Green Tea Polyphenols Alleviate Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Apoptosis in Bovine Mammary Epithelial Cells by Activating ERK1/2-NFE2L2-HMOX1 Pathways.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress (OS) is one of the main limiting factors affecting the length of lactation and milk quality in dairy cows. For high-producing dairy cows, the OS of mammary glands is a serious problem. Green tea polyphenols (GTP), found mainly in tea, are a combination of many phenols. GTP have a good effect on antioxidation, inflammation resistance, obesity, fat cell metabolism improvement, and lowering of blood lipid. Therefore, we studied the role of GTP on OS in dairy cows and further investigated whether GTP alleviates oxidative damage of bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs) induced by hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and its underlying molecular mechanism. In this study, 500 μM of H₂O₂ for 12 h incubation was chosen as the condition of the OS mo
