    Product Description

    Avenanthramide E is a phenolic alkaloid that has been found in A. sativa and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4,5 It is also an active metabolite of the antiallergic agent tranilast (Item Nos. 13044 | 46383).6 Avenanthramide E reduces lipid peroxidation in a cell-free assay at 40 µM, scavenges DPPH (Item No. 14805) radicals in a cell-free assay, reduces ferric to ferrous iron in a ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay, and inhibits hydrogen peroxide-induced DNA damage in HT-29 cells (EC50 = 1.1 µM).2,3 It inhibits the replication of monkeypox virus in infected Vero cells (EC50 = 8.1 µM).4 Avenanthramide E (100 µM) also inhibits TGF-β-induced collagen production by 50% in cultured renal mesangial cells.5

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
