(PharmaNewsWire.Com, August 04, 2017 ) According to the report Global Stem Cell Market, published by Market Data Forecast, the global market is projected to reach USD 30.19 billion by 2021 from USD 15.82 billion in 2016, at a CAGR of 13.8% from 2016 to 2021.
Stem Cell Market therapy, also known as regenerative medicine, promotes the reparative response of diseased, dysfunctional or injured tissue using stem cells or their derivatives. It is the next chapter of organ transplantation and uses cells instead of donor organs, which are limited in supply.
Researchers grow stem cells in a lab. These stem cells are manipulated to specialize into specific types of cells, such as heart muscle cells, blood cells or nerve cells.
The specialized cells can then be implanted into a person. For example, if the person has heart disease, the cells could be injected into the heart muscle. The healthy transplanted heart cells could then contribute to repairing defective heart muscle.
Researchers have already shown that adult bone marrow cells guided to become heart-like cells can repair heart tissue in people, and more research is ongoing.
Some of the key drivers of stem cell market are improved funding from various government and private organizations for research and development for unmet medical needs, growing industry attention on stem cell research, and increasing global awareness about stem cell therapies. Development of cutting-edge genomic techniques for stem cell analysis, and increasing approvals for clinical trials of stem cell therapy are other factors that are propelling the growth of the market. While on the other hand, ethical issues are involved in the stem cells research and strict regulations to conduct trials on humans are some of the restraining factors. Also factors such as lack of required infrastructure and complications associated with the preservation of stem cell are limiting the growth of the stem cells market.
The most well-established and widely used stem cell treatment is the transplantation of blood stem cells to treat diseases and conditions of the blood and immune system, or to restore the blood system after treatments for specific cancers. The US National Marrow Donor Program has a full list of diseases treatable by blood stem cell transplant. More than 26,000 patients are treated with blood stem cells in Europe each year.
Since the 1980s, skin stem cells have been used to grow skin grafts for patients with severe burns on very large areas of the body. Only a few clinical centres are able to carry out this treatment and it is usually reserved for patients with life-threatening burns.
Stem cells have tremendous promise to help us understand and treat a range of diseases, injuries and other health-related conditions. Their potential is evident in the use of blood stem cells to treat diseases of the blood, a therapy that has saved the lives of thousands of children with leukemia; and can be seen in the use of stem cells for tissue grafts to treat diseases or injury to the bone, skin and surface of the eye. Important clinical trials involving stem cells are underway for many other conditions and researchers continue to explore new avenues using stem cells in medicine.
There is still a lot to learn about stem cells, however, and their current applications as treatments are sometimes exaggerated by the media and other parties who do not fully understand the science and current limitations, and also by clinics looking to capitalize on the hype by selling treatments to chronically ill or seriously injured patients.
Global Stem Cell market: Region-wise Outlook
On the basis of geography, the global market is analysed under various regions namely North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Middle-East & Africa. As of now, North America region dominates the global stem cells market. Europe comes next. However, the Asia-Pacific stem cell therapy market is expected to grow the fastest in this forecast period, mainly because of better regulatory support through encouraging government policies and increasing awareness among the public.
