A method of identification of quinoline compounds (formula I) that modify melanin synthesis (melanogenesis), and the use of such compounds and compositions thereof to control (e.g., inhibit) melanin production are disclosed.
The compounds may be prepared as pharmaceutical compositions, and may be used for the prevention and treatment of conditions that are causally related to aberrant melanogenesis activity including by way of non-limiting example, pigmentation deficiencies (albinism) and hyperpigmentation and others.
