β¦ Synopsis
In searching for new agents with a depigmenting effect, we synthesized a derivative of resveratrol, 5-(6-hydroxy-2-naphthyl)-1,2,3-benzenetriol (5HNB) with a potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity.
5HNB inhibited mushroom tyrosinase with an IC 50 value of 2.95 lM, which is more potent than the well-known anti-tyrosinase activity of kojic acid (IC 50 = 38.24). The results of the enzymatic inhibition kinetics by Lineweaver-Burk analysis indicated 5HNB inhibits tyrosinase non-competitively when
