## Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that a green tea polyphenol, (β)βepigallocatechine gallate (EGCG), has a potent free radical scavenging and antioxidant effect. Glutamate leads to excitotoxicity and oxidative stress, which are important pathophysiologic responses to cerebral ischemia
## Abstract A number of biological activities have been ascribed to the major green tea polyphenol epigallocatechinβ3βgallate (EGCG) to explain its chemopreventive properties. Its antioxidant properties emerge as a potentially important mode of action. We have examined the effect of EGCG treatment
