Plant Secondary Metabolites: Phenolics

Plants have an astounding ability to utilize complex biosynthetic pathways to create a wide array of products, each serving its own special role in basic support of life (e.g., for energy or building blocks) and also for enhancing the likelihood of survival and reproduction – such as for resource competition or defense. Over time, humans and animals have learned to harness many of these plant compounds, referred to as metabolites, to serve their own needs. The aim of this lesson is to introduce you to the major classes of medically relevant plant metabolites and discuss some of the basic mechanisms underlying their pharmacological action. We’ll take a deep dive into one of the largest classes of plant compounds – the phenolics, and address other classes in other lessons. *** This is a mini-lesson for the Botanical Medicine and Health course developed and taught by Dr. Cassandra Quave at Emory University in the Center for the Study of Human Health.
