新型コロナウイルス・オミクロン変異株に対する茶カテキン類の効果
Effects of tea catechin-related compounds on Omicron subvariants of SARS-CoV-2

Effects of tea and tea catechin-related compounds on Omicron subvariants of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. A) All the Omicron subvariants were efficiently inactivated by treatment with green tea, Matcha green tea, or black tea for 10 sec, while effects of a bottled tea beverage on some subvariants were limited. B-D) Among the tea catechins, EGCG and GCG significantly inactivated some Omicron subvariants including BA.1, while others including BA.2.75 were relatively resistant to the catechins. E and F) Each subvariant showed different sensitivity to Theaflavins. F) BA.1 virus was significantly inactivated in vitro by saliva from healthy volunteers who consumed a candy containing EGCG or TFDG, provided that the saliva was collected from the volunteers immediately after the cessation of the candy consumption. Virus titer of each sample (means +/- S.D.) is shown. The viruses were kindly provided by Japan National Institute of Infectious Diseases (Tokyo, Japan). ****p<0.0001, ***p<0.001, **p<0.01, *p<0.05 vs. Control (D2W) by Tukey's multiple comparisons test.
