The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of different green tea extracts (GTEs) in reducing free radical-mediated damage in comparison to a well known antioxidant agent, α-tocopherol, using cultured cardiomyocytes as an experimental model system. Based on our results, GTE 3 presents a protective effect similar to α-tocopherol and can be considered a highly protective at cardiac level.
