Assessment of the Effect of Arbutin Isomers and Kojic Acid on Melanin Production, Tyrosinase Activity, and Tyrosinase Expression in B16-4A5 and HMV‐II Melanoma Cells
The inhibitory effects of α-arbutin, β-arbutin, and kojic acid on melanogenesis, tyrosinase activity, and tyrosinase protein expression in mouse melanoma cells (B16-4A5) and human melanoma cells (HMV‐II) were directly compared. β-Arbutin showed a stronger inhibitory effect on melanogenesis and tyrosinase expression in B16-4A5 cells than α-arbutin and kojic acid. Kojic acid showed a stronger inh...

متن کاملInduction of a bystander effect after therapeutic ultrasound exposure in human melanoma: In-vitro assay
Background: The induction of bystander effect via ionizing radiation has been well proven. However, few studies have investigated the bystander effect following non-ionizing radiation, such as ultrasound waves. Here, the bystander effect after different sonication times on human melanoma cell line (A375), is evaluated by assessing cell viability and apoptosis. Materials and Methods: The cells w...
متن کاملArbutin increases the pigmentation of cultured human melanocytes through mechanisms other than the induction of tyrosinase activity.
We assessed the effects of arbutin on the pigmentation of cultured normal human melanocytes. As indicated by a cell-blotting assay, arbutin at concentrations in the range of 0.5-8 mM increased the pigmentation of the cultured melanocytes, while kojic acid at concentrations in the range of 0.5-4 mM decreased the pigmentation. The pigmentation-augmenting effect of arbutin was further confirmed by...
متن کاملEffect of curcumin on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of human melanoma A375 cells.
Malignant melanoma is a melanocytic tumor with a high potential of invasion and metastasis. Curcumin is extracted from Curcuma longa L.; curcumin has anti-tumor efficacy in multiple systemic malignancies. Here, we investigated the effect of curcumin on A375 human melanoma cells. A375 cells were cultivated, passaged, and treated with different concentrations of curcumin. We observed the cellular...
