Popis: Olive oil is widely accepted as a superioredible oil. Great attention has been given lately to olive oil polyphenols which are linked to significant health beneficial effects. Towards a survey of Greek olive oil focusing on polyphenols, representativeextra virgin olive oils(EVOOs) from the main producing areas of the country and the same harvesting period have been collected and analyzed. Significant differences and interesting correlations have been identified connecting certain polyphenols namelyhydroxytyrosol,tyrosol, oleacein and oleocanthal with specific parameters e.g. geographical origin, production procedure and cultivation practice. Selected EVOOs polyphenol extracts, with different oleacein and oleocanthal levels, as well as isolated oleacein and oleocanthal were bio-evaluated in mammalian cells and as a dietary supplement in theDrosophila in vivomodel. We found that oleocanthal and oleacein activated healthy aging-promoting cytoprotective pathways and suppressedoxidative stressin both mammalian cells and in flies.
