plant-derived-medicine
Plant-derived medicine is the study and application of bioactive compounds extracted from plants for use in treating human diseases and health conditions. Plants produce a vast array of secondary metabolites—including alkaloids, terpenoids, and flavonoids—that have evolved as chemical defenses but also hold significant pharmacological potential. Understanding the biosynthetic pathways behind these compounds is a central goal of plant science, enabling researchers to optimize production, improve yields, and develop sustainable sources of therapeutic agents.
