(PharmaNewsWire.Com, November 19, 2019 ) The Rat Model Market is expanding with the increase in R&D activities in pharmaceutical industries. These rat models are being used in many applications such as toxicology, oncology, diabetes, neurology, immunology and infectious diseases, and others (rare disease, cardiovascular, metabolic disease, hematopoiesis, and regenerative medicines).
What the Market Looks Like?
Predicted to grow at a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period, the global Rat Model Market is estimated to reach USD 588.9 Million by the end of 2021.
On the basis of type, the Rat Model Market is segmented into outbred rats, inbred rats, knockout/genetically engineered rats, hybrid/congenic rats, conditioned/surgically modified rats, and immunodeficient rat’s model. Knockout/genetically engineered rat’s segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The high growth rate of knockout/genetically engineered rat’s segment can be attributed to the use of this type of rat model to carry out researches on disease such as oncology, obesity, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, drug abuse, anxiety, aging, and Parkinson’s.
On the basis of technology, the Rat Model Market is segmented into CRISPR, microinjection, embryonic stem cell injection, nuclear transfer technology, and others (genetically modified sperm-mediated gene transfer, Virus/vector-mediated gene transfer, Liposome-Mediated DNA Transfers, Electroporation of DNA, Biolistics, and TALENs & ZFN). The CRISPR segment accounted for the largest share of the Rat Model Market in 2016. The large share of this segment is mainly attributed to its ease of use and ability to multiply.
The growth of the global market for Rat Model is primarily influenced by the following factors:
• Advancements in Gene Editing Tools Set to Augment the Demand for Rat Models • Advantages Offered by Rats Over Mice • Continuous Support in the Form of Investments and Grants • Increased Demand for Personalized Humanized Rat Models Due to Growing Consumption of Personalized Medicines • Increase in R&D Activities Carried Out by Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Companies
DIABETES:
Rats are excellent experimental models for understanding the complex genetic basis of diseases such as diabetes. Due to the ever-increasing prevalence of diabetes globally; it has become important to study the mechanism of the disease. However, it is quite difficult to carry out research studies in human beings, owing to problems such as genetic heterogeneity and lack of controlled lifestyles. Rat models act as suitable models to study specific genetic mutations and to understand the function of genes on a homogeneous genetic background.
