It is concluded that the anti-inflammatory mechanism of green tea polyphenols is mediated at least in part through down-regulation of TNFalpha gene expression by blocking NF-KB activation.

Increased tumor necrosis factor production by monocytes in alcoholic hepatitis
- C. McClain, D. Cohen
- MedicineHepatology
- 1 March 1989
Monocytes from alcoholic hepatitis patients have significantly increased spontaneous and lipopolysaccharide‐stimulated tumor necrosis factor release compared to monocytes from healthy volunteers, suggesting that some of the metabolic abnormalities and possibly some ofThe liver injury of alcoholic hepatitis may be due to enhanced tumor Necrosis factor production.
