Abstract

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.
