INHIBITORY EFFECTS OF Á-ARBUTIN ON MELANIN SYNTHESIS IN CULTURED HUMAN MELANOMA CELLS AND A THREE-DIMENSIONAL HUMAN SKIN MODEL.
We studied the inhibitory effects of 4-hydroxyphenyl á-glucopyranoside (á-arbutin) on melanogenesis in cultured human melanoma cells, HMV-II, and in a three-dimensional cultured human skin model. á-Arbutin showed no inhibitory effect on HMV-II cell growth at a concentration below 1.0 mM....
