Anti-melanogenic effect of furanoeremophilanes identified from edible wild plants belonging to the genus Cacalia

Cacalia delphiniifolia and Cacalia hastata are edible wild plants in Japan. We found that these plants have anti-melanogenic activity in B16F10 mouse melanoma cells. Three furanoeremophilanes, cacalol (from C. delphiniifolia), dehydrocacalohastin, and cacalohastin (from C. hastata), were identified...

Description
Summary:Cacalia delphiniifolia and Cacalia hastata are edible wild plants in Japan. We found that these plants have anti-melanogenic activity in B16F10 mouse melanoma cells. Three furanoeremophilanes, cacalol (from C. delphiniifolia), dehydrocacalohastin, and cacalohastin (from C. hastata), were identified as the main active components. The genus Cacalia may be a good source of beneficial materials with anti-melanogenic effects.
