苯乙烯类化合物近年来已成为医学和植物生理学研究的热点，并已成为潜在影响人类健康的有前途的分子。二苯乙烯是由植物合成的相对简单的化合物，由苯丙氨酸/多钠酸盐途径衍生而来，该途径的最后一个也是关键酶是二苯乙烯合成酶。本文就二苯乙烯在植物中的生物学意义、合成途径及其在真菌和植物体内的代谢进行综述。将特别关注苯乙烯分子作为植物抗毒素的作用。
Stilbenic compounds recently have become the focus of a number of studies in medicine and plant physiology as well as have emerged as promising molecules that potentially affect human health. Stilbenes are relatively simple compounds synthesized by plants and deriving from the phenyalanine/polyrnalonate route, the last and key enzyme of this pathway being stilbene synthase. Here, we review the biological significance of stilbenes in plants together with their biosynthesis pathway and their metabolism both by fungi and in planta. Special attention will be paid to the role of stilbenic molecules as phytoalexins.
