•ICAM-1 levels are associated with blood pressure variability.•Serum ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are higher in type 2 diabetes and uncontrolled hypertension.•Ambulatory blood pressure variability is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Endothelial dysfunction is a common feature in hypertension and type 2...
