“Pretreatment or co-treatment of human PBMC or murine lymphnode cells with EGCG significantly reduced SEB-induced proliferation and IL-2 , IFNgamma, and TNFalpha production.”
“In the present study, we found that (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG ) significantly up-regulated the mRNA expression of the Th1/Th2 cytokines including IL-2 , IFN-gamma, IL-5 and IL-13 in Jurkat T cells.”
