One of the most common approaches for control of skin pigmentation involves the inhibition
of tyrosinase, a copper-containing enzyme which catalyzes the key steps of melanogenesis …

The skin containing melanin pigment acts as a protective barrier and counteracts the UVR
and other environmental stressors to maintain or restore disrupted cutaneous homeostasis …

As a class of plant polyphenolic compounds contained in some forages (ie, sainfoin

The conventional view of using medicines as routine treatment of an intractable disease is
being challenged in the face of extensive and growing evidence that flavonoids in foods …

The aim of this study was to extract and purify anthocyanins from Lycium ruthenicum Murr.
and evaluate their tyrosinase inhibitory activity. Response surface methodology was …

Tyrosinase catalyzes the oxidation of l-tyrosine in two stages to produce l-dopa and l-
dopaquinone stepwise, and l-dopaquinone is subsequently converted to dopachrome. Most …

Proanthocyanidins (PAs) are a group of polyphenols enriched in plant and human food. In
recent decades, epidemiological studies have upheld the direct relationship between PA …

Valonea tannin is a natural product readily extracted from acorn shells that has been
suggested to have potential skin whitening properties. This study investigated the tyrosinase …

In this study, the inhibitory effect and mechanism of rifampicin on the activity of tyrosinase
were investigated for developing a novel tyrosinase inhibitor. It was found to have a …

Omeprazole was first evaluated for its antityrosinase activity and preservation of fresh-cut
apples. The results obtained from enzymic analyses showed that the omeprazole inhibited …
