| Bioactivity | Oleuropein, found in olive leaves and oil, exerts antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic effects through direct inhibition of PPARγ transcriptional activity[1]. Oleuropein induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells via the p53-dependent pathway and through the regulation of Bax and Bcl2 genes. Oleuropein also inhibits aromatase[2]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Aromatase, a cytochrome P450 enzyme, is an important pharmacological target in breast cancer therapy[2]. | ||||||||||||
