The objectives of this study were to investigate the melanogenetic potentials of the naturally occurring 7-hydroxy coumarin derivatives 7-hydroxy 5,6-dimethoxycoumarin (7H-5,6DM), 7-hydroxy 6,8-dimethoxycoumarin (7H-6,8DM), 7-hydroxy 6-methoxycoumarin (7H-6M), and 7-hydroxy 4-methylcoumarin (7H-4M) in the melanogenic cells model for murine B16F10 melanoma cells. The initial results indicated that melanin production and intracellular tyrosinase activity were significantly stimulated by 7H-4M but not by 7H-5,6DM, 7H-6,8DM, or 7H-6M. Therefore, our present study further investigated the melanogenic effects of 7H-4M in B16-F10 cells, as well as its mechanisms of action. In a concentration-dependent manner, 7H-4M increased intracellular tyrosinase activity, leading to the accumulation of melanin without affecting the viability of B16-F10 cells. Our study further investigated the effects of 7H-4M on melanogenesis, including its ability to promote tyrosinase activity, increase melanin content, and activate molecular signaling pathways. The results indicate that 7H-4M effectively stimulated tyrosinase activity and significantly increased the expression of melanin synthesis-associated proteins, such as microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP1), and TRP2. Based on our findings, we can conclude that 7H-4M has the ability to activate the melanogenesis process through the upregulation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and the cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB). Additionally, our study showed that 7H-4M induced melanogenic effects by downregulating the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and the phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/glycogen synthesis kinase-3β (GSK-3β) cascades, while upregulating the JNK and p38 signaling pathways. Finally, the potential of using 7H-4M in topical applications was tested through primary human skin irritation tests. During these tests, no adverse reactions were induced by 7H-4M. In summary, our results indicate that 7H-4M regulates melanogenesis through various signaling pathways such as GSK3β/β-catenin, AKT, PKA/CREB, and MAPK. These findings suggest that 7H-4M has the potential to prevent the development of pigmentation diseases.
