Carcinogenicity of Camellia sinensis (tea) and some tannin-containing folk medicinal herbs administered subcutaneously in rats.
In an attempt to correlate the high incidence of esophageal carcinoma in natives of certain places with their habit of using herbaceous folk medicines, we performed bioassays of several plant extracts and the fractions prepared from them. Fourteen extracts and fractions from 6 plants were injected sc into NIH Black rats. The tannin fractions from Quercus falcata pagodaefolia, Diospyros virginiana, and Camellia sinensis were very active and produced tumors at the injection site in 66% or more of the treated animals. Tannin fractions from 3 other plants and total aqueous extracts from 5 to 6 tested plants were also tumorigenic rats. The induced tumors were malignant fibrous histiocytomas similar, if not identical, to those encountered in humans. The experiment indicated a possibility of induction of tumor in man by the tested plant materials.
