[Introduction]: St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum L., Hypericaceae) is a shrubby perennial plant with numerous bright yellow flowers. It is commonly found in dry, gravelly soils, fields, and sunny places. It is estimated that almost all Americans will experience a form of depression at some point in their lives. While the cause is not full understood, nature has provided a remarkable herb, namely St. John’s Wort, which can help depression. In Germany, St. John’s Wort has a long history of use, particularly as a folk remedy in the treatment of wounds, kidney and lung ailments, and depression. Also the indications and usage approved by German Commission E include: Anxiety; Depressive moods; Inflammation of the skin; Blunt injuries; Wounds and burns.Hypericin, an anthracenedione present in Hypericum Perforatum (St. John’s Wort), is active in vitro against HIV. Hypericin is a weak inhibitor of monoamine oxidase, which may destroy dopamine in the brain and lead to low spirits. It has also been shown to inhibit re-uptake of several neurotransmitters, including serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline, GABA, and L-glutamate in the brain, and to reduce expression of interleukin-6. Each of these actions can contribute to alleviating low mood status by slowing the recycling of neurotransmitters needed for maintaining emotional balance. Flavonoids, hypericin, and pseudo-hypericin are the constituents thought to be associated with the benefits of St. John’s Wort. In particular, hypericin appears to be the active ingredients.
