Melanin, the pigment responsible for skin and hair color, is produced by melanocytes beneath the skin. The amino acid L-Tyrosine acts as a precursor for melanin synthesis through enzymatic reactions (Raper Mason pathway). Melanin comes in two forms: darker Eumelanin (black and brown) and lighter Pheomelanin (yellow-red). Controlling L-Tyrosine and L-DOPA levels is important for regulating melanin production (1).

In the presence of oxygen, the tyrosinase enzyme converts tyrosine into DOPA and then into DOPA-quinone. The presence or absence of cysteine determines whether the pathway leads to eumelanin (darker pigment) or pheomelanin (lighter pigment). Different skin types have variations in how melanosomes (where melanin is stored) degrade during keratinocyte differentiation, resulting in diverse skin colors and complexions. Disruptions in the melanin production process, caused by internal and external factors, can lead to hyperpigmentation disorders (1, 2).

Hyperpigmentation refers to various skin disorders characterized by dark patches or discoloration. Examples include melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and solar lentigines (sun and age spots). Melasma specifically presents as brown patches on the skin, often becoming more noticeable after sun exposure.

Multiple factors contribute to the development of hyperpigmentation. These include genetics, hormonal imbalances, pregnancy, exposure to UV radiation, stress, hormone therapy, certain medications, and cosmetics. Among these, genetic predisposition and sun exposure play crucial roles.

Melasma involves increased melanin deposition, presenting as brown patches on the face. It commonly affects women of childbearing age, with an onset between 30-55 years (1, 2).

The potential targets for the depigmenting and hyperpigmentation control agents include inhibitors of melanocyte stimulation, tyrosinase enzyme inhibitors, inhibitors of melanosome transfer, and degraders of formed melanin in keratinocytes. The widely targeted approach includes the inhibition of tyrosinase, most important rate-limiting enzyme of the melanogenesis pathway (1).

Role of each ingredient:

Glutathione:

Glutathione, a powerful antioxidant found within cells, plays a vital role in many physiological functions and now is getting recognized as a skin-lightening agent. It reduces hyperpigmentation by inhibiting the tyrosinase enzyme, blocking its activity, and interfering with melanin synthesis. It promotes phaeomelanin synthesis. Additionally, glutathione's antioxidant properties scavenge free radicals and protect against UV-induced damage. It also offers benefits such as wrinkle reduction, improved skin brightness, and anti-aging effects (2).

N-Acetyl L-Cysteine (NAC) :

Glutathione (GSH) is not easily absorbed when taken orally due to the action of an intestinal enzyme called γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT). To increase GSH levels, a strategy is to use N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a precursor to cysteine. Cysteine is essential for GSH synthesis. Studies have shown that NAC is well absorbed by the intestine and supplementation with NAC effectively raises GSH levels (3, 4).

ELLAGIC ACID:

Ellagic acid has both anti-fibrosis and antioxidant properties. It works by inhibiting the production of melanin, which is responsible for skin pigmentation, through its effect on an important enzyme called tyrosinase. When ellagic acid is taken orally, it has been found to have a skin-lightening effect on mild sunburn. In an animal study, ellagic acid was administered orally and showed a dose-dependent effect in reducing the number of melanocytes in the skin's outer layer. Furthermore, when humans were given orally administered pomegranate extract rich in ellagic acid, it demonstrated a protective effect against mild sunburn caused by exposure to UV radiation (5).

VITAMIN C:

Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant, plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis, offers photoprotection, reduces melanin production, acts as a free radical scavenger, and modulates the immune system. By interacting with copper ions at the active site of tyrosinase, vitamin C inhibits its action, resulting in reduced melanin formation. Additionally, vitamin C aids in the regeneration of glutathione, converting oxidized glutathione back into its active form (6, 7, 8).

VITAMIN B12:

People with severe hyperpigmentation in different areas of their skin often suffer from Vitamin B12 deficiency. It is hypothesized that Vitamin B12 deficiency affects melanin synthesis and transfer of melanin between melanocytes and keratinocytes, resulting in hyperpigmentation (9).

Vitamin E:

Vitamin C works synergistically with vitamin E to protect the skin from oxidative damage. It plays an important role in photoprotection & also inhibits UV-induced free radical damage to the skin. By working together, vitamins C and E provide enhanced antioxidant protection and help maintain the health and integrity of the skin (10).

Lycopene:

Lycopene, a natural antioxidant, has been extensively studied for its ability to protect against ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and effectively scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS). It has shown promise in reducing skin redness, improving skin appearance and pigmentation, and mitigating damage and aging caused by sunlight exposure. Lycopene-rich products can serve as internal sun protection and may have the potential as a nutraceutical for sun protection (11).
