하이드록시타이로솔

Brown oil is derived from Olea europaea leaves and is soluble in methanol, DMSO, and other solvents but insoluble in petroleum ether, ether, and chloroform. The molecular structure of hydroxytyrosol is created by replacing the hydrogen atom on the methyl group of ethanol with catechol. It possesses an alcohol hydroxyl group in the chain of ethanol with a benzene ring, along with phenolic hydroxyl groups like other phenolic substances. Its antioxidant activity is closely linked to its structure.

일반 설명Hydroxytyrosol, found in olives, is a potent antioxidant in our bodies. It is considered one of the most powerful antioxidants, with an oxygen radical absorption capacity of about 4,500,000 μmolTE/100g. This is 10 times greater than green tea and more than double the antioxidant capacity of CoQ10 and oak extract. Hydroxytyrosol is used in cardiovascular drugs, and has miraculous effects on the prevention and treatment of arteriosclerosis, hypertension, heart disease, cerebral hemorrhage, etc., and is superior to similar drugs. It can also Inhibits the proliferation rate of cancer cells and induces apoptosis of cancer cells.

정의ChEBI: Hydroxytyrosol is a member of the class of catechols that is benzene-1,2-diol substituted by a 2-hydroxyethyl group at position 4. Isolated from Olea europaea, it exhibits antioxidant and antineoplastic activities. It has a role as a metabolite, an antioxidant and an antineoplastic agent. It is a member of catechols and a primary alcohol. It derives from a 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanol.
