Maclurin Exhibits Antioxidant and Anti-Tyrosinase Activities, Suppressing Melanogenesis

Abstract excerpt

. Although maclurin showed anti-cancer and antioxidant effects, its roles in ultraviolet (UV)-induced melanogenesis have not been studied. Here, we investigated the effects of maclurin in melanogenesis using skin cells and a three-dimensional human skin model. When the cytotoxicity of maclurin was examined in B16F10 cells, no cytotoxicity was found up to 20 μM. Maclurin suppressed UVB-mediated tyrosinase...
