Acetazolamide Inhibits the Level of Tyrosinase and Melanin: An Enzyme Kinetic, In Vitro, In Vivo, and In Silico Studies
29 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Melanin is the major factor that determines skin color and protects from ultraviolet radiation. In present study we evaluated the anti‐melanogenesis effect of acetazolamide (ACZ) using four different approaches: enzyme kinetic, in vitro, in vivo and in silico. ACZ demonstrated significant inhibitory activity (IC50 7.895 ± 0.24 μm) against tyrosinase as compared to the standard drug kojic acid (IC50 16.84 ± 0.64...
