Fig. 3From: Soft corals collected from Jeju Island inhibits the α-MSH-induced melanogenesis in B16F10 cells through activation of ERKEffects of D. puetteri ethanolic extract (DPE) on the tyrosine production in B16F10 cells. B16F10 cells were cultured with DPE for 48 h. After incubation, tyrosinase activity was evaluated using l-DOPA oxidation assay. Tyrosinase content of the cells are presented as a percentage of non-treated group. Data points and bars represent the arithmetic means ± SEM (n = 3). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01Back to article page
