Figure 6From: Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) inhibits the migratory behavior of tumor bronchial epithelial cellsmRNA expression. mRNA expression for MMP2, MMP9, MT1-MMP and u-PA by BZR cells incubated with increasing concentrations of EGCG. A progressive inhibition of the mRNA level for MMP2 and no changes in MT1-MMP and u-PA mRNA level were observed in parallel with the increase of EGCG concentration. MMP9 expression was not detectable.Back to article page
