EGCG exerts anti-adipogenic effects in BMSCs. We also reported that increased apoptosis is a key feature of the anti-adipogenic effect of EGCG. Cell cycle analysis has shown that EGCG does not
affect cell growth at low concentrations. EGCG also significantly reduces intracellular lipid accumulation in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Our results revealed that EGCG enhances the production of intracellular ROS and RNS in BMSCs. Thus, these findings suggest a possible approach for maintaining the cell growth of BMSCs for clinical nutrition application in beef.
