Biosynthesis of the Active Hypericum perforatum Constituents
Extracts from Hypericum perforatum (St. John’s wort; Clusiaceae) are widely used for the treatment of mild to moderate depression. Four classes of constituents – hyperforins, hypericins, flavonoids, and xanthones – appear to contribute to the antidepressant activity. Interestingly, all four classes of secondary metabolites involve polyketide derivatives. Key reactions of their biosyntheses are ...
متن کاملTranscriptomic analyses on muscle tissues of Litopenaeus vannamei provide the first profile insight into the response to low temperature stress
The Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) is an important cultured crustacean species worldwide. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism of this species involved in the response to cold stress. In this study, four separate RNA-Seq libraries of L. vannamei were generated from 13°C stress and control temperature. Total 29,662 of Unigenes and overall of 19,619 annotated genes ...
متن کاملTransgenic Hypericum perforatum.
Plant transformation is an important tool with many applications in modern plant biology. Although this technique is primarily used to produce superior crop varieties, it is also being utilized to answer basic questions concerning gene function and regulation in contemporary functional genomics research. In our laboratory, we have established a transformation system for Hypericum perforatum. Th...
متن کاملComparative physiological and transcriptomic analyses provide integrated insight into osmotic, cold, and salt stress tolerance mechanisms in banana
The growth, development, and production of banana plants are constrained by multiple abiotic stressors. However, it remains elusive for the tolerance mechanisms of banana responding to multiple abiotic stresses. In this study, we found that Fen Jiao (FJ) was more tolerant to osmotic, cold, and salt stresses than BaXi Jiao (BX) by phenotypic and physiological analyses. Comparative transcriptomic...
متن کاملSt John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) Photomedicine: Hypericin-Photodynamic Therapy Induces Metastatic Melanoma Cell Death
Hypericin, an extract from St John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.), is a promising photosensitizer in the context of clinical photodynamic therapy due to its excellent photosensitizing properties and tumoritropic characteristics. Hypericin-PDT induced cytotoxicity elicits tumor cell death by various mechanisms including apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy-related cell death. However, limited rep...
