Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) suppresses lipopolysaccharide‐induced inflammatory bone resorption, and protects against alveolar bone loss in mice

Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a major polyphenol in green tea, possesses antioxidant properties and regulates various cell functions. Here, we examined the function of EGCG in inflammatory bone resorption. In calvarial organ cultures, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced bone resorption was clearly s...
