Rhododendrol is a natural phenolic compound that has been reported to prevent high-fat diet-induced elevation in body weight and to increase lipolysis in white adipocytes in male mice. RK has shown potential to increase dermal IGF-I production through sensory neuron activation, promoting hair growth and increasing skin elasticity.
Rhododendrol, a phenolic compound contained in lightening/whitening cosmetics, can bind and inhibit tyrosinase and was reported to induce leukoderma in Japan. Only 2% of the cosmetics users are affected, and tacrolimus is effective in treatment of the condition. To test
Rhododendrol is a phenolic compound that shows a tyrosinase-dependent toxicity for melanocytes and occasionally induces a vitiligo-like skin depigmentation. The post-tyrosinase mechanisms determining melanocyte death or survival, however, are far from clear. Here, we find that rhododendrol treatment leads to

Rhododendrol (4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanol) has been used as a lightening/whitening cosmetic but was recently reported to induce leukoderma. Although rhododendrol has been shown to be transformed by tyrosinase to hydroxyl-rhododendrol, which is cytotoxic to melanocytes, its detailed mechanism of action including the
Rhododendrol, an inhibitor of melanin synthesis developed for lightening/whitening cosmetics, was recently reported to induce a depigmentary disorder principally at the sites of repeated chemical contact. Rhododendrol competitively inhibited mushroom tyrosinase and served as a good substrate, while it also
