The effect of tannic acid on gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase was studied. Tannic acid dose-dependently inhibited pig gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase activity with an IC50 value of 2.9 x 10(-8) M. Tannic acid also inhibited K(+)-stimulated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K(+)-pNPPase) activity, which is found in gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase preparations, as well as H+,K(+)-ATPase activity, with an IC50 value of 4.1 x 10(-7) M. Kinetic studies showed that the inhibition of H+,K(+)-ATPase activity by tannic acid was competitive with respect to ATP and noncompetitive with respect to K+. These results show that tannic acid is a potent inhibitor of gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase; this may be related to its anti-secretory and anti-ulcerogenic effects.

Mitochondrial proton F0F1-ATPase/ATP synthase synthesizes ATP during oxidative phosphorylation. In this study, we examined the effects of several groups of polyphenolic phytochemicals on the activity of the enzyme. Resveratrol, a stilbene phytoalexin that is present in grapes and red wine, concentration-dependently inhibited the enzymatic activity of both rat brain and liver F0F1-ATPase/ATP synthase (IC(50) of 12 - 28 microM). Screening of other polyphenolic phytochemicals using rat brain F0F1-ATPase activity resulted in the following ranking potency (IC(50) in parenthesis): piceatannol (8 microM)>resveratrol (19 microM)=(-)epigallocatechin gallate (17 microM)>(-)epicatechin gallate, curcumin (45 microM)>genistein=biochanin A=quercetin=kaempferol=morin (55 - 65 microM)>phloretin=apigenin=daidzein (approx. 100 microM). Genistin, quercitrin, phloridzin, (+)catechin, (+)epicatechin, (-)epicatechin and (-)epigallocatechin had little effect at similar concentrations. Tannic acid, theaflavins (tea extract) and grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) had IC(50) values of 5, 20 and 30 microg ml(-1), respectively. Several monophenolic antioxidants and non-phenolic compounds were ineffective at concentrations of 210 microM or higher. The inhibition of F0F1-ATPase by resveratrol and genistein was non-competitive in nature. The effects of polyphenolic phytochemicals were additive. Both resveratrol and genistein had little effect on the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity of porcine cerebral cortex, whereas quercetin had similar inhibitory potency as for F0F1-ATPase. In conclusion, the ATP synthase is a target for dietary phytochemicals. This pharmacological property of these phytochemicals should be included in the examination of their health benefits as well as potential cytotoxicity.
