Our previous study indicated that a diet containing a high dose (1%) of green tea polyphenols (GTPs) disrupted liver and kidney function via a reduction in antioxidant enzyme and heat shock protein (HSP) levels in both colitis and non-treated ICR mice. In the present study, we assessed the effects of 0.01%, 0.1%, and 1% dietary GTPs on liver and kidney physiological functioning in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-exposed and normal mice. GTPs at 0.01% and 0.1% significantly suppressed DSS-increased serum aspartate 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels. In contrast, GTPs at 1% increased kidney weight, serum creatinine levels, and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARs) in both the kidney and the liver in normal mice, as compared with DSS-exposed mice. GTPs at 0.01% and 0.1% remarkably upregulated the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) mRNA in the liver and kidney of mice exposed to DSS, whereas GTPs at 1% abolished it. Our results indicate that low and medium doses of GTPs have beneficial effects on DSS-induced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity via upregulation of self-protective enzymes, while these effects disappeared at a high dose.
