Hyperglycemia-induced vascular inflammation resulting in the adhesion of monocytes to endothelium is a key event in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis in diabetes. We investigated whether epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a major catechin found in green tea, reduces vascular inflammation in diabetes. Human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) were pre-treated with green tea catechins before the addition of high glucose (25 mM) for 72 h. EGCG at physiologically achievable concentration (1 µM) significantly inhibited high glucose-induced adhesion of monocytes to HAEC both in static and under flow conditions. EGCG also reduced NFκB-regulated transcriptional activity in ECs. Six-week-old diabetic db/db mice were fed a diet containing 0% or 0.1% EGCG for 8 wk. ECs were isolated from aortic vessels of db/db, db/db-EGCG, and control db/+ mice. EGCG supplementation greatly suppressed diabetes-increased monocytes adhesion to ECs, which is associated with reduced circulating levels of chemokines, and reduced secretions of chemokines and adhesion molecules by aortic ECs from db/db-EGCG mice. EGCG treatment reduced nuclear translocation of NFκB p65 in aortic vessels, decreased blood pressure and serum concentrations of cholesterol and triglycerides in db/db-EGCG mice. EGCG may have a direct protective effect against vascular inflammation in diabetes.
