Abstract:
Isatidis Radix,the root of Isatis indigotica Fort.(Cruciferae),is a representitive herb widely used for clearing away heat-toxin in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).Lariciresinol is a representitive component of lignans and an important efficacious substance with the antiviral effect.This review elucidated the progress on its biosynthetic pathways,the screening of key regulatory genes and metabolic engineering of lignans components in Isatidis Radix,providing a favorable reference for the full understanding of biosynthesis of antiviral active components,the quality improvement of Isatidis Radix and the sustainable utilization of TCM resources.
