Nestlé Research Wins First Best Poster Presentation at Polyphenols Applications 2024
Dr. Laure Poquet of Nestlé Research has been awarded the Best Poster Presentation (1) at Polyphenols Applications 2024 for her outstanding research on oleuropein metabolites.
Her poster, “Oleuropein Metabolites Are Biologically Active as Mitochondrial Calcium Activators at the Concentration Measured in Human Plasma,” highlighted the bioactivity of these metabolites derived from olive leaf extracts.
The study demonstrated that, at concentrations measurable in human plasma, these metabolites can activate mitochondrial calcium, leading to enhanced energy metabolism in muscle cells.
This achievement marks a significant step in understanding the role of oleuropein in improving muscle function and supporting healthy aging. Congratulations to Dr. Poquet on this well-deserved recognition!
