Conclusion<br />
• EGCG from green tea has the ability to<br />
enhance the repair <strong>of</strong> UVB-induced DNA<br />
damage through induction <strong>of</strong> IL-12, which may<br />
lead to prevention <strong>of</strong> photocarcinogenesis.<br />
• Although it is possible th<strong>at</strong> not all cells with<br />
UVB-induced DNA damage may be repaired<br />
or elimin<strong>at</strong>ed using EGCG, the reduction in<br />
UVB-induced DNA damage by EGCG should<br />
be beneficial.
