Tea Polyphenols Regulate Key Mediators on Inflammatory Cardiovascular Diseases

<table><i>Zymography of myocardial ischemia.</i> Gelatin zymography showed that increased gelatinase (MMP-2 and MMP-9) activity was observed in hearts in the non-treated ischemia group.  However, this enhanced gelatinase activity was decreased by catechin administration (20 mg/kg/day, THEA-FLAN 90S).</table>
