BEFORE / AFTER

What changed from existing technology?

Previous limitation

This study shows that EGCG, a compound found in green tea, can stop gastric cancer cells from spreading by affecting a specific cell signaling pathway called the Hedgehog pathway.

This research

This is the first study to demonstrate that EGCG targets the Hedgehog signaling pathway to inhibit gastric cancer cell invasion and migration.
