Prospective Application of Tannic Acid in Acetaminophen (APAP)-Induced Acute Liver Failure.

This study investigated the effect of tannic acid (TA), a natural plant-derived polyphenol, on hepatocyte viability and function, focusing on both hepatoprotective and hepatocurative aspects within liver failure models. In an in vitro prevention model, the TA-containing group exhibited 1.5-fold and 59-fold higher relative cell viability and albumin synthesis, respectively, in injured mature hepatocytes (MHs) and 1.
