Caffeine regulated four inflammation-related signaling pathways (Toll-like receptor signaling, JAK-STAT signaling, NF-kappa B signaling, and Th17 cell differentiation) and seven metabolic signaling pathways (glutathione metabolism, PPAR signaling, phagosome, PI3K-Akt signaling, insulin signaling, fructose and mannose metabolism, and AMPK signaling) that were not regulated by EGCG (Figure 8A, left side of orange box)

Several mutations in Cu, Zn-SOD gene are found to be associated with FALS.[66] In addition, Cu, Zn-SOD is one of the prime victims of oxidative damage to the brain in AD and Parkinsons disease.[67] It has been experimentally demonstrated that overexpression of SOD-2 reduces hippocampal superoxide and hence prevents memory deficits in a mouse model of AD.[68] SOD supplementation showed improvement in mice model of AD.[69] SOD/catalase mimetic EUK-207 exhibited protection against and interruption of progression of amyloid and tau pathology and cognitive decline in a mouse model of AD.[70] SOD and diabetes Increased oxidative stress plays a major role in the etiology of diabetes and its complications.[71-73] In diabetes, persistent hyperglycemia stimulates the production of ROS from various sources.[74] As a result, diabetes usually leads to increased formation of ROS and weakened antioxidant defenses.[75,76] SOD catalyzes the conversion of O 2 - into H 2 O 2

High levels can be linked to high iron (possible hemochromatosis) and low levels can be a sign of functional anemia
