Total Synthesis of Hyperforin [PDF]
Hyperforin is the component of the medicinal herb St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) responsible for its antidepressant activity. It works by blocking the reuptake of a variety of neurotransmitters through a unique mechanism of action and may be a critical lead for the treatment of depression and possibly other human diseases.

Cellular neurobiology of hyperforin
AbstractHyperforin is a phloroglucinol derivative isolated from the medicinal plant Hypericum perforatum (St John's wort, SJW). This lipophilic biomolecule displays antibacterial, pro‐apoptotic, antiproliferative, and anti‐inflammatory activities. In addition, in vitro and in vivo data showed that hyperforin is a promising molecule with potential ...

Enantioselective Total Synthesis of Hyperforin [PDF]
A modular, 18-step total synthesis of hyperforin is described. The natural product was quickly accessed using latent symmetry elements, whereby a group-selective, Lewis acid-catalyzed epoxide-opening cascade cyclization was used to furnish the bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane core and set two key quaternary stereocenters.

Hyperforin Potentiates Antidepressant-Like Activity of Lanicemine in Mice [PDF]
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) modulators induce rapid and sustained antidepressant like-activity in rodents through a molecular mechanism of action that involves the activation of Ca2+ dependent signaling pathways.

Tetrahydrohyperforin and octahydrohyperforin are two new potent inhibitors of angiogenesis. [PDF]
We have previously shown that hyperforin, a phloroglucinol derivative found in St. John's wort, behaves as a potent anti-angiogenic compound. To identify the reactive group(s) mainly involved in this anti-angiogenic effect, we have investigated the anti ...
