General description

Avenacoside A is a natural product derived from a plant source and exclusively present in whole grain oat. Avenacoside A is glycosylated with a trisaccharide at C-3 and with a glucose unit at C-26 position.

Application

Avenacoside A may have been used as a reference standard to identify the metabolite annotation in the leaves of various Avena sativa (oats) cultivars.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Avenacoside A displays anti-proliferative effects by inhibiting the growth of human colon cancer cells.It also serves as an exposure biomarker that is considered for epidemiologic studies with respect to whole grain uptake.

The first step in crop introduction-or breeding programmes-requires cultivar identification and characterisation. Rapid identification methods would therefore greatly improve registration, breeding, seed, trade and inspection processes. Metabolomics has proven to be indispensable in interrogating cellular biochemistry and phenotyping. Furthermore, metabolic
