MiRNA Sequencing Market Analysis

miRNAs are critical in identifying the progression, development, prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment response of cancer patients. Few miRNAs function as tumor suppressors, while others act as oncogenes. According to an article published in Advanced Pharmaceutical Bulletin in July 2023, miRNA acts as a target for cancer diagnosis. The assay has been identified as a potential prognostic factor in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) through miRNA profiling.  Furthermore, miRNAs have also shown application in forensic medicine due to their features such as stability and specificity capabilities. Hence, the rising adoption of miRNA sequencing assay is boosting the overall market growth.

MiRNA Sequencing Market Overview

North America is the largest market for miRNA Sequencing market growth with the US holding the largest market share followed by Canada. Asia Pacific registered the fastest growth.

MiRNA Sequencing Assay Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Adoption of miRNA Sequencing Assay in Disease Diagnosis Favors the Market

miRNAs plays an important role in the healthcare industry as miRNAs in circulation are considered promising biomarkers for the diagnosis of diseases, as well as in the prognosis. Moreover, the translation of miRNA-based therapy from a research setting to clinical application holds huge potential, which is acting as a driving factor for market growth. miRNAs can be efficiently utilized as biomarkers in diagnosing and prognosis cancers (ovarian, cervical, and breast), sepsis, cardiac diseases, and nervous system conditions.

Furthermore, miRNA assay also helps in the immune response regulation against infectious diseases, showing early changes at the onset of disease and before the pathogen detection. For instance, according to an article published in NCBI, in July 2021, COVID-19 and its early-stage diagnosis was identified with 99.9% accuracy by measuring miRNA (miR-195-5p, miR-23a-3p, and miR-423-5p). These potential applications of miRNA in diagnosing the COVID-19 virus are further propelling the market growth.

Ongoing Extensive Research on miRNA Sequencing Assay– An Opportunity in the MiRNA Sequencing Market

Extensive research related to miRNA assay has contributed to the market growth. For instance, researchers from the Université de Lyon developed BrumiR, an algorithm that can determine miRNAs and directly from sRNA-seq data. Additionally, Several academic institutes are taking the initiative to accelerate research related to miRNA sequencing and assay. For instance, the University of Manchester researchers created a database of miRNAs that have become an important resource in academia and the biotechnology industry. Such research activities pertaining to miRNA sequencing assay are boosting the market growth.
