Three classes of chemically defined tannins, gallotannins, ellagitannins and condensed tannins were examined for their inhibitory activities against purified poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. Ellagitannins showed higher inhibitory activities than gallotannins. In contrast, condensed tannins, which consist of an epicathechin gallate (ECG) oligomer without a glucose core were not appreciably inhibitory. Kinetic analysis revealed that the inhibition of ellagitannins was competitive with respect to the substrate poly(ADP-ribose), whereas gallotannins exhibited mixed-type inhibition. These results suggest that conjugation with glucose of hexahydroxy-diphenoyl (HHDP) group, which is a unique component of ellagitannins, potentiated the inhibitory activity, and that the structure of ellagitannins may have a functional domain which competes with poly(ADP-ribose) on the poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase molecule.

The inhibitory effects on poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase purified from human placenta of three classes of chemically defined tannins; gallotannins, ellagitannins and condensed tannins, were examined in vitro. Oligomeric ellagitannins were found to be most potent inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase, their potencies increasing with increasing number of monomeric residues (dimer < trimer < tetramer). Monomeric ellagitannins and gallotannins were less inhibitory. Condensed tannins, which consist of an epicatechin gallate oligomer without a glucose core, were not appreciably inhibitory. A structure-activity study showed that higher-order conformations of the conjugates with glucose of hexahydroxydiphenoyl and valoneoyl groups, which are unique components of ellagitannins, cooperatively potentiated the inhibitory activity.
