Pomace Olive Oil Concentrated in Triterpenic Acids Restores Vascular Function, Glucose Tolerance and Obesity Progression in Mice
Open accessAbstract
Pomace olive oil, an olive oil sub-product, is a promising source of bioactive triterpenoids such as oleanolic acid and maslinic acid. Considering the vascular actions of pomace olive oil and the potential effects of the isolated oleanolic acid on metabolic complications of obesity, this study investigates for the first time the dietary intervention with a pomace olive oil with high concentrations of the triterpenic acids (POCTA), oleanolic and maslinic acid, during diet-induced obesity in mice. The results demonstrate that obese mice, when switched to a POCTA-diet for 10 weeks, show a substantial reduction of body weight, insulin resistance, adipose tissue inflammation, and particularly, improvement of vascular function despite high caloric intake. This study reveals the potential of a functional food based on pomace olive oil and its triterpenic fraction against obesity progression. Our data also contribute to understanding the health-promoting effects attributable to the Mediterranean diet.

Previous assays have shown that triterpenes characteristic of OPO (OA and MA) modulate endothelial cell inflammation and suppress the production of inflammatory mediators such as TNFα and nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-κB) in in vivo and in vitro assays.
“Previous assays have shown that triterpenes characteristic of OPO (OA and MA) modulate endothelial cell inflammation and suppress the production of inflammatory mediators such as TNFα and nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF-κB) in in vivo and in vitro assays [7, 8, 34, 39].”

The Introduction identifies oleanolic and maslinic acids as triterpenes in pomace olive oil. Results §3.3 reports that a triterpenic-acid-enriched pomace olive oil diet attenuated Tnfα gene expression in adipose tissue and liver of obese mice. The paper does not report suppression of NF-κB or show that these acids suppress inflammatory mediators in endothelial cells in both in vivo and in vitro assays. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredNumerous in vitro and preclinical studies with minor components of OPO have shown promising results on different cardiometabolic traits.
“Numerous in vitro and preclinical studies have been conducted with one or more of these so-called minor components of OPO, offering promising results on different cardiometabolic traits [7–9].”

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.
