Súhrn: Information on the antioxidant activity of oat avenanthramides is available but not in relation to other prospective biological activities. Data on the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-itch, anti-irritant and antiatherogenic activities of avenanthramides have been previously published. In the present study, surprisingly, mild inhibitory activity of avenanthramide A on thrombin, trypsin, plasmin and papain was detected. Avenanthramide B was shown to inhibit chymotrypsin and pepsin activities, while avenanthramide C was found to strongly inhibit chymotrypsin activity and moderately trypsin activity. The results obtained indicate prospective use of avenanthramides as building blocks for selective proteinase inhibitors and suggest the necessity of systematic research on other enzymes to complete a profile of their biological activity.
