Per the Frontiers Media S.A. 2023 report, progress in the field of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) has opened a new gateway for research in therapeutics. iPSCs are mainly intended for research and clinical studies such as disease modeling, regenerative medicine, and drug discovery/drug cytotoxicity studies. For example, iPSCs can be used to convert differentiated somatic cells to multipotent stem cells to generate different cell types of adult tissues. Thus, iPSCs have shown promising results in regenerative medicine, particularly for replacing diseased or injured cells. iPSCs are widely used to regenerate tissue-specific cells for transplantation in patients for treating injuries and degenerative diseases. Studies such as drug discovery involving screening of small molecules and toxicity testing for safety assessment have been successfully disclosed positive iPSCs-based results. The aforementioned factors are expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to companies in the stem cell therapy market in the coming years.
Asia Pacific stem cell therapy market is analyzed based on the five major countries such as China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. The Asia Pacific region is expected to be the fastest-growing region among all other regions. The growth of the market in the Asia Pacific region is expected to grow at a faster pace owing to factors such as increasing need for superior treatment solutions, favorable regulatory scenarios, increasing focus on research and development activities, and growing awareness regarding benefits offered by stem cell therapy. Additionally, developing healthcare infrastructure and increasing investments in order to boost the research activities are projected to drive the Asia Pacific stem cell therapy market during the forecast period.
