General description

Oleuropein is the major secondary metabolite found in the olive leaf extract. It is a secoiridoid polyphenol with a structure comprising of a glycosylated ester of elenolic acid with hydroxytyrosol.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Application

Oleuropein has been used:
  • as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent in hepatic steatosis on high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice
  • to evaluate protective effects and antioxidant properties on male reproductive function in mice
  • to study its inhibitory effects on bacterial (E. coli) ATP synthase
  • as an inhibitor of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) to test its effect on the proliferation of breast cancer cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

Oleuropein has anti-cancer, antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-ischemic and hypolipidemic activities. It functions as a skin protectant and aids anti-aging. Oleuropein is also implicated in anti-platelet aggregation, hypotensive, anti-rheumatic, antipyretic, diuretic and vasodilatory effects. It reduces the risk of coronary artery diseases. Oleuropein has been shown to augment the secretion of noradrenaline and adrenaline in rat.

The naturally occurring olive phenolics tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol, dihydroxyphenylglycol (DHPG), and oleuropein are known to have antioxidant, antitumor, and antibacterial properties. In the current study, we examined whether the antimicrobial properties of tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol, DHPG, and oleuropein were linked to the

Oleuropein, an intensely bitter glucoside, was isolated from green olives. Hydrolysis products obtained from oleuropein in sufficient quantity for further tests were: (i) beta-3,4-dihydroxyphenylethyl alcohol prepared by acid hydrolysis of oleuropein; (ii) elenolic acid obtained by methanolysis of oleuropein, isolation
