Cytotoxicity and α‐Amylase Inhibitory Activities of Limonoids From the Leaves of Azadirachta indica
Three new limonoids are isolated from Azadirachta indica leaves and structurally characterized. These compounds display significant, broad‐spectrum cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines. The most potent analogue, azadiraindin I, demonstrates strong potential as a lead for anticancer drug development.

ABSTRACT Background Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the progressive destruction of melanocytes, resulting in depigmented skin macules. While traditionally viewed as a cutaneous disorder driven by a specific CD8+ T cell‐mediated interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) signature, emerging research suggests that vitiligo may be a systemic condition

Introduction: Melanin is a defense against UV radiation; however, it leads to significant cosmetic issues mainly melasma and hyperpigmentation. This study evaluated the potential effect of ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction of Centella asiatica extract in vitro inhibition activity against tyrosinase (TYR). Bioinformatics and in silico experiments were also

Effect of Calendula arvensis extract on anti-melanogenesis and antimicrobial activity
본 연구에서 금잔화(Calendula arvensis)에 대한 다양한 생리, 화학적 활성을 시험하여 기능성소재 가능성을 검토하였다. 금잔화 추출물은 낮은 세포독성을 나타냈다. 세포독성이 거의 없는 농도에서 금잔화 추출물 처리 시, 산화방지 활성, tyrosinase 활성저해 및 멜라닌 함량 저하를 보여주었다. 금잔화 추출물 농도에 따라 tyrosinase 단백질 발현이 억제되었으며, 이는 금잔화 추출물이 tyrosinase의 활성 및 단백질 발현을 억제시키거나 혹은 멜라노좀 수송 저해 등 다른 요인에 의해 멜라닌 합성을 저해하는 것으로 생각된다. 또한, 금잔화 추출물 처리 시, 항균활성이 나타남을 확인하였다.
