Protective Effects of Dietary Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate in Weaned Pigs Exposed to Oxidative Stress
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a major catechin in green tea, possesses antioxidant and immunomodulatory properties. We hypothesized that dietary EGCG supplementation before oxidative challenge would attenuate Diquat-induced redox disturbance and help maintain intestinal epithelial integrity and immune-related home...
