Efficacy of oleuropein against UVB irradiation: preliminary evaluation

Abstract: Oleuropein, a phenolic compound derived from olive leaves and oil, is known to possess several biological properties, many of which may be attributed to its antioxidant and free radical-scavenging activities. Nevertheless, up to now, the cosmetic activity of this molecule has not been extensively investigated. The aim of this work was to evaluate the cosmetic properties of oleuropein against UVB-induced erythema. To this end, an emulsion and an emulgel containing oleuropein were prepared, applied and evaluated… Show more

“…Due to the beneficial properties of these natural compounds, the use of olive extracts as raw material in the manufacture of cosmetic products is an interesting way of innovation for cosmetic industries . Oleuropein, known to possess several biological properties many of which may be attributed to its antioxidant activity, seems to be very effective in preventing skin photoageing . HyT and Ty can be recovered from olive oil wastewaters .…”

“…This corroborates earlier case‐control and population‐based observations of a consistent trend towards lower risk of melanoma and SCC with higher levels of dietary n‐3 PUFAs 106 and elevated n‐3:n‐6 PUFA ratios 107 . Further, olive oil yields the phenolic antioxidants hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein, which have been shown to be protective against UVR‐induced carcinogenic cellular activity 108–110 …”

“…Thus, we suggest that olive oil‐induced reductions in ROS production may attenuate MMP‐2 expression through the inhibition of ERK 1/2 and c‐JUN pathway‐induced reduction in collagen fibre breakdown in ex vivo stressed human skin. This hypothesis is reinforced by previous studies where polyphenols (such as hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein) contained in olive oil protect human skin against UV radiation‐induced damage . Hydroxytyrosol administration reduces intracellular ROS generation, cellular apoptosis and DNA oxidative damage in human skin keratinocytes exposed to UVB radiation .…”
