CLINICAL DATA

 Pharmacology  

Glutathione is an ubiquitous compound found in our bodies. Aside from its many ascribed biologic functions, it has also been implicated in skin lightening or whithening. We review invitro and in vivo studies that show evidence of its involvement in the melanogenic pathway and shed light on he ist anti-melanogenic effect. Proposed mechanisms of action include:

Direct inactivation of the enzyme tyrosinase by binding with copper-containing active site of the enzyme.

Mediating the switch mechanism from eumelanin to phaeomelanin production.Direct inactivation of the enzyme tyrosinase by binding with copper-containing active site of the enzyme.

Quenching of free radicals an peroxides that contribute to tyrosinase activation and melanin formation.

Modulation of depigmenting abilities of melanocytotoxic agents.

All these concepts supported by various experimental evidence form basis for future research in the use of glutathione in the treatment of pigmentary disorders and in general lightening agent.
