茶多酚对心血管保护作用的研究进展

摘要

The World Health Organization reported in 2015 that cardiovascular disease was a leading cause of death worldwide. The number of death from cardiovascular diseases is increasing year by year. A large number of literature reported that tea polyphenols have a good preventive effect on cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, arrhythmia and myocardial ischemia reperfusion. The aim of this article is to review the health benefits of tea polyphenols against cardiovascular diseases and to outline the molecular mechanisms involved in cardioprotection of tea polyphenols. Additionally, it also describes the current status of research on tea polyphenols in China for the purpose of providing an outlook to the application prospects of polyphenols.%2015年世界卫生组织报道，心血管疾病已成为全球的主要死因之一，死于心血管疾病的人数逐年上升。大量实验证明茶多酚在抗动脉粥样硬化、降血压、降血脂、心肌保护、血管保护、抗心律失常和心肌缺血再灌注损伤等心血管保护作用方面均有较好的效果。本文对近年来茶多酚在防治心血管疾病方面的研究进展进行综述，概述了其心血管防护作用及机理，分析了我国茶多酚的研究现状，并对茶多酚的应用前景进行了展望，旨在为茶多酚在心血管疾病防治方面的应用提供参考。
