Inhibitory and Acceleratory Effects of Inonotus obliquus on Tyrosinase Activity and Melanin Formation in B16 Melanoma Cells

Figure 7

(a) Inhibitory effects of Fa-a on tyrosinase activity in B16 melanoma cells. Lineweaver-Burk plots in the absence (control) or in the presence of Fa-a with L-DOPA as the substrate are shown. Concentrations of Fa-a for the curve 1–5 at 0, 25, 50, 100, and 180 μM, respectively. (b) represents the secondary plot of the slope of the straight lines versus concentration of Fa-a.
