Tannins, Peptic Ulcers and Related Mechanisms

Abstract: This review of the current literature aims to study correlations between the chemical structure and gastric anti-ulcer activity of tannins. Tannins are used in medicine primarily because of their astringent properties. These properties are due to the fact that tannins react with the tissue proteins with which they come into contact. In gastric ulcers, this tannin-protein complex layer protects the stomach by promoting greater resistance to chemical and mechanical injury or irritation. Moreover, in several expe… Show more

“…Flavonoids have also been shown to increase the viability and proliferation of fibroblasts [36]. Tannins have antioxidant effect and may act in similar fashion to promote collagen deposition [37]. They also increase angiogenesis by increasing vascular endothelial growth factor formation, thus maintaining adequate supply of oxygen necessary for collagen stability [38].…”
