Melanogenesis Inhibition by Homoisoflavavone Sappanone A from <em>Caesalpinia sappan</em>
Homoisoflavanone, sappanone A, was isolated from <em>Caesalpinia sappan</em> and proven to dose-dependently inhibit both melanogenesis and cellular tyrosinase activity via repressing tyrosinase gene expression in mouse B16 melanoma cells. To our knowledge, sappanone A is...
