Popis: | Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the primary polyphenol component of green tea, has been shown to inhibit both oxidation and inflammation. However, the exact mechanism through which EGCG exhibits anti-inflammatory effects remains unclear. In this study, we assessed the potential pathways by which EGCG regulates NLRP3 inflammasome activity in vitro. We found that EGCG inhibits caspase-1 activation and IL-1β secretion by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activation in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). EGCG was also observed to block NLRP3-mediated ASC speckle formation and to alleviate pyroptosis in BMDMs. In addition, EGCG treatment could improve high-fat diet (HFD)-induced glucose tolerance and prevent NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent inflammation in a mouse model of HFD-induced type 2 diabetes (T2D). Taken together, our results show that EGCG is a general inhibitor of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and administration of EGCG in T2D mice could improve glucose tolerance in vivo. |
