Valerian is native to Europe and Asia, but now grows in most parts of the world. Valeriana officinalis is the most commonly known and studied, but approximately 200 species are known (figure 6.1) (Kowalchick and Hylton 1987). Unless otherwise specified, the name valerian will be used here to refer to V. officinalis. Valerian grows 50 to 100 cm in height, with an erect stem with pinnate leaves and numerous small pink-white flowers at the top. The parts of the plant used medicinally are the roots and rhizome (figure 6.2). [Pg.214]

The content of valepotriates and sesquiterpenes varies across species of the Valeriana genus. For example, Valeriana officinalis has relatively high content of sesquiterpenes and low content of valepotriates, while Valeriana edulis has a high proportion of valepotriates and low content of sesquiterpenes (Lindahl and Lindwall 1989). [Pg.216]

Opioid A recent study has shown activity of hypericum extracts at opioid receptors (Simmen et al. 1998). Extracts displace naloxone from p and x opioid receptors in the micromolar range (IC50 25 and 90 pg/ml, respectively). In contrast, extracts of the sedative herb Valeriana officinalis do not have this effect. This effect is due to unidentified constituents and not by the flavonoids quercetin or kaemferol. Opioids are known to have effects on emotion, so it is conceivable that activity of hypericum at p and k receptors contributes to its therapeutic effects (Gerra et al. 1998 Tejedor-Real et al. 1995 Walker and Zacny 1998). Although they are not conventional treatment for depression, opioids such as buprenorphine have been effective in treatment of refractory depression (Bodkin et a. 1995). However, for any further conclusions to be drawn, it would be necessary to further e uddate the opioid effects of hypericum to determine what functional effect, if any, hypericum has on the receptors. [Pg.265]

Valerian oil is obtained by steam distillation of well-dried ground roots of Valeriana officinalis L. (Valerianaceae). It is a yellow-green to yellow-brown liquid with an extremely strong, characteristic, penetrating odor. The oil becomes dark and viscous on aging or on exposure to air. [Pg.223]
