Remark : Type of experiment: human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, ZR75, T47D Results: Green tea increased the inhibitory effect of tamoxifen on the proliferation of the ER (estrogen receptor)-pos. MCF-7, 2R75, T47D human breast cancer cells in vitro. This combination regimen was also more potent than either agent alone at increasing cell apoptosis.

Remark : Type of experiment: mouse xenograft model Results: Mice treated with both green tea and tamoxifen had the smallest MCF-7 xenograft tumor size, and the highest levels of apoptosis in tumor tissue, as compared with either agent administered alone. moreover, the suppression of angiogenesis in vivo correlated with larger areas of necrosis and lower tumor blood vessel density in treated xenografts. The combination of green tea and tamoxifen significantly reduced the levels of estrogen receptor (ER)-alpha, in comparison to either agent alone.

[2] COMBINED INHIBITORY EFFECTS OF GREEN TEA POLYPHENOLS AND SELECTIVE CYCLOOXYGENASE-2 INHIBITORS ON THE GROWTH OF HUMAN PROSTATE CANCER CELLS BOTH IN VITRO AND IN VIVO.
ADHAMI VM,MALIK A,ZAMAN N,ET AL.
CLIN CANCER RES 2007 Vol.13(5),1611-9  354285 [Abstract]

Part Used : -
Activity : APOPTOSIS INDUCTION
Solvent/Active Compound : (-)epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG)
Type of experiment : in vitro

Type of interaction : P.Kinetics & P.Dynamics
Interaction with drug : NS-398
Dose/Conc.(drug) : 10 micromolar/L
Result : Positive
Remark : Type of experiment: human prostate cancer cells LNCaP, PC-3, and CWR22Rn1 Results: Combination of EGCG and NS-398 resulted in enhanced (a) cell growth inhibition; (b) apoptosis induction; (c) expression of Bax, pro-caspase-6, and pro-caspase-9, and poly (ADP) ribose polymerase cleavage; (d) inhibition of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor g; and (e) inhibition of nuclear factor-kB compared with the additive effects of the two agents alone, suggesting a possible synergism.
