Abstract: Olive oil, which is commonly used in the Mediterranean diet, is known for its health benefits related to the reduction of the risks of cancer, coronary heart disease, hypertension, and neurodegenerative disease. These unique properties are attributed to the phytochemicals with potent antioxidant activities in olive oil. Olive leaf also harbours similar bioactive compounds. Several studies have reported the effects of olive phenolics, olive oil, and leaf extract in the modulation of thyroid activities. A systematic review of the literature was conducted to identify relevant studies on the effects of olive derivatives on thyroid function. A comprehensive search was conducted in October 2020 using the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. Cellular, animal, and human studies reporting the effects of olive derivatives, including olive phenolics, olive oil, and leaf extracts on thyroid function were considered. The literature search found 445 articles on this topic, but only nine articles were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All included articles were animal studies involving the administration of olive oil, olive leaf extract, or olive pomace residues orally.

  • The Biological Activities of Oleocanthal from a Molecular Perspective
    nutrients Review The Biological Activities of Oleocanthal from a Molecular Perspective Kok-Lun Pang 1 and Kok-Yong Chin 2,* 1 Biomedical Science Programme, School of Diagnostic and Applied Health Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur 50300, Malaysia; [email protected] 2 Department of Pharmacology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre, Cheras 56000, Malaysia * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +60-16-708-2900 Received: 10 April 2018; Accepted: 3 May 2018; Published: 6 May 2018 Abstract: Oleocanthal is a minor constituent of olive oil with strong anti-inflammatory activities. Since the pathogenesis of many chronic diseases involves inflammatory and oxidative components, oleocanthal is a promising agent to prevent these conditions. This review aimed to summarise the current beneficial health effects of oleocanthal and the molecular basis of its biological actions. The anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, antimicrobial, anticancer and neuroprotective activities of oleocanthal have been examined by previous studies. Of these, studies on the anticancer effects have been the most extensive. Oleocanthal was reported to suppress melanoma, breast, liver, and colon cancer cells. Neurological studies focused on the effects of oleocanthal against Alzheimer’s disease. Oleocanthal improved clearance of the amyloid beta protein from neurons and reduced the inflammation of astrocytes. Despite the positive results, validation of the biological effects of oleocanthal in animal disease models is limited and should be emphasized in the future. As a conclusion, oleocanthal may act together with other bioactive compounds in olive oil to achieve its therapeutic potential. The use of oleocanthal alone as a single therapeutic measure awaits validation from future studies.

Abstract: Detection of relevant contaminants using screening approaches is a key issue to ensure food safety and respect for the regulatory limits established. Electrochemical sensors present several advantages such as rapidity; ease of use; possibility of on-site analysis and low cost. The lack of selectivity for electrochemical sensors working in complex samples as food may be overcome by coupling them with molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs). MIPs are synthetic materials that mimic biological receptors and are produced by the polymerization of functional monomers in presence of a target analyte. This paper critically reviews and discusses the recent progress in MIP-based electrochemical sensors for food safety. A brief introduction on MIPs and electrochemical sensors is given; followed by a discussion of the recent achievements for various MIPs-based electrochemical sensors for food contaminants analysis. Both electropolymerization and chemical synthesis of MIP- Citation: Elfadil, D.; Lamaoui, A.; based electrochemical sensing are discussed as well as the relevant applications of MIPs used in Della Pelle, F.; Amine, A.; sample preparation and then coupled to electrochemical analysis.

Neurodegeneration characterizes pathologic pathological events, including oxidative stress, mitochondrial conditions, ranging from Alzheimer’s disease to glaucoma, dysfunction, inflammation and protein aggregation (2, 3). with devastating social and economic effects. It is a The increasing knowledge of the cellular and molecular complex process implicating a series of molecular and events underlying the degenerative process has greatly cellular events, such as oxidative stress, mitochondrial stimulated research for identifying compounds capable of dysfunction, protein misfolding, excitotoxicity and stopping or, at least, slowing the progress of neural inflammation. Natural compounds, because of their broad deterioration. spectrum of pharmacological and biological activities, Natural compounds are complex chemical multiple-target could be possible candidates for the management of such molecules found mainly in plants and microorganisms (4). multifactorial morbidities.

  • Oleuropein Alleviates Gestational Diabetes Mellitus by Activating AMPK Signaling
    ID: 20-0466 10 1 Z Zhang, H Zhao et al. Oleuropein activates AMPK 10:1 45–53 signaling RESEARCH Oleuropein alleviates gestational diabetes mellitus by activating AMPK signaling Zhiwei Zhang*, Hui Zhao* and Aixia Wang Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Liaocheng People’s Hospital, Liaocheng, Shandong, China Correspondence should be addressed to A Wang: [email protected] *(Z Zhang and H Zhao contributed equally to this work) Abstract Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) has a high incidence rate among Key Words pregnant women. The objective of the study was to assess the effect of plant-derived f oleuropein oleuropein in attenuating inflammatory and oxidative stress of GDM. f gestational diabetes Methods: Oleuropein was administered to GDM mice at the doses of 5 or 10 mg/kg/ mellitus day. Body weight, blood glucose, insulin and hepatic glycogen levels were recorded. To f oxidative stress evaluate the effect of oleuropein in reducing oxidative stress, ELISA was used to measure f inflammation the hepatic oxidative stress markers. The inflammation levels of GDM mice were f AMPK signaling evaluated by measuring serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α by ELISA and mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 by real-time PCR (RT-PCR). The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway was assessed by Western blot. Gestational outcome was analyzed through comparing litter size and birth weight. Results: Oleuropein attenuated the elevated body weight of GDM mice and efficiently reduced blood glucose, insulin and hepatic glycogen levels. Oxidative stress and inflammation were alleviated by oleuropein treatment. The AMPK signaling was activated by oleuropein in GDM mice.

While table olive processing methods are designed to reduce oleuropein, the impact of processing on ligstroside and related hydrolysis products (e.g., oleacein, oleocanthal, hydroxytyrosol glucoside, ligstroside aglycone, and oleuropein aglycone) is relatively unknown. Herein, levels of these com- pounds were measured in Spanish-style green (SP), Californian-style black ripe (CA), and Greek-style natural fermentation (GK) olives using rapid ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS).
