Epigallocatechin gallate hinders human hepatoma and colon cancer sphere formation
This 2016 study evaluates the inhibitory effects of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a green tea polyphenol, on cancer stem-like cell (CSC) populations derived from human hepatoma and colon cancer cell lines. CSCs were enriched via sphere formation under nonadherent, serum-free conditions and exhibited higher expression of stemness markers, Nek2, and ATP-binding
