hypericin is a lipid of Polyketides (PK) class. Hypericin is associated with abnormalities such as Dermatitis, Phototoxic, Dehydration, Photosensitization, Morphologically altered structure and Myocardial Infarction. The involved functions are known as Cell Cycle Checkpoints, Apoptosis, Acetylation, Cell Survival and Caspase Activation. Hypericin often locates in insoluble fraction, Cytoplasmic matrix, Protoplasm, Tissue membrane and Cytoplasm. The associated genes with hypericin are CDC37 gene, HSPA8 gene, RAF1 gene, cyclin H and FK228. The related lipids are Phosphatidylserines.
To understand associated biological information of hypericin, we collected biological information of abnormalities, associated pathways, cellular/molecular locations, biological functions, related genes/proteins, lipids and common seen animal/experimental models with organized paragraphs from literatures.
hypericin is suspected in Dermatitis, Phototoxic, Photosensitization, Pneumonia, Psoriasis, Phototoxicity, Chronic infectious disease and other diseases in descending order of the highest number of associated sentences.
