(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate Inhibits CC Chemokine Ligand 11 Production in Human Gingival Fibroblasts

Background: CC chemokine ligand 11 (CCL11) is related to Th2 cells migration via CC chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3). Th2 cells are involved in the etiology of periodontal disease. However, how the infiltration of Th2 cells is controlled in periodontally diseased tissues is unknown. (-)-Epigallocatechin...
