Abstract

Oleuropein and its derivatives are secoBiophenols present in considerable amounts in olive leaves, drupes and virgin olive oils, which are responsible for its peculiar bitter taste and its stability.[1] Recent findings demonstrate that olive vegetation water (OVW) is active like a natural antiinflammatory drug. Moreover, (-) oleocantal, a fenolic aglycone of olive oil responsible for throat irritation, inhibit the cyclooxygenase enzymes in the prostaglandin-biosynthesis pathway with the same potency and profile of ibuprofen.[2] The easy access to the oleopentadial,[3] High-Throughput Assayed the UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS and Isotope Dilution Methods,[4] has allowed us also to investigate the the anti-inflammatory effect of oleopentanedial in a cell model we developed to mimic inflammatory injury of endothelium. Another a set of hydroxytyrosol conjugates with fatty acids at different molecular weights was synthesized under mild conditions. The topical delivery features of these new set of antioxidant molecules was evaluated as a function of their permeation profiles through the human stratum corneum and viable epidermis (SCE) membranes
