Abstract
The methanol extract of Houttuynia cordata repressed the expression of tyrosinase gene of Bl6 mouse melanoma cell containing tyrosinase promoter. The extract repressed expression of tyrosinase gene by about 13$\%$ and 45$\%$ at 10$\mu$g/mL and 100 $\mu$g/mL, respectively. In the MTT assay, the same extract exhibited very low cytotoxicity at 1$\mu$g/mL, 10$\mu$g/mL, and 100 $\mu$g/mL, respectively. The fractions of ethyl acetate, butyl alcohol, and water did not showed the repressive effect on the expression of tyrosinase gone, but methylene chloride fraction layer repressed highly at 10$\mu$g/mL and 100$\mu$g/mL.
