Abstract

The analytical composition of the constituents with major biological interest of herbal drug St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) and their chromatographical analyses and medical importance of extracts are studied in this review. There are many studies about efficacy of St.John’s Wort. Hypericum perforatum is a medicinal plant traditionaly used, both externally and internally, in all Europe for many pathologists. In the last two decades many studies have proved the efficacy of some St.John’s Wort extracts in mild to moderate depression and it has been successful as an antidepresant both in Europe and the US. In recent years increased interest in hypericin which is active constituent of St.John’s Wort, as a potential anticancer agent has arisen since several studies established its power.

Özet

Bu incelemede, kantaronun (Hypericum perforatum L., Eng. St. John’s Wort) analitik kompozisyonu, biyolojik olarak önemli olan bileşenleri ve onların kromatografik analizleri ve tıbbi yönden önemi hakkında yapılmış olan çalışmalar değerlendirilmiştir. Kantaronun etkinliği hakkında bir çok çalışma mevcuttur. Kantaron Avrupada pek çok patalog tarafından harici ve dahili olarak kullanılan geleneksel bir tibbi bitkidir. Son yirmi yılda, bazı kantaron ekstraktlarının hafif ve orta şiddetteki depresyonun tedavisindeki etkinliği isbat edilmiş ve bu yüzden kantaron ekstraktları antidepresan olarak hem Avrupada ve hem de A.B.D. de kullanılmaktadır. Son yıllarda, kantaronun aktif bileşeni olan hiperisinin etkisini ortaya koyan çeşitli çalışmalar nedeniyle, potansiyel antikanserojen ajan olarak hiperisine ilgi artmıştır.
