phenolic and flavonoid may have therapeutic effect in protected liver against infectious and non infectious agents and irregular growth causes of benign and malignant cancers through over expression of antioxidant activities in protected healthy cells and induction of ROS cytotoxicity to tumor cells.

Food Therapy: Green Tea Bioactive Polyphenols in Inhibited β-amyloid Accumulation in Neuro Degeneration

Kyle J. Norton 

Green tea may have a potential and therapeutic effect in protected neurons of the brain against deposit of β-amyloid in initiated neuro degenerative diseases, some researchers postulated.

β-amyloid are plaques found in the brains of Alzheimer patients derived from the amyloid precursor protein (APP) with function in binding to other proteins on the surface of cells.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

The differentiation of green tea activities in risk of plagues deposit in certain parts of the brain to induce development and neuropathogenesis of dementia was found to associate to numbers of implication through several mechanisms.

In the study to clarify the effect of green tea Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in inhibited activities of nitrosative as well as oxidative stress in induction of Abeta-cause of damages in neurons and glial cells surround neurons, researchers at the Daegu Haany University found that application of the phytophenols exerts a significant interference in ameliorated the elevation of Abeta-induced by oxidative and/or nitrosative to facilitate cell death through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Further analysis found that green tea bioactive compound reduced activities of Abeta injection in induction of nitrosative stress on BV2 cells caused by increased expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in production of nitric oxide (NO) and peroxynitrite, in elevated cytotoxicity to precipitate apoptosis, though inhibited reactive nitrogen species act together with reactive oxygen species to establish chain reaction in damage to BV2 cells.

In cellular metabolism, pretreatment of green tea EGCG also demonstrated a strong antioxidant properties in induction of neuroprotective effect by fortified cellular GSH over expression through elevated mRNA expression of galuatehe eva-glutamylcysteine ligase (GCL) with functions involved production of cellular antioxidant glutathione (GSH).

Additionally, the examine the inhibitory effect of l-theanine, a component of green tea (Camellia sinensis), on Abeta(1-42) with oral treatment of l-theanine (2 and 4 mg/kg) for 5 weeks in the drinking water of mice, followed by injection of Abeta(1-42) (2 microg/mouse, icv), suggested that green tea bioactive l-theanine component exerts a significantly attenuated Abeta(1-42) levels induced memory impairment by precipitated neuronal cell death in the cortex and hippocampus of the brain.

Moreover, l-theanine  also inhibited Abeta(1-42)-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and activity of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) in initiated cellular apoptosis caused by reactive nitrogen species hyper activities.

 Further more, the bioactive  l-theanine also significantly reduced oxidative protein and lipid damage and elevated glutathione levels in the brain, thus reducing macromolecular oxidative damage in improved memory.

Additional study of green tea effect in attenuated accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide plaques is a major pathogenic event in Alzheimer's disease (AD) opinionated that in the wild type amyloid precursor protein (APP) transfected (N2a/APP695) cell line, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a highly active catechin found in green tea, significantly reinforce the activity of nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), a regulator of adipocyte differentiation by promoting its mRNA and protein expressions in N2a/APP695 cells, thus attenuated Aβ generation in N2a/APP695 cells in induction of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Intriguingly, the efficacy of Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in inhibited β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide plaques accumulation was found to be attributed by its antioxidant activity in decreased the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins (Bax, caspase-3) activated by Aβ insults,  the activity of the anti-inflammatory agent NF-κB triggered by β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide and inhibited the oxidative stress by decreasing the levels of ROS and MDA and increased the expression of antioxidant  enzyme MnSOD.

These results suggest that EGCG may have preventive and/or therapeutic potential to prevent accumulated β-amyloid in initiated neuro degenerative patients by increasing cellular antioxidant defense capacity in inhibited Abeta-mediated oxidative and/or nitrosative stress to induce cell death. Intake of green tea extract should be taken with great care, as overdoses have been reported to cause  liver toxicity.

Herbal Therapy: Green Tea and Its' Polyphenols (GTPs) in Attenuated Risk, Progression and Treatment of Skin Cancer

Green tea may have a strong and positive effect in reduced risk and treatment of skin cancer, some scientists suggested.

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

Skin cancer is medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth in the issues of skin. At the later stage, the cancerous cell may travel a distance away to invade other healthy tissues and organs.

According to statistic, approximately, 87,110 new cases of invasive melanoma are diagnosed in the U.S every years

The evaluation of green tea effect in overexposure to environmental solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation (290-400 nm)  which has been found to increase risk of the development of melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers in mice model showed that oral administration of  green tea pylophenols (GTPs) in drinking water or the topical application of EGCG prevents UVB-induced skin tumor development in tested subjects.

Particularly, (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the major and most photoprotective polyphenolic component of green tea also exhibited a protective activity against UV in induction of skin cancer, through induction of immunoregulatory cytokine interleukin (IL) 12 in differentiation of naive T cells into Th1 cells and acted as T cell-stimulating factor in stimulate the growth and function of T cells.

Moreover, interleukin (IL) 12 also demonstrated a significant effect as an antagonist against immunosuppression induced by solar/ultraviolet (UV) radiation by restoring immune responses and also stimulating DNA repair. 

Further analysis also indicated that green tea (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) also inhibited UV in induction of skin tumors; angiogenetic effect in stimulated production of new blood vessels to

provide nutrients and oxygen for cancer cells proliferation and survivals and initiated cytotoxic T lymphocyte cells in induced cancer and infectious and damage cells apoptosis.

Interestingly, additional study of green tea polyphenols (GTPs) in prevention of UVB irradiated  (80 mJ/cm(2)) 3 times each week for 24 wk in induced skin cancer in mice divided in to group consumed water and group fed with water containing 2 g/L GTPs, showed that group treated with GTPs displayed a significant reduced UVB-induced tumor incidence  by 35%, tumor multiplicity by 63%, and tumor growth by 55% in compared to non treatment group.

Group treated with GTPs+UVB also demonstrated a reduced expression of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2 and MMP-9, which are activator associated with progression from benign to advanced cancer and enhanced expression of specific endogenous tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), tissues inhibitor of MMP in skin tumors in compared to mice treated with UVB alone.

Further more, GTPs+UVB group also reduced expressions of CD31 and vascular endothelial growth factor, in activated development of new blood vessel to nourish skin tumor cells proliferation and site expansion and inhibited expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen, a key factor in DNA replication and cell cycle regulation in skin cancer in compared to UVB group.

More importantly, mice treated with  GTPs+UVB group also showed  more cytotoxic CD8(+) T cells in the tumors  in compared to  UVB group by exhibited greater activation of caspase-3 epression in induced apoptosis of the tumor cells.

The information findings suggested a potential and therapeutic effect of green tea and its bioactive polyphenols (GTPs) in attenuated risk, progression and treatment of melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers.
