1 This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that EGCG was able to inhibit tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and investigated the underlying molecular mechanisms. epigallocatechin gallate C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
2 This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that EGCG was able to inhibit tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and investigated the underlying molecular mechanisms. epigallocatechin gallate C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
3 METHODS: The inhibitory effect of EGCG on TNF-alpha-induced expression of MCP-1 was measured using ELISA and RT-qPCR. epigallocatechin gallate C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
4 RESULTS: EGCG significantly suppressed the TNF-alpha-induced protein and mRNA expression of MCP-1. epigallocatechin gallate C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
5 In addition, the 67-kD laminin receptor (67LR) was involved in EGCG-mediated suppression of MCP-1 generation. epigallocatechin gallate C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
6 CONCLUSION: EGCG suppresses TNF-alpha-induced MCP-1 expression in HUVECs. epigallocatechin gallate C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
