✦ Synopsis


Hypericum species have been used as herbal remedies for the therapy of various neurological disorders. In the present study, the efTects of Hypericum culycinum on the central nervous system were investigated using various behavioural models including swimming time, locomotor activity, tail-flick and hole-board experiments. According to the results obtained, it was found that the extract prepared from H. culycinum is as effective as the antidepressant drugs, desipramine and trimipramine, which were used for comparison with this plant extract in animal models.

Ubiquitin (Ub) modification of different proteins plays an important role in many cellular processes. However, the best studied function of Ub is the labeling of proteins committed to rapid degradation, by an ATPdependent pathway. We previously found that this pathway is operative in the central ner
