A novel adamantyl benzylbenzamide derivative, AP736, suppresses melanogenesis through the inhibition of cAMP‐PKA‐CREB‐activated microphthalmia‐associated transcription factor and tyrosinase expression
Melanogenesis is essential for the protection of skin against UV, but excessive production of melanin causes unaesthetic hyperpigmentation. Much effort is being made to develop effective depigmenting… Expand

Inhibitory activity of novel kojic acid derivative containing trolox moiety on melanogenesis.
A novel kojic acid derivative containing a trolox moiety, (±)-5-hydroxy-4-oxo-4H-pyran-2-yl methyl 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylate (3a), was synthesized. The two biologically… Expand

NF-κB/AP-1-Targeted Inhibition of Macrophage-Mediated Inflammatory Responses by Depigmenting Compound AP736 Derived from Natural 1,3-Diphenylpropane Skeleton
AP736 was identified as an antimelanogenic drug that can be used for the prevention of melasma, freckles, and dark spots in skin by acting as a suppressor of melanin synthesis and tyrosinase… Expand

Chain-branched 1,3-dibenzylthioureas as vanilloid receptor 1 antagonists.
A series of chain-branched 1,3-dibenzylthiourea derivatives were synthesized, and tested their antagonist activity against vanilloid receptor 1. Chain-branching led to a significant change in the… Expand

Depigmenting activities of kojic acid derivatives without tyrosinase inhibitory activities.
We synthesized benzoate ester derivatives of kojic acid with and without adamantane moiety. Benzoate derivatives 2a-e that did not contain an adamantane moiety showed potent tyrosinase inhibitory… Expand
