Activation of MITF by Argan Oil Leads to the Inhibition of the Tyrosinase and Dopachrome Tautomerase Expressions in B16 Murine Melanoma Cells
Figure 2
Effect of argan oil on the expressions of the tyrosinase (TYR), tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TRP1), and dopachrome tautomerase (DCT) proteins determined by western blotting (a) and their densitometric values (b). B16 melanoma cells were cultured in 100 mm dish at a density of cells/dish and treated without (Con or CT) or with 1 µM hirsein A (HA) or 1/1000 v/v argan oil (AO).
