Abstract

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) consumption has been associated with reduced cardiovascular risk but molecular mechanisms underlying its beneficial effects are not fully understood. Here we aimed to identify genes and miRNAs expression changes mediated by acute high- and low-polyphenols EVOO intake. Pre- and post-challenge gene and miRNAs expression analysis was performed on the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 12 healthy subjects and 12 patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) by using microarray and RT-qPCR. In healthy subjects, acute intake of EVOO rich in polyphenols was able to ameliorate glycaemia and insulin sensitivity, and to modulate the transcription of genes and miRNAs involved in metabolism, inflammation and cancer, switching PBMCs to a less deleterious inflammatory phenotype; weaker effects were observed in patients with MS as well as in healthy subjects following low-polyphenol EVOO challenge. Concluding, our study shows that acute high-polyphenols EVOO intake is able to modify the transcriptome of PBMCs through the modulation of different pathways associated with the pathophysiology of cardio-metabolic disease and cancer. These beneficial effects are maximized in healthy subjects, and by the use of EVOO cultivars rich in polyphenols. Nutrigenomic changes induced by EVOO thus legitimate the well-known beneficial effects of EVOO in promoting human health and, potentially, preventing the onset of cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In vitro and in vivo studies have described dramatic changes in transcription of genes and microRNAs involved in the pathophysiology of cardiometabolic diseases and cancer following EVOO interventions.

    “As concerns possible mechanisms for a chemopreventive role of the MedDiet, several in vitro [174] and in vivo [175,176] studies have described dramatic changes in the transcription of genes and micro-RNAs involved in the pathophysiology of cardiometabolic diseases and cancer, following EVOO interventions.”
  • CREBBP was downregulated following acute EVOO intervention in both normal weight and obese individuals.

    “Interestingly, the cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) binding protein gene (CREBBP) was downregulated following acute EVOO intervention, in both normal weight and obese individuals [175].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
