摘要
Antioxidative effects of the main polyphenolic components extracted from green tea leaves, i.e. (-)-epicatechin (EC), (-)-epigallocatechin (EGC), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG), (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and gallic acid (GA), against free radical initiated peroxidation of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) were studied. The peroxidation was initiated either thermally by a water-soluble initiator 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride) (AAPH), or photochemically by a triplet sensitizer benzophenone (BP). The reaction kinetics was monitored by the uptake of oxygen and the depletion of alpha-tocopherol (TOH) presented in the native LDL. Kinetic analysis of the antioxidation process demonstrates that these green tea polyphenols are effective antioxidants against both AAPH-initiated and BP-photosensitized LDL peroxidation. The antioxidative action of the green tea polyphenols includes trapping the initiating and/or propagating peroxyl radicals with the activity sequence EC > EGCG > ECG > EGC > GA for the AAPH initiated peroxidation, and reducing the alpha-tocopheroxyl radical to regenerate alpha-tocopherol with the activity sequence of ECG > EC > EGCG > EGC > GA and ECG > EGCG > GA > EC > EGC for the AAPH-initiated and BP-photosensitized peroxidations respectively.
