Natural and synthetic flavonoid derivatives as new potential tyrosinase inhibitors: a systematic review

TL;DR: This review article is oriented to provide an insight and a deeper understanding of the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of an array of natural and bioinspired phenolic compounds with special emphasis on flavonoids to demonstrate how the position of ring substituents and their interaction with tyosinase could be correlated with their effectiveness or lack thereof against inhibiting the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparing the inhibitory abilities of epigallocatechin-3-gallate and gallocatechin gallate against tyrosinase and their combined effects with kojic acid.

TL;DR: In this article, the inhibitory mechanism of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) and gallocatechin gallate (GCG) on tyrosinase was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A systematic review of synthetic tyrosinase inhibitors and their structure-activity relationship.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically summarized the advances of synthetic tyrosinase inhibitors in the literatures, including their inhibitory activity, cytotoxicity, structure-activity relationship (SAR), inhibition kinetics, and interaction mechanisms with the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Piperazine skeleton in the structural modification of natural products: a review.

TL;DR: Piperazine is a cyclic molecule containing two nitrogen atoms in positions 1 and 4, as well as four carbon atoms as discussed by the authors and is one of the most sought heterocyclics for the development of new drug candidates with a wide range of applications.

Design, synthesis, and anticancer activity of novel 4-thiazolidinone-phenylaminopyrimidine hybrids

TL;DR: A novel series of 5-benzylidene-2-arylimino-4-thiazolidinone derivatives containing phenylaminopyrimidine core were designed, synthesized, and tested for their anticancer activity on K562, PC3, and SHSY-5Y cells and their promising anticancer activities were reported.

Crystal structure of Agaricus bisporus mushroom tyrosinase: identity of the tetramer subunits and interaction with tropolone.

TL;DR: The first structure of the full fungal tyrosinase complex from the mushroom Agaricus bisporus is presented, explaining how calcium ions stabilize the tetrameric state of the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetics of mushroom tyrosinase inhibition by quercetin

TL;DR: The inhibition mechanism obtained from Lineweaver-Burk plots show that quercetin is a competitive inhibitor, and the microscopic rate constants were determined for the reaction of quercETin with the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

First structures of an active bacterial tyrosinase reveal copper plasticity

TL;DR: It is suggested that residues R209 and V218, situated in a second shell of residues surrounding the active site, play a role in substrate binding orientation based on their flexibility and position, which lends further support to a previously suggested mechanism by which monophenolic substrates dock mainly to CuA.
