Modern Biotechnological Approaches in the Study of Medicinal Plants

Medicinal plants have served as the cornerstone of human healthcare for centuries. With the growing demand for secondary metabolites, conventional extraction methods are becoming insufficient. This article explores modern biotechnological approaches, including metabolic engineering, CRISPR/Cas۹ genome editing, hairy root cultures, and omics technologies (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics). These strategies offer precise tools to enhance the yield of bioactive compounds, elucidate biosynthetic pathways, and ensure the sustainable production of high-value pharmaceuticals.
