Description

N-Acetyl-4-S-cysteaminylphenol is a tyrosinase inhibitor that is used in the treatment of skin disorders such as melasma and vitiligo. It slows the production of melanin by inhibiting tyrosinase activity and may be useful for treating some types of skin cancer. N-Acetyl-4-S-cysteaminylphenol also inhibits the growth of tumor cells, but not normal cells, which may be due to its ability to inhibit protein synthesis. This compound has been shown to inhibit cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases and cellular processes associated with the proliferation of cancer cells.
