Notizen:
This study was conducted to isolate the constituent, which had a preventive effect on D-galactosamine-induced rat liver injury, from the 70% ethanol-soluble fraction of Japanese green tea. Theanine (glutamic acid γ-ethylamide) was identified as the active compound, and the liver injury-preventive effect of theanine was dose-dependent. L-Glutamic acid γ-ethyl ester, but not glutamine, also brought about a significantly preventive effect on liver injury when added to the diet at equimolar levels to that of 1% theanine. The results indicate that theanine is one of the effective constituents of Japanese green tea in preventing D-galactosamine-induced liver injury.
