Description
BackgroundHyperpigmentation disorders stem from tyrosinase-catalyzed melanin overproduction, worsened by ultraviolet oxidative stress. The native Chilean species Cryptocarya alba, Laurelia sempervirens, and Peumus boldus are sources of aporphine and benzylisoquinoline alkaloids, known for their antioxidant activity. Boldine derivatives, notably diacetylboldine (DAB, Lumiskin™), demonstrate commercial depigmenting efficacy, yet structure-activity relationship data are limited.
