Ascorbyl tetra-2-hexyldecanoate is a lipophilic derivative of L-ascorbic acid that functions as a prostaglandin receptor inhibitor. This compound demonstrates protective effects on HaCaT keratinocytes, maintaining cell viability against UVB and oxidative stress while decreasing the production of inflammatory mediators IL-1α and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). In vivo studies show that topical application enhances epidermal thickness, increases stratum corneum hydration, and improves skin texture, highlighting its potential for formulating skin whitening agents in cosmetic applications.
