Cell expansion is an effective technology that finds its application in several biologics sectors, specifically R&D and disease treatment. The global cell expansion market is expected to reach US$ 42,837.11 million in 2027 from US$ 11,929.43 million in 2018. The market is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 15.6% from 2019–2027.
Tissue engineering is as recent as a quarter of a century old. Despite its infancy, the technique's eminence spread like wildfire. It soon branched into regenerative medicine and planted itself as the most competent defense against a plethora of chronic diseases. It has proven efficient in every arena, from healing injured tissue to damaged organs. While they find maximum utilization in transplantation and disease treatment, this technique has important applications in R&D as well as across various segments of health care. Cell expansion and regenerative medicine techniques have swiftly made their way into drug development, drug screening, vaccine development, cell microbiology research, and treating diseases that were assumed untreatable until now, such as rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes. Automated systems decrease the need for a skilled workforce and the cost sustained. Growth in incidences of chronic diseases is a key factor that drives the growth of the global cell expansion market. This goes hand in hand with the rise in government focus and investments for cell-based research and an increased focus on cell-based technologies for
With a shocking increase in infectious diseases and cancer patients, the need of the hour is to find an immediate solution to minimize their negative effects. These diseases are cropping up around the globe, creating an enticing opportunity for the growth of the cell expansion market. Another option that can be explored is drug discovery, but the time commitment required and the improbability of these drugs' success have given the global cell expansion market an advantage, attracting significant investment from the market players.
Regenerative medicine has the potential to replace or heal tissues ad even damaged organs. Regeneration techniques are used to develop the tissue, involving cell expansion procedures. It helps to study the potential treatment for injuries and diseases. These ailments could be anything on the spectrum, from broken bones to neurodegenerative diseases. As we are beginning to understand the possibilities that open up by using such an advanced science application, there is a definitive rise in the adoption of regenerative medicines. This is the foyer for the increasing growth of the global cell expansion market. The technique is flexible in using various types of stem cells, such as adult, embryonic, and induced pluripotent cells. New drugs developed by pharmaceutical companies can be tested safely and effectively using differentiated stem cells. Furthermore, regenerative medicines using cell-based models have the potential to help researchers in early-intervention treatment. The vast possibilities of the cell expansion technique in medicine and research are expected to propel the global cell expansion market growth.
Cancer is one of the major causes of human death worldwide. Even if a person does not face imminent death due to the travesty, they still have to deal with the emotional and physical scars it imparts. The general quality of life for such an individual decreases considerably. The most devastating aspect of this situation is that we have been a failure at curing this condition. However, regenerative medicine and cell-based methodologies have acted as a breath of fresh air. The path of cell expansion and regenerative medicine has carved a path that might lead us to alleviate this disease's hold on our community. The ever-increasing prevalence of cancer patients, attributed to their lifestyle, results in more exposure to oncogenic factors than ever before. In addition, a rise in life expectancy raises the risk of cancer and has led to an increased need to employ cell-based therapies. This is acting like an accelerator for the global cell expansion market growth.
Despite cell culture's crucial role in biological and medicinal research, enough evidence has been established that cell cultures are frequently contaminated by microorganisms or other cells.This hinders research activities, wherein drugs are initially tested on a tumor cell line. Further, some unreliable results are obtained, causing delays in the effective treatment. Also, it has been observed that using a pipette more than once while working with different cell cultures can lead to cross-contamination. If the contaminated cells multiply more rapidly than original cells, they can quickly dominate the population, altering the identity of the culture. Such events often go undetected as the cells from different sources may also be morphologically similar. Cells can undergo chromosomal duplications or rearrangements, mutations, and epigenetic changes that modify their phenotypes.
Based on product, the global cell expansion market is segmented into consumables and instruments, of which the consumables segment dominated the market in 2018 with the largest revenue share and is also speculated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Lab consumables used in research proceedings measure, analyze and verify unproven quantities, properties, and characteristics of elements. The segment is expected to retain its dominance due to rising research in regenerative and personalized medicine.
The instrument segment constitutes centrifuges, cell counters, flow cytometers, and automated cell expansion systems. The cell expansion supporting instruments provide an aseptic environment during expansion process. Industrial-scale bioreactors avail reproducibility to achieve stable stem cell proliferation. Technological advancements and product launches made by the market players are expected to fuel the segmental growth over the forecast period.
