    L-Epicatechin Usage And Synthesis
    Description (−)-Epicatechin is a polyketide synthase-derived polyphenol flavonoid that has been found in T. cacao and has diverse biological activities. It scavenges DPPH radicals in a cell-free assay when used at a concentration of 5 μM. (−)-Epicatechin inhibits COX-1 (IC50 = 3.2 μM). It acts synergistically with epigallocatechin gallate to induce apoptosis in, and reduce the proliferation of, PC-9 lung cancer cells when used at a concentration of 200 μM. (−)-Epicatechin (80 mg/kg) reduces LPS-induced increases in plasma creatinine and urea levels in a rat model of renal inflammation.
    Chemical Properties white to light yellow crystal powde
    Uses Potent antioxidant and antineoplastic agent.
    Uses An antioxidant and natural product from green tea
    Uses Catechin is a polyphenolic flavonoid that has been isolated from a variety of natural sources including tea leaves, grape seeds, and the wood and bark of trees such as acacia and mahogany. Catechin is a more potent antioxidant than ascorbate or α-tocopherol in certain in vitro lipid peroxidation assays. ()-Epicatechin is a 2R,3R stereoisomer of catechin. Like catechin, ()-epicatechin is a powerful antioxidant. It inhibits cyclooxygenase 1 (IC50 = 3.2 μM). Also, at 100 μM, ()-epicatechin induces apoptosis in human adenocarcinoma PC-9 cells and stimulates the inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-α release from BALB-c/3T3 cells treated with epigallocatechin gallate.
    Definition ChEBI: A catechin with (2R,3R)-configuration.
    General Description ()-Epicatechin (EC) belongs to the group of flavanols and is abundantly present in cacao and cacao products. The chemical structure of EC includes an oxygenated heterocycle with a 4-hydroxyl group linked with two aromatic rings.
    Biochem/physiol Actions This antioxidant is found in chocolate. (-)-Epicatechin is linked with cardiovascular effects. It is considered as a dependable standard due to its availability in cacao seeds and cocoa products. The halogenating activity of myeloperoxidase can be restored by (-)-epicatechin.

    ECHEMI Editorial Reference
    (-)-Epicatechin inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) with an IC50 of 3.2 μM. (-)-Epicatechin inhibits the IL-1β-induced expression of iNOS by blocking the nuclear localization of the p65 subunit of NF-κB.
