Özet

Ekvator kuşağından kuzeyde İskandinav ülkelerine kadar dünyanın farklı coğrafyalarında yayılış gösteren 482 Hypericum türü bulunmaktadır. Bu türler dünya genelinde halk ilacı olarak yüzyıllardan bu yana sinir hastalıkları, adet krampları, siyatik, eklem iltihabı ve midevi rahatsızlıklardan kaynaklanan ağrıların giderilmesinde ve bazı cilt hastalıklarının tedavisinde kullanılmaktadır. Hypericum türleri içerisinde en yaygın ve popüler olanı Hypericum perforatum L.'dur. Bu tür son 30 yıldan beri bitki klinik ve laboratuar şartlarında yoğun olarak çalışılmakta olup günümüzde bilhassa depresyon tedavisinde yoğun olarak kullanılmaktadır. Ülkemizde kantaron, binbirdelik otu, kan otu, kılıç otu, yaraotu, kuzukıran gibi yöresel adlarla bilinen Hypericum türleri bakımından önemli bir merkezdir ve mevcut 96 türün 46'sı endemiktir. Ancak dünya literatürünün aksine bu türler ile ilgili ülkemiz şartlarında yürütülen çalışmaların sayısı oldukça azdır. Ayrıca bu bitkiler tür ayrımı gözetmeksizin doğal floradan ihraç maksadıyla yoğun bir şekilde toplanmaktadır. Bu derlemede ülkemiz için atıl bir kaynak durumunda olan Hypericum türleri ve kullanımı hakkında detaylı bilgi sunmak amaçlanmıştır
