1 Epigallocatechin-3-gallate sensitizes IFN-gamma-stimulated CD4+ T cells to apoptosis via alternative activation of STAT1. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
2 The increases in STAT1 activation and apoptosis induced by EGCG in IFN-gamma-activated CD4(+) T cells were almost completely abolished by a selective Src family kinase inhibitor, SU6656. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
3 In conclusion, the present study reports an alternative activation of STAT1 via Src by EGCG in IFN-gamma-activated CD4(+) T cells, which promotes the apoptosis of IFN-gamma-activated CD4(+) T cells and contributes to the improvement of T cell-mediated colitis. epigallocatechin gallate signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 Homo sapiens
