Hypericin is a pigment present in the widely distributed medicinal plant Hypericum perforatum L. (Hypericaceae). In our research, hypericin was found to be an inhibitor of NADPH/Fe 2+ induced microsomal lipid peroxidation and NADPH-dependent lucigenin chemiluminescence emission in vitro. Hypericin also inhibited the microsomal CYP1Adependent 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) which participa...

Gastric ulcer is a serious condition that results from the wearing/tearing of stomach mucosa. A physiological equilibrium maintained between mucosal defense and aggressive factors. In this study, effectiveness medicinal plants (Hypericum perforatum) in management gastric was compared to omeprazole, well-known drug for ulcer.

The essential oil isolated from fresh aerial parts of Hypericum perforatum L. was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. One hundred and thirty four identified compounds accounted for 98.7% of the total oil. The main components of the oil were: germacrene D (18.6%), (E)-caryophyllene (11.2%), 2-methyloctane (9.5%), α-pinene (6.5%), bicyclogermacrene (5.0%) and (E)-β-ocimene (4.6%). The volatile profile of H...
