Anti-tyrosinase, anti-cholinesterase and cytotoxic activities of extracts and phytochemicals from the Tunisian Citharexylum spinosum L.: Molecular docking and SAR analysis.

TLDR
Biological evaluation of the structure-activity relationship of Citharexylum spinosum L. tree showed that the EtOAc extract of the trunk bark displayed the highest anti-tyrosinase effect and the highest anticholinesterase activity, while the natural compounds that exhibited the significant bioactivities were docked.
