Abstrakt: Cancer cell migration is related to malignancy and patient prognosis. We previously reported that intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) promoted cancer cellular migration and invasion and that an antioxidant enzyme could help to attenuate the malignancy. Catechin is known as an antioxidant, and we have developed a catechin analog, planar catechin, which showed an antioxidant activity significantly stronger than that of the parent (+)-catechin. In this study, we examined the effects of the planar catechin on the migration of gastric normal and cancer cells. A scratched assay showed that the planar catechin suppressed the cellular migration rates in both normal and cancer cells, while the prevention levels in cancer cells were remarkable compared to the normal cells. These results suggest that the planar catechin with the enhanced antioxidant activity effectively scavenged the ROS overexpressed in the cancer cells and inhibited cancer cellular activities, including migration.
