South & Central America Human Microbiome Market Outlook

The potential of the human microbiome to transform healthcare industry has led to a recent surge in investments in research and development. Trillions of bacteria, fungi, and viruses that live in and on the human body make up the human microbiome, which is essential to good health as well as the prevention and treatment of diseases. The development of therapies based on microbiomes is receiving significant funding from biotech startups and pharmaceutical companies. One of the first microbiome startups in India, Xome Life Sciences, for example, focuses on every facet of the microbiome. The company is in the field and is developing prognostic, diagnostic, and therapeutic tools based on microbiomes to help people live healthier lives and make better decisions about their health. A recent FDA-approved treatment developed by Seres Therapeutics for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection is one of the many gastrointestinal diseases targeted by microbiome-based drugs. Vedanta Biosciences raised substantial money to build their pipeline of immunotherapies derived from microbiomes for autoimmune disorders and cancer. Notable investors such as Seventure Partners and Flagship Pioneering are actively funding companies that analyze microbiome data, reflecting a growing recognition of the microbiome's role in health. Thus, significant investment in research and development likely drives advancements in precision medicine and therapeutic interventions, thereby creating ample opportunities in the market.

South & Central America Human Microbiome Market Country Insights

Based on country, the South & Central America human microbiome market comprises Brazil, Argentina, and the Rest of South & Central America. Brazil held the largest share in 2023.

According to an article published in the Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases in 2023, a comprehensive study funded by research institutes in Brazil was conducted to analyze the sputum microbiome of patients with cystic fibrosis in Brazil. This study found a high Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) in the sputum of cystic fibrosis patients using microbiome analysis. If this method can predict Bcc presence, it could help anticipate antibiotic treatment to prevent bacterial growth in the airways. Thus, ongoing studies are anticipated to bring possible diagnostics and treatments for various chronic diseases in Brazil, increasing the demand for human microbiomes.

Pharmaceutical companies and biotech startups are investing in development of innovative microbiome therapeutics, leading to the introduction of new products in the market. For instance, in April 2023, researchers at Nintx, a startup in São Paulo, Brazil, partnered with federal institutions and private-sector corporations to develop new drugs from plant-based natural products. The startup received a US$ 3 million investment from the venture capital firm Pitanga in 2022 to expedite bringing these drugs to market. Thus, the growing research studies and investments by pharmaceutical companies are fueling the growth of the human microbiome market in Brazil.
