Luteolin 7-sulfate is isolated from Phyllospadix iwatensis Makino, a marine plant. Luteolin 7-sulfate attenuates TYR gene expression through the intervention of a cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB)- and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF)-mediated signaling pathway, leading to the decreased melanin synthesis[1].
