Abstract

Regular consumption of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is associated with a low incidence of atherosclerotic diseases. The phenolic component contributes to the hypolipidemic action of EVOO, although the biochemical mechanisms leading this beneficial outcome are not fully understood. Since liver plays a pivotal role in the whole body lipid homeostasis, we investigated the short-term effects of EVOO extract, with a high phenol content (HPE), on lipid synthesis in primary rat hepatocytes. Refined olive oil extract, with a low phenol content, was used throughout this study as a control.
