| Application: | Oleuropein has been used: • as an anticancer agent to test its effect on different apoptotic pathway regulators in two breast cancer cell lines (MCF7 and MDA-MB-231) in cell viability assay • as an antioxidant to test its effect on the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced premature senescence in human fibroblast cell lines • to test its anticancer properties on the cell viability, cisplatin resistance, and apoptosis in two ovarian cell lines (A2780S and A2780/CP cell lines) • as a model antioxidant to analyze the quenching activity of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydr |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Oleuropein has many pharmacological benefits with its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, neuroprotective, and anti-aging effects. It has shown antimycoplasmal activity against Mycoplasma strains in in vitro studies. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Phenolic constituent of olive oil. Contributes to anticancer properties of olive oil. Oleuropein and its metabolite, hydroxytyrosol, inhibit the rate of cancer cell proliferation and induce cancer cell apoptosis. |
| General description: | Oleuropein is one of the main phenolic compounds of olive oil, which gives a bitter and pungent taste to the extra-virgin olive oil. It is a type of secoiridoids and an ester of 3-Hydroxytyrosol with an oleosidic skeleton. Oleuropein is found in the oil and fruits of Olea europaea and also in genera belonging to the Oleaceae family. |
