Description

Avenanthramid D is a dietary supplement that can be found in the form of an extract from the plant Dianthus caryophyllus. This extract has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be due to its inhibition of tyrosinase, a key enzyme in melanin biosynthesis. Avenanthramid D also inhibits the activity of other enzymes, such as anthranilic acid synthetase and amino acid decarboxylase. The biosynthesis of avenanthramides is initiated by the activation of anthranilic acid by an enzyme called anthranilate synthase. This enzyme is inhibited by sulfonamides and other compounds that act as competitive inhibitors for this enzyme's binding site on the anthranilate molecule.
