Popis: Tyrosinase is a key enzyme in melanin synthesis, catalyzing the initial rate-limiting steps of melanin synthesis. Abnormal and excessive melanin synthesis is the primary cause of serious skin disorders including melasma, senile lentigo, freckles, and age spots. In attempts to find potent and safe tyrosinase inhibitors, we designed and synthesized a novel compound, (Z)-3-(3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzylidene)thiochroman-4-one (MHY1498), and evaluated its tyrosinase inhibitory activity in vitro and in silico. The chemical structures of (Z)-3-benzylidenethiochroman-4-one analogues, including the novel compound MHY1498, were rationally designed and synthesized as hybrid structures of reported potent tyrosinase inhibitors, which were confirmed both in vitro and in vivo: (Z)-5-(substituted benzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-diones (Compound A) and 2-(substituted phenyl)benzo[d]thiazoles (Compound B). During screening, MHY1498 showed a strong dose-dependent inhibitory effect on mushroom tyrosinase. The IC50 value of MHY1498 (4.1 ± 0.6 μM) was significantly lower than that of the positive control, kojic acid (22.0 ± 4.7 μM). In silico molecular multi-docking simulation and inhibition mechanism studies indicated that MHY1498 interacts competitively with the tyrosinase enzyme, with greater affinity for the active site of tyrosinase than the positive control. Furthermore, in B16F10 melanoma cells treated with α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, MHY1498 suppressed both melanin production and tyrosinase activity. In conclusion, our data demonstrate that MHY1498, a synthesized novel compound, effectively inhibits tyrosinase activity and has potential for treating hyperpigmentation and related disorders.
