Aloesin
Aloesin is a C-glycosylchromone isolated from Aloe species that acts as a tyrosinase inhibitor (IC50 = 0.9 mM), blocking melanin synthesis. It is widely used in dermatological research to study skin pigmentation mechanisms and as a reference compound in both in vitro enzymatic assays and in vivo models of hyperpigmentation.
