Stem cells are basically cells with the capacity to turn into different kinds of cells. These cells are used in the manufacture of blood, skin, heart, lungs, pancreas and a variety of other organs. They play an important role in organ transplants, tissue engineering and in the therapy of Parkinson's disease.
In fact, stem cells harvested from the adult marrow have already helped treat some of these diseases. Scientists have succeeded in transplanting adult stem cells from the anogenital area of the male reproductive organ to patients with chronic diseases like Parkinson's disease, a disease that affects both the nervous and the cardiac systems. This procedure has proven to be very effective in treating the disease since it stimulates the production of the living cells in the diseased area. Since adult stem cells could help treat Parkinson's disease, the researchers tested their idea in animals and succeeded. Stem cells from the adult bone marrow have also shown great potential in treating diseases like arthritis, psoriasis and multiple sclerosis.
Market Dynamics
High prevalence of chronic disorders is expected to propel growth of the global stem cells market. For instance, according to the study, ‘Prevalence of Parkinson’s disease (PD) across North America”, published in July 2018 in the journal Nature, the number of people suffering from PD is expected to reach 930,000 in 2020 and 1,238,000 in 2030.
R&D in stem cells is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for players in the global stem cells market. For instance, in December 2020, researchers from the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine demonstrated that stem cells found in amniotic fluid meet an essential test increasing their likelihood of becoming specialized cell types.
