Revitalizing natural products for sustainable drug Discovery: Innovations bridging food bioscience and green therapeutic development
Natural products (NPs) and their derivatives have long served as essential sources of therapeutic agents, addressing global health challenges from cancer and infection to chronic metabolic diseases. Although interest in NP research had declined due to challenges in screening, characterization, and sustainable sourcing, recent breakthroughs in genomics, synthetic biology, metabolomics, and artificial intelligence (AI) have reinvigorated this field. This review presents an interdisciplinary framework that unites food bioscience, pharmacognosy, and green chemistry to advance sustainable NP-based drug discovery. Food bioscience contributes innovations such as foodomics, microbial fermentation, and waste biomass valorization. Pharmacognosy offers insights from ethnobotanical knowledge, chemo-taxonomy, and bioactivity-guided isolation, while green chemistry enables the adoption of eco-friendly solvents, biocatalysis, and scalable clean synthesis. Together, these domains support a systems-level approach to responsible resource extraction, bioactive characterization, and environment-safe therapeutic development. By aligning with the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry and UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we propose a unified roadmap for accelerating drug discovery while minimizing ecological impact and promoting social equity.
期刊介绍:
Sustainable Chemistry and Pharmacy publishes research that is related to chemistry, pharmacy and sustainability science in a forward oriented manner. It provides a unique forum for the publication of innovative research on the intersection and overlap of chemistry and pharmacy on the one hand and sustainability on the other hand. This includes contributions related to increasing sustainability of chemistry and pharmaceutical science and industries itself as well as their products in relation to the contribution of these to sustainability itself. As an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary journal it addresses all sustainability related issues along the life cycle of chemical and pharmaceutical products form resource related topics until the end of life of products. This includes not only natural science based approaches and issues but also from humanities, social science and economics as far as they are dealing with sustainability related to chemistry and pharmacy. Sustainable Chemistry and Pharmacy aims at bridging between disciplines as well as developing and developed countries.
