Enterococcus faecasslis (E. faecalis) is a resident bacterium in the host. The increase in internal stress like low pH may affect the biological effects of E. faecalis. The prebiotic-like function of tea polyphenols can enhance the beneficial effects of its tolerance to environmental stress. In this study, RNA-sequence analysis was used to explore the protective effect of green tea polyphenols (GTP) on E. faecalis under low pH stress. A total of 28 genes were found to be responsive to GTP under low pH stress, including 16 up-regulated and 12 down-regulated. GTP intervention can partly relieve some undesired negative influences, such as the down-regulation of the base excision repair gene and amino acid transport and metabolism gene. The significantly changes were associated with selenocompound metabolism and aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis after the intervention of GTP. The present study provided new insights into the growth and continuous adaptation of E. faecalis under stress.

Theaflavins, oxidation product of tea polyphenols, have demonstrated significant inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase, which is beneficial in alleviating hyperglycemia. This study found that the inhibition of four monomers of theaflavins on α-glucosidase was related to the presence of the galloyl moiety (GM), with IC values ranging from TFDG (0.26 mg/mL) < TF3'G (0.

To mitigate the risk associated with water-soluble fluoride in tea and to have less influence on the contents of tea infusion, a highly selective lanthanum modified silk fibroin (SF) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite film (SF/PVA-La) was prepared to remove fluoride from brick tea infusion. Notably, SF/PVA-La could remove about 48 % of the fluoride from in brick tea infusion within 30 min. Importantly, the reduction in total tea polyphenols in brick tea did not exceed 10 %, and the reduction in caffeine was only 0.

Green tea (Camellia sinensis) is a commonly consumed beverage or dietary supplement. As a natural product with a myriad of proposed health benefits, patients are likely to consume green tea while taking their medications unaware of its potential to interact with drugs and influence drug efficacy and safety. Catechins are the abundant polyphenolic compounds in green tea (e.

The research is aimed at exploring the potential of marigold petal tea (MPT), rich in polyphenol contents, against oxidative stress and obesity in a rat model following a high-fat-sugar diet (HFSD). The MPT was prepared through the customary method of decoction and was subjected to analysis for its polyphenol composition using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Two specific doses of MPT, namely, 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight (BW), were chosen for the study-referred to as MPT-250 and MPT-500, respectively.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a cardiovascular disease with potentially fatal consequences, yet effective therapies to prevent its progression remain unavailable. Oxidative stress is associated with AAA development. Carbon dots have reactive oxygen species-scavenging activity, while green tea extract exhibits robust antioxidant properties.
