Figure 3

Impact of EGCG on cancer-related signaling pathways. Components of ERK, PI3K-Akt, and 67-LR pathways (from right to left side of the image) are displayed. EGCG interference on ERK and PI3K-Akt pathways may depend on EGCG interaction with a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) or PTEN upregulation. EGCG binding to 67-LR may also induce acid sphingomyelinase (αSMase) activation and ceramide generation. See text in 2.1. subsection for a detailed description of the impacted signaling cascades and their implications. Red blunt arrows indicate negative regulation. Black arrows indicate positive regulation. Figure created with BioRender.com (accessed on 20 April 2022).
