The ability of the naturally occurring tumoricidal ellagitannin coriariin A to stimulate secretion of both IL-I beta and TNF-alpha from human peripheral blood mononuclear cems has been demonstrated. Companion studies with the monomeric gallotannin beta-D-pentagalloylglucose and a synthesized dimeric gallotannin-ellagitannin hybrid suggest that TNF-alpha rather than IL-I beta is the causative agent in tannin-mediated antitumor action in vivo, in contrast to an earlier proposal.
