Amorphigenin from <i>Amorpha fruticosa</i> L. Root Extract Induces Autophagy-Mediated Melanosome Degradation in mTOR-Independent- and AMPK-Dependent Manner

In this study, we investigated the depigmentation effect of <i>Amorpha fruticosa</i> L. root extract (RE), an herbal medicine. <i>A. fruticosa</i> RE significantly induced depigmentation in α-MSH-treated B16F10 cells at noncytotoxic concentrations. Further, the RE decreased t...
