Effects of Oleacein, a New Epinutraceutical Bioproduct from Extra Virgin Olive Oil, in LPS-Activated Murine Immune Cells.

ABSTRACT: The present study was designed to evaluate the immunomodulatory effects of the secoiridoid from extra virgin olive oil, oleacein (OLA), deepening into the possible signaling pathways involved in LPS-activated murine peritoneal macrophages. Moreover, we have explored OLA-induced epigenetic changes in histone markers and related cytokine production in murine LPS-stimulated murine splenocytes. Murine cells were treated with OLA in the presence or absence of LPS (5 μg/mL) for 18 or 24 h. OLA modulated the oxidative stress and the inflammatory response produced by LPS stimulation in murine peritoneal macrophages, by the inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, IFN-γ, IL-17 and IL-18) and ROS production and the expression of pro-inflammatory enzymes such as iNOS, COX-2 and m
