Abstract

We have previously reported that green tea catechins(GTC) displayed anti-thrombotic activity, and that this might be due to anti-platelet rather than anti-coagulation effects. In the present study, we have compared the anti-platelet activity and mechanism of epigallocatechin gallate(EGCG) and epigaliocatechin(EGC), which are two major components of GTC. (omitted)
