Melanosomes are lysosome-associated organelles that produce and accumulate melanin. Their biogenesis begins with the trafficking of melanogenic proteins from the endo-lysosomal system into non-pigmented vacuoles derived from endosomes. Subsequently, melanosome maturation proceeds with the export and...
Background: The excessive accumulation of melanosomes within keratinocytes contributes to skin hyperpigmentation and disrupts normal epidermal proliferation. Glabridin, an isoflavone derived from Glycyrrhiza glabra L., is a potent skin-lightening agent with tyrosinase-inhibitory activity. This study...
