Mechanistic insights into the bioavailability of oleocanthal and oleacein from olive oil in presence of wine active peptides and amino acids

Abstract

Oleocanthal (OC) and oleacein (OL) are highly bioactive secoiridoids found in olive oil at elevated concentrations, especially when it is produced from unripe olives (Olea europaea L.). Both compounds have been correlated with strong activities against serious diseases through recent clinical trials. The most important clinical trials have been performed in patients against chronic lymphocytic leukemia1, against mild cognitive impairment2 and against platelet aggregation of normal3 or diabetic patients. Carefully designed nutritional interventions in humans using olive oil with high OC/OL content or olive oil without OC/OL have provided strong evidence about the unique therapeutic role of those compounds. However, both compounds do not actually circulate in the body and cannot be found in any biological fluid. Recent studies have shown that OC and OL react spontaneously with plasma aminoacids like glycine to form new highly bioactive chemical entities like oleoglycine that circulate in the blood and can also reach the brain of experimental animals4. During our continuous effort to understand the mechanisms of action of OC/OL, we investigated the reactions of both compounds with aminoacids and peptides found in white wines5. During this study we screened the selectivity and the rate of this reaction, and we discovered new metabolites with unique structures and properties like oleocysteine (1a,b), oleoserine (2a,b) or oleoglutathione (3a,b). The synthesized metabolites were structurally elucidated using NMR and MS. OC/OL selectivity was assessed by competitive nucleophilic addition reactions with peptides and amino acids at pH=7 and 3.5, quantifying products and ratios by UHPLC-Q-ToF MS. The obtained results can shed light on the mechanism of action of OC/OL and more significantly explain their bioavailability.

Comparative study of qualitative and quantitative characters of grape cultivar ‘Mavrodafni’ (Vitis vinifera L.) grown in different regions of the PDO Mavrodafni Patras

‘Mavrodafni’ (Vitis vinifera L.) is considered one of the oldest grapevine cultivars indigenous to the Greek vineyard, with western Peloponnese being its primary center of cultivation. ‘Renio’ is considered to be either a variant of ‘Mavrodafni’ or an altogether different cultivar. Both ‘Mavrodafni’ and ‘Renio’ can be found in the vineyards of the centers of cultivation, since ‘Renio’ is considered to be more productive compared to ‘Mavrodafni’, and for this reason, it has gradually replaced ‘Mavrodafni’ from cultivation over the course of time. The aim of the present study was to assay the mechanical properties, the polyphenolic content and the antioxidant capacity of skin extracts and must of berries coming from ‘Mavrodafni’ and ‘Renio’, cultivated in the same vineyard as well as in the different regions of cultivation of the PDO Mavrodafni Patras.

Influence of the temperature of the prise de mousse on the effervescence and foam of Champagne and sparkling wines.

The persistence of effervescence and foam collar during a Champagne or sparkling wine tasting constitute one, among others, specific consumer preference for these products. Many different factors related to the product or to the tasting conditions might influence their behavior in the glass

Terroir effects from the reflectance spectra of the canopy of vineyards in four viticultural regions

Knowledge of the reflectance spectrum of grape leaves is important to the identification of grape varieties in images of viticultural regions where several cultivars co-exist.

Evaluating alternatives to cold stabilization in wineries: the use of carboximethyl cellulose, potassium polyaspartate, electrodialysis and ion exchange resins – the results after one year in the bottle

The tartaric stabilization of wines before bottling to avoid the precipitation of tartaric acid salts is an important and common step during wine production. The presence of precipitated salt crystals in bottle wines is detrimental for their quality and even a legal issue in some countries. Cold stabilization is the most common stabilization treatment. Although it has been shown to be effective, it has some significant disadvantages, mainly regarding losses of color and aromas and its high cost. Therefore, other products and methodologies are being introduced in the wineries for the replacement of this process. Some of these new techniques involve the reduction of the ions causing the insolubilization of tartaric acid while other are based in the formation of protective colloids or the inhibition of the crystallization of salts. In this study, white, rosé and red wines have been treated with carboxymethylcellulose, potassium polyaspartate and an ion exchange resin. The tartaric stability of the wines, together with the oenological, chromatic and sensory characteristics were studied after the wines had been stored during one year in the bottle. The results indicate that the use of carboxymethyl cellulose and potassium polyaspartate maintained the best the sensory and chromatic characteristics and the wine stability of the wines in comparison with an untreated control wine.
