Abstract:In our previous study, we documented the anti-melanogenic efficacy of calebin-A (CBA), which is a curcuminoid analog. The effects of its newly synthesized analogs, i.e., bisdemethoxy calebin (BD), demethoxycalebin-1 (DA1), demethoxycalebin-2 (DA2), and tetrahydrocalebin-A (THCBA), on melanogenesis have not been examined yet. Herein, we evaluated these four CBA analogs to determine their impacts on the enzymatic activity of mushroom tyrosinase. Additionally, we examined their effects on melanogenesis and the ty… Show more
