Optogenetics is a cutting-edge technology that merges light control and genetics to achieve targeted of tissue cells. Compared traditional methods, optogenetics offers several advantages in terms time space precision, accuracy, reduced damage the research object. Currently, primarily used pathway research, drug screening, gene expression regulation, stimulation molecule release treat various diseases. The selection light-sensitive proteins most crucial aspect optogenetic technology; structural changes occur or downstream channels are activated signal transmission factor release, allowing efficient controllable disease treatment. In this review, we examine extensive conducted field biomedicine concerning optogenetics, including proteins, study carriers delivery devices, application Additionally, offer critical insights future implications realm clinical medicine.
