DISODIUM MALYL TYROSINATE.

Insufficient Data CAS 126139-79-5 / SKIN CONDITIONING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING

Disodium Malyl Tyrosinate is a derivative of L-tyrosine, a fundamental precursor in the biological pathway for melanin synthesis. It is investigated for its potential to modulate skin pigmentation, offering applications in both enhancing and reducing melanin production.

Summary

Pigment control Skin conditioning

Science

Mechanism of Action

This L-tyrosine derivative is theorized to interact with the melanin synthesis pathway, which is governed by L-tyrosine. L-tyrosine is essential for creating melanin, the pigment responsible for UV protection and skin color. Given that D-tyrosine and its peptides can inhibit melanin, Disodium Malyl Tyrosinate may influence melanocyte activity and melanin output, leading to effects ranging from tanning to skin lightening.
