Figure 5. EGCG and ECG induce SOD and CTL activity and a shift in lipid metabolism in the long term. SOD (A) or CTL (B) activity after treatment with 0.1% DMSO, 2.5 μM EGCG or 2.5 μM ECG for 24 h or 7 days. The representative outcome of lifespan assay of sod-2 mutants treated with 0.1% DMSO or 2.5 μM EGCG. (C) The representative outcome of lifespan assay of ctl-2 mutants treated with 0.1% DMSO or 2.5 μM ECG. (D) Triglyceride content in N2 wild-type nematodes after treatment with 0.1% DMSO, 2.5 μM EGCG or 2.5 μM ECG for 5 days, normalized to protein content. (E) P-values are as indicated in the graphs. See
