摘要
2-Hydroxytyrosol(2-HT),originally reported as a synthetic compound,was isolated for the first time as a fungal metabolite.2-HT was found to inhibit mushroom tyrosinase with an IC_(50) value of 13.0 mmol/L.Furthermore,2-HT dose-dependently inhibited tyrosinase activity(IC_(50),32.5 mmol/L)in the cell-free extract of B16 melanoma cells andα-melanocyte stimulating hormone(α-MSH)-stimulated melanin formation in intact B16 melanoma cells.
