"Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), which is the major constituent of green tea, sequestered the p65 subunit of transcription factor nuclear factor-κB in the cytoplasm and inhibited transcriptional activity of the nuclear factor-κB-driven promoter in toll-like receptor-mediated activation, resulting in reduction of inflammatory cytokine production."

"However, compared to the LPS group, pretreatment with 50 μM EGCG markedly reduced the upregulation of all these genes to levels similar to those of the control group.The binding activity of NF-κB p65 to the IL1B and TNFA promoters was determined using a ChIP–qPCR assay, as shown in Figure 4B."

"On the other hand, in future experiments, we could select different animals to induce periodontitis, such as rabbits, to simulate the complex response of the human host to microbial challenge and treatment.In conclusion, this study demonstrated that EGCG (200 mg/kg) inhibited oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in a rat periodontitis model by modulating the Nrf2/HO-1/NLRP3/NF-κB p65 signaling pathway, thereby decreasing alveolar bone loss."
