A series of 3,5-substituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carbothioamide derivatives were synthesized. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic data interpretation and their tyrosinase inhibitory activity was determined. The results showed that compound 2 (at 1.00 mg/mL) exhibits significant tyrosinase inhibitory activity with % inhibition of 91.866 ± 2.086 with L-tyrosine as substrate whereas compound 3 (at 1.00 mg/mL) exhibits significant tyrosinase inhibitory activity with % inhibition of 79.266 ± 0.552 and 89.593 ± 1.015 with L-tyrosine and L-DOPA as substrates.

Tyrosinase is generally known as a melanin-forming enzyme, facilitating monooxygenation of phenols, oxidation of catechols into quinones, and finally generating biological melanin.

Recent studies reported synthetic strategies for large scale preparation of hydroxylated plant polyphenols, using bacterial tyrosinases rather than plant polyphenol oxidase or other monooxygenases, by leveraging its robust monophenolase activity and broad substrate speci

Tyrosinase is a bifunctional enzyme which oxidizes the initial step of melanin biosynthesis, that is, conversion of tyrosine to dopa and subsequently dopa to dopaquinone. It is a glycosylated protein and a major regulator of melanogenesis. To date, many approaches have been tried to regulate tyrosinase activity and melanin content. To that end, we screened small interfering RNA sequences for sequence-inhibited tyrosinase expression in B16 cells and in C57BL/6 mice.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine the inhibitory action of protocatechuic aldehyde (PCA) on tyrosinase activity. PCA is one of the compounds found in the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza. Our study documented that PCA has a potent inhibitory effect on tyrosinase, which catalyzes the rate-limiting step of melanin biosynthesis. Although melanin biosynthesis has an essential function normally in human skin for defense against ultraviolet light of the sun, its abnormal activity as seen in pigmentation disorder could lead to serious medical problems. Our data showed that PCA, with concentration

1. We have shown that the characteristic lag in cresolase activity of human skin tyrosinase at inhibitory concentration of tyrosine was absent at all pH values studied, i.e. pH 5.2, 5.7, 6.2 and 6.8, if the enzyme solubilized at low pH was used as the source of enzyme, but the same enzyme when dialysed against buffers of various pH values showed linear activity only at pH 5.2 and was not inhibited by excess tyrosine, whereas at higher pH values it exhibited a lag and inhibition by excess tyrosine. 2. However, the enzyme solubilized in buffer/detergent, pH 6.8, when dialysed against buffer of t

Abstract:
Methimazole (1-methyl-2-mercaptoimidazole) inhibits both the mono- and the o-dihydroxyphenolase activities of mushroom tyrosinase when assayed spectrophotometrically. With DL-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine as substrate, the inhibition was found to be a mixed-type one with Ki 4.6 × 10(-6) M. We found that methimazole can interact with the oxidation products of o-dihydroxyphenols, probably with o-quinones, to form a conjugate. The conjugate formed between methimazole and o-benzoquinone was separated by chromatography on Sephadex G-10 and was characterized by an absorption maximum at 248-260 nm. Our

Abstract:
Recent advances in the study of the molecular biology of mouse pigmentation have led to the discovery of a family of proteins involved in the control of melanin synthesis. It has been confirmed that the product of the mouse c (albino) locus is the key melanogenic enzyme tyrosinase, but study of its function and regulation have been hampered by the presence of closely related proteins within melanin-synthesising cells. To overcome these problems, we have established lines of mouse fibroblasts expressing the c locus mouse tyrosinase. Here we describe characterisation of the tyrosinase synthesise

The effects of Cissus quadrangularis Linn. extract on antioxidation and tyrosinase inhibition were investigated. The extract showed anti-oxidative activity with an IC50 value of 522.0 μg/mL, and inhibitory effects on tyrosinase activity and melanin production in B16 melanocytes in a dose-dependent manner (100-2000 μg/mL). This study suggests that this species contains anti-tyrosinase components.
