Background:Melanogenesis begins with the oxidation of L-tyrosine to L-Dopa by tyrosinase. Inhibition of tyrosinase could be effective in treatment of complications such as skin lesions, eczema and melasma. Inhibition of tyrosinase could be effective in treatment of those complications. The aim of this study was to determine inhibitory activity on tyrosinase and antioxidant activity of Ast...

the present study was designed to investigate the anti-melanogenic and cytotoxic activities of methanol extract of phlomis kurdica. the antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activity of meoh extract from p. kurdica (mpk) were examined by dpph radical scavenging and mushroom tyrosinase activity assays (in vitro), respectively. furthermore, the effect of mpk on the melanin content, cellular tyrosinase ...

Abstract Background Moju is a traditional rice beverage local to Jeonju with an alcohol content of 1–2%. made by boiling makgeolli several kinds medicinal herbs, such as ginger, jujube and cinnamon. The raw materials used in are well known for their physiological functional effects. Although materials, the operational role has not yet been reported. Objectives aim this study was identify anti-m...

background: safety and efficacy of the synthetic antioxidants used in the food industry are frequently questioned because such antioxidants are unstable and highly volatile, therefore, interest in finding naturally occurring antioxidants that have the potential to protect human beings from damage induced by oxidative stress has intensified. objective: bioactivities of thymus daenensis and aneth...

The present study was designed to investigate the anti-melanogenic and cytotoxic activities of methanol extract of Phlomis kurdica. The antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activity of MeOH extract from P. kurdica (MPk) were examined by DPPH radical scavenging and mushroom tyrosinase activity assays (in vitro), respectively. Furthermore, the effect of MPk on the melanin content, cellular tyrosinase ...

The plant Cardaria draba (L.) Desv. subsp. (Brassicaceae), is traditionally used for various ailments in different cultures. We investigated solvent extracts such as methanol, ethanol, and water obtained from flowers, leaves, stems, roots of C. their chemical composition, well antioxidant enzyme inhibition activities acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), ?-glucosidase, ?-am...

melanin pigment plays a critical role in camouflage and   protection against harmful effects of solar radiation. melanogenesis is under   complex regulatory control by multiple agents. tyrosinase is a   multifunctional, which catalyzes the first two steps in mammalian   melanogenesis. in this study, inhibitory effects of astragalus fasciculifolius   and astragalus gypsicolus on diphenolase acti...

OBJECTIVES Involvement of tyrosinase in the synthesis of melanin and cell signaling pathway has made it an attractive target in the search for therapeutic inhibitors for treatment of different skin hyperpigmentation disorders and melanoma cancers. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the present study, we conducted a comprehensive kinetic analysis to understand the mechanisms of inhibition imposed by 2-a...
