Inhibition of melanogenesis by the extract from Agaricus blazei without affecting iNOS gene expression

2010-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Tyrosinase is a key enzyme in melanin synthesis. Owing to enlargement of availability of edible types of mushrooms in food medicines, we investigated effects of Agaricus blazei (ABE) on tyrosinase activity using l-tyrosine and l-3, 4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (l-DOPA) as the substrate in normal human epidermal melanocytes (NHEM). ABE inhibited tyrosinase activity similar to arbutin and Vitamin C as two whitening agen...
