Green tea extract (GTE) exerts antioxidative activities in ocular tissues of rats, but high levels of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) can induce oxidative stress. In this study, pharmacokinetics, diurnal variation of oxidative status, antioxidati

ABCA4 gene sequence alterations cause Stargardt’s disease (STGD) and may cause some age-related macular degeneration (AMD). We sought to shed light on these associations among Hong Kong Chinese by genotyping 140 AMD, 18 STGD and 95 normal control s

Catechins, active constituents of green tea, are well-known antioxidative natural products. It was proposed that green tea extract (GTE) consumption could benefit the eye, and the pharmacokinetics of catechins and oxidation status in rat eye were inv
