contents Potential Use of Marine Plants as a Source of Bioactive Compounds. Ribas-Taberner, Maria Del Mar Mir-Rossello, Pere Miquel Gil, Lorenzo Sureda, Antoni Capó, Xavier Humans Aquatic Organisms Animals Plant Extracts Antioxidants Phytochemicals Anti-Inflammatory Agents Alismatales Hypoglycemic Agents Biological Products The search for bioactive natural compounds, traditionally focused on terrestrial environments, has increasingly expanded to the seas and oceans, opening new frontiers for exploration. Among the diverse organisms inhabiting these ecosystems, marine phanerogams have emerged as a promising source of health-promoting bioactive compounds. This review highlights the distinctive chemical diversity of seagrasses including species such as , , and among others, and focusses on the growing interest in natural therapies as alternatives to conventional pharmaceuticals. Compounds such as polysaccharides or secondary metabolites such as polyphenol and flavonoids produced by marine plants exhibit a broad range of beneficial properties, including anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and antidiabetic qualities. This review describes how these compounds can mitigate inflammation, promote skin health, and combat oxidative stress. Moreover, certain marine extracts have demonstrated potential to inhibit cancer cell growth and improve metabolic disorders like obesity and diabetes. The manuscript also discusses the potential of marine plant extracts in the development of novel therapeutic agents to address various illnesses, including infections, chronic diseases, and metabolic disorders. It emphasizes the need for further research to fully elucidate the mechanisms underlying the activity of these bioactive compounds and their potential therapeutic applications. In summary, this study highlights marine plants as a valuable reservoir for identifying organic molecules, paving the way for innovative advancements in medical and healthcare interventions.
