This study demonstrated that novel curcumin analogs CMC2.24, CMC2.23, and CMC2.5 were more effective and less toxic than parent curcumin in inhibiting melanin production in normally pigmented human melanocytes, suggesting potential for skin depigmentation therapies.

This study found that hexane extracts of Nostoc verrucosum significantly inhibited melanin synthesis in melanoma cells and demonstrated antioxidant activity, suggesting potential use in developing cosmetic and functional food products.

In this study, mangosteen pericarp water extract was found to significantly promote hair dermal papilla cell proliferation and enhance melanin synthesis in vitro, surpassing known melanogenic agents such as α-melanocyte stimulating hormone and forskolin in potency.

This study found that ginsenoside Rf from Panax ginseng may serve as an effective anti-pigmentation agent by inhibiting the CREB/MITF pathway, reducing melanogenesis in melanocytes and UV-irradiated human skin.

This study found that early pigment cell markers Sox10 and c-KIT, as well as DCT/TRP-2, were detectable in melanogenically-active melanocytes of the anagen bulb in human hair follicles.
