Comment: Oleuropein is one of the main phenolic compounds found in the European olive tree Olea europaea. It has been reported to have a number of pharmacological properties and associated health benefits including anti-inflammatory, anti-atherogenic, anti-cancer, antimicrobial and antiviral activities [3]. Oleuropein and its metabolite hydroxytyrosol have been shown to have strong antimicrobial activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria [1].
Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Bioactivity Comments |
Hydroxytyrosol, the main metabolite of oleuropein, demonstrates broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity with an MIC of 0.24 μg/ml for Vibrio parahaemolyticus and 7.85 μg/ml for Staphylococcus aureus [1]. In the same study, oleuropein was found to have antimicrobial activity but at a reduced level with an MIC of 62.5 μg/ml for both Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Staphylococcus aureus. |
