Fermented Rice Bran Downregulates MITF Expression and Leads to Inhibition of α-MSH-Induced Melanogenesis in B16F1 Melanoma

Abstract: Rice bran contains various polyphenolic compounds with anti-oxidative activities, and it has long been known to inhibit melanogenesis, but the inhibition mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Cofermentation of rice bran with Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae significantly reduced the cytotoxicity of the resulting extract to B16F1 melanoma cells. Marked reduction of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH) induced melanin synthesis was also observed upon treatment with fermented rice bra… Show more

“…It can also increase mitochondrial function in neural cells [9] and displays an inhibitory effect on melanogenesis by downregulation of MITF [10]. Additionally, rice bran possesses many phytochemicals and nutrients, with known chemopreventive and immune-enhancing properties, such as vitamins, γ-oryzanol, tocopherols, tocotrienols, phenolic acids, carotenoids, polysaccharides, phytosterols, essential amino acids, and micronutrients.…”

“…Melanin content was measured as described previously with minor modification (Chung et al, 2009). B16F10 cells (1  10 5 ) were seeded on 6-well tissue culture plates with various concentrations of pLTA for 24 h. The medium was then replaced with serum-free DMEM containing pLTA and -MSH.…”

“…Briefly, the cells were treated with the samples in DMEM containing 10% FBS for 3 d. After concentration by centrifugation, the cell pellets were dissolved in 1 ml of 1 N NaOH at 100℃ for 30 min and centrifuged again for 20 min at 16,000× g. The optical densities of the supernatants were measured at 400 nm using an UV-VIS spectrophotometer [6]. The level of DNA protection was calculated with absorbance and expressed as a percentage, compared to blank group.…”
