A study conducted for the evaluation of the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of 2.4.3'.5'-Tetrahydroxy-bibenzyl using L- Dopa as substrate performed kojic acid was used as standard and compared its activity with oxyresveratrol. The IC50 values observed were 12.7, 133.4 and 1.6 muM respectively for Oxyresveratrol, kojic acid and Dihydro Oxyresveratrol.

Comparison of the IC50 Values shows that Dihydro Oxyresveratrol has about 8 times more inhibitory activity than the Parent compound, Oxyresveratrol.

The compound , oxyresveratrol and kojic acid inhibited the enzyme in a dose dependent manner Dihydroxy oxyresveratrol is an established noncompetitive inhibitor of tyrosinase. A comparative study of the two compounds on their Km values shows 5 fold higher affinity to the enzyme of Dihydro Oxyresveratrol than oxyresveratrol.

A comparative account of the cytotoxicity study establish the compound to be devoid of cytotoxicity to human cells such as KB, BC, NCI-H 187.

Graph 1

Dose dependent inhibitory effect on tyrosinase by Dihydro Oxyresveratrol, Oxyresveratrol and Kojic acid.

Samples shown are Oxyresveratrol (Circle), Tetra hydro oxy bibenzyl (triangle) and Kojic acid (diamond). Effects on tyrosinase activity by the samples as a function of concentration are represented as inhibition % , means ± S.E of three independent tests.

Graph 2

Kinetic studies conducted on Dihydro Oxyresveratrol in comparison with oxyresveratrol to measure the ability to inhibit mushroom tyrosinase with L'Dopa as substrate,.

Data were obtained as mean values of I/V, inverse of the increase of absorbance at the wave length 490 mm per minute (∆A490/ min) , with different concentrations of L Dopa as substrate. Inhibitors of the enzyme were tetrahydro bibenzyl with 2.4 Mm( triangle ∆) , 1.2 Mm ( circle O) and No bibenzyl ( circle O)

The observed Km value and V max establish the product as a non competitive inhibitor of tyrosinase on L Dopa. The Ki value obtained in the study establish the compound Dihydro Oxyresveratrol has 5 fold higher affinity to the enzyme than oxyresveratrol.
