Magnolin Enhances Melanogenesis in Melanoma Cells and Three-Dimensional Human Skin Equivalent

Magnoliae Flos is a traditional herbal medicine used to treat nasal congestion associated with headache, empyema, and allergic rhinitis. In our preliminary screening of crude drugs used in Japanese Kampo formulas for melanin synthesis, the methanol extract of Magnoliae Flos was found to exhibit stro...
