“…In the present study we also found that levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-17A, TNF-α and IL-1B) significantly decreased, while those of anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10) significantly increased. This data suggests that the consumption of EVOO with a high content of OC can have important anti-inflammatory effects, and it is consistent with the natural anti-inflammatory properties of OC [ 14 , 77 , 78 ]. It has been previously reported that one of the mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory properties of OC is the inhibition of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-kB) pathway [ 79 ], which in turn may not only reduce the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines but also attenuate cortical cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) signaling [ 80 ].…”

“…Oleocanthal (OC) is a phenolic compound found mostly in EVOO which is responsible for its bitter taste, having strong anti-inflammatory properties based on the inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) [ 12 ]. For this reason, OC is recognized as a natural non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ].…”

“…Oc blocks LPS-mediated inflammatory response and inhibits MMP-13 and ADAMTS-5 aggrecanase, enzyme that mediates cartilage aggrecan degradation in human primary OA chondrocytes, suggesting that Oc may be a promising agent for the treatment of inflammation in cartilage and a potential molecule to prevent disease progression [262]. The topical application of an oily fluid enriched with Oc achieves a greater reduction in post-photodynamic therapy cutaneous inflammation and a better treatment response, in comparison with the application of a conventional oily fluid [263]. Also, inhibiton of platelet aggregation by extra virgin OO was shown to be in correlation with amount of Oc [264].…”

“…In the hemostasis phase, the healing process is initiated by a series of mechanisms that are set in motion to produce the hemostatic clot, thanks to the activation of the coagulation factor cascade, which results in the formation of a fibrin matrix that serves as the basis for subsequent cellular infiltration [4]. This stage is followed by the inflammation dermatitis, or actinic keratosis [36][37][38]. Although numerous papers have been published in the past decades regarding the advantageous effects of EVOO, there is only limited scientific evidence available on the effects of polyphenols found in EVOO on tissue regeneration.…”
