Description:Protohypericin is a photosensitizer, which is a compound known for its ability to absorb light and induce a photodynamic response. This compound is derived from the plant Hypericum perforatum, commonly known as St. John's Wort. The primary mode of action of protohypericin involves the absorption of specific wavelengths of light, leading to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These ROS are capable of inducing cell death, primarily through mechanisms such as apoptosis and necrosis.
