“…To understand the mechanism by which 1c inhibits enzymatic activity of tyrosinase, we conducted in silico molecular docking simulation using AutoDock 4.2 software (SantaFe, NM, USA). Kojic acid has been widely used as a selective competitive inhibitor in numerous studies [ 33 , 34 ]. The docking simulation was effective with significant scores.…”

“…In addition, Melanogenesis is described to result in the generation of free radicals like hydrogen peroxide in the melanocytes which again result in oxidative stress. Therefore ROS plays a significant role in the regulation of melanin synthesis and so ROS scavengers help in reduce the UV-induced melanogenesis [5]. Hyperpigmentation can be reduced by free radical scavengers and tyrosinase inhibitors that suppress melanogenesis in the skin [6].…”

“…Indeed, a previous report has shown that essential oil of Zingiber officinale rhizome contains numerous bioactive components, such as α-pinene, valencene, and zingiberene [ 21 ]. Moreover, anti-melanogenic effects of α-pinene and valencene have also been observed in B16F10 mouse melanoma cells [ 22 , 23 ]. In addition, melanogenesis-inhibitory effect of [ 6 ]-shogaol, the major shogaol in Zingiber officinale rhizomes, has been observed to be through acceleration of ERK1/2-mediated MITF degradation [ 24 ].…”
