Estrogen receptor-α36 is involved in epigallocatechin-3-gallate induced growth inhibition of ER-negative breast cancer stem/progenitor cells
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a type of catechin extracted from green tea, which is reported to have anticancer effects. EGCG is also reported to inhibit the cancer stem/progenitor cells in several estrogen receptor (ER)-negative breast cancer cell lines, such as SUM-149, SUM-190 and MDA-MB-2...
