Pharmacokinetic, antihypertension and deep sequencing MiRNomes analysis of aorta from SHR fed with EGCG

ABSTRACT: Mechanism (s) of the epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) as major effective components in green tea regarding the reduction of hypertensive risk might associate with microRNAs (miRNAs). The plasma distribution of EGCG and epigallocatechin (EGC) in Sprague-Dawley rats were analyzed pharmacokinetically and found that they did not distribute well in plasma but widely in tissues, and their plasma deposition best fitted a mono-compartmental model with Cmax (6.65 vs 4.45 μg/mL) and Tmax (15 vs 10 min). Blood pressure monitoring of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) intragastrically administrated with 300 mg/kg BW showed that systolic blood pressure (SBP) decreased to the lowest point by 34.04 mmHg and recovered by 23.39 mmHg after 15 and 30 min of administration, respectively, and it decreased again at 60 min and recovered at time 2 h. Total 150 upregulated and 18 downregulated miRNAs were identified via the deep sequencing and were 1.0 or 0.5 fold to the control group (P<0.01) after EGCG administration. And, hypertension-associated miRNA-126-3p and miRNA-150 were further validated by qRT-PCR. It might help explore novel pathways involving antihypertensive effect of EGCG.
