Abstract

A methanolic extract and its ethyl acetate-soluble fraction from Sri Lankan curry-leaf, the leaves of Murraya koenigii, inhibited melanogenesis in theophylline-stimulated murine B16 melanoma 4A5 cells. Two new carbazole alkaloids, karapinchamines A and B, were isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction together with 12 known carbazole alkaloids. The structures of karapinchamines A and B were determined by physicochemical analyses. The principal alkaloid constituents were found to display potent melanogenesis inhibitory activity. The structural requirements of the carbazole alkaloids for melanogenesis inhibitory activity were discussed.
