Plasma Catechols After Eating Olives
Olives contain 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl compounds (catechols)-especially 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethanol (DOPET)-that have therapeutic potential as nutraceuticals. Whether olive ingestion affects plasma levels of free (unconjugated) catechols has been unknown. Arm venous blood was sampled before and 15, 30, 45, 60, 120, 180, and 240 min after six healthy volunteers ate 10 Kalamata olives. Catechols were ...
متن کاملOlives
What is an olive? Well, botanically speaking, the fruit of the olive tree is a drupe, or stone fruit, and is cultivated on all continents (Figure 1), but the olive is much more than a fruit — it’s a symbol. Olives and the trees that bear them are mentioned in The Odyssey, the Quran, the Torah, and the Bible, just to name a few. Representing peace, abundance, and victory, this divine fruit has i...
متن کاملCatechols as membrane anion transporters.
We report that an amphiphilic bis-catechol (3) functions as a transmembrane anion transporter. Activity depends on the catechol's substitution and amphiphilicity. We also describe a liposomal assay that allows one to readily measure anion transport selectivity. This assay reveals that anion transport selectivity for this amphiphilic bis-catechol follows a Hofmeister sequence wherein anions that...
متن کاملBiophenolic components of olives
The occurrence of biophenolic components in olives provides functional value to the Mediterranean food culture, owing to recognized antioxidant activities of these substances. The concentration of biophenolic compounds in olives are closely linked to texture and organoleptic characteristics of agrifood products, i.e. table olive and olive oil. The concentrations of dierent biophenolic compound...
متن کاملPerspectives in Pharmacology Sources and Significance of Plasma Levels of Catechols and Their Metabolites in Humans
Human plasma contains several catechols, including the catecholamines norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine, their precursor, L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), and their deaminated metabolites, dihydroxyphenylglycol, the main neuronal metabolite of norepinephrine, and dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, a deaminated metabolite of dopamine. Products of metabolism of catechols include 3-methoxyt...
