Description
(-) -Epicatechin gallate is a catechin isomer and potent antioxidant known to modulate membrane protein function. Its bilayer-modifying effects, studied using gramicidin A channels as probes, are linked to its gallate moiety, which can induce transient channel block. This compound is utilized in research on oxidative stress, membrane biophysics, and nutraceutical studies in both cellular and animal models.

Chemical Information

Epicatechin Gallate

(-)-epicatechin-3-O-gallate is a gallate ester obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of gallic acid with the (3R)-hydroxy group of epicatechin. A natural product found in Parapiptadenia rigida. It has a role as a metabolite, an EC 3.2.1.1 (alpha-amylase) inhibitor and an EC 3.2.1.20 (alpha-glucosidase) inhibitor. It is a catechin, a polyphenol and a gallate ester. It is functionally related to a gallic acid and a (-)-epicatechin.
