Potential Hepatoprotective Activity of Super Critical Carbon Dioxide Olive Leaf Extracts against CCl4-Induced Liver Damage

Abstract: Virgin olive oil has demonstrated its effective activity against oxidative stress. However, data on the bioactive effect of olive leaves or their major constituents on the liver are scarce. The present research work was conducted to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extracts from fresh and dried olive leaves on hepatotoxicity caused by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in rat models. For this purpose, healthy albino rats of 180–250 g weight were used. The assessment of bi… Show more

“…In this sense, olive leaf composition has been studied by different authors [13][14][15][16][17], reporting the richness in bioactive compounds belonging to phenolic compounds, such as hydroxytyrosol, catechin, rutin, verbascoside, luteolin and oleuropein [18]. These compounds have been associated with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiobesity or chemopreventive effects [15,[19][20][21][22][23][24], among other activities. Specifically, oleuropein, which is formed by elenolic acid, glucose and hydroxytyrosol, acts as a powerful antioxidant at skin level [2].…”

“…Carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 ) is a well-known hepatotoxin and potent industrial solvent widely used in laboratory to induce liver injury in animals (5). CCl 4 itself has no cytotoxic effect, but its rapid biotransformation to trichloromethyl and Cl − radicals with reacting oxygen catalyzed by cytochrome P450 in microsomes induced hepatotoxicity (6,7). It has been proved that several manifestations of liver damage are associated with oxidative stress and redox imbalance.…”

“…Several studies credit the Olea Europaea leaf extract (OLEX) for the majority of the beneficial effects that the Mediterranean diet has on human health [ 218 , 219 , 220 , 221 , 222 ]. Initially, the richness of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), and in particular that of oleic acid, was considered the major healthful characteristic of OLEX.…”
