“…The release of various inflammatory mediators further promote the proliferation of glomerular mesangial cells, increase endothelial cell permeability, stimulate the production of white blood cells, and promote the release of superoxide and proteolytic enzymes (34,35). These changes further deteriorate renal function and aggravate the elevation of PTH (36).…”

“…In a human study, Shimada et al found that intake of Oolong tea (EGCG content, 45.4 mg/d) for 4 weeks increased plasma adiponectin levels and decreased plasma total cholesterol in Japanese patients with coronary artery disease. 19) Combining this report with our result, it is most likely that EGCG intake improves lipid homeostasis by enhancing plasma adiponectin levels in insulin secretion-impaired non-obese animal models, and in non-obese type 2 diabetic patients as well. It is still unknown whether the elevation of plasma adiponectin levels under EGCG supplementation is involved in the reduction of plasma triacylglycerol levels.…”

“…Oolong tea is a traditional Chinese tea and has recently been reported to have physiological functions such effects on atherogenic, 4) cancer, 5) obesity 6) and antioxidant actions. 7) We paid attention in this study to melanogenesis as one of the new physiological functions of oolong tea and investigated the effects of oolong tea on melanogenesis by using mushroom tyrosinase in a cell-free system, cultured B16 melanoma cells and guinea pigs irradiated by UVB in vivo.…”

“…2) Oolong tea is a traditional Chinese tea and known to contain oolong tea-specific polyphenols (oolong tea polymerized polyphenols, OTPP) which are generated in a partially fermented process and are not contained in green tea and black tea. 3) Various studies about the physiological function of oolong tea have shown its effects on atherogenic, 4) cancer, 5) obesity 6) and antioxidant actions. 7) However, the physiological functions of oolong tea on melanogenesis have remained unknown.…”
