Adipose tissue or fatty tissue is a specialized connective tissue consisting of lipid-rich cells called adipocytes found mainly under the skin also in deposits between the muscles, around the heart, in the intestines, membrane folds of the intestine, and elsewhere.
Bone Marrow
Bone marrow is a spongy tissue found in the center of bones and contains Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs). HSCs if damaged, may not become red blood cells, white blood cells, or platelets.
Embryo/Cord Blood-Derived
Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs) are stem cells derived from the undifferentiated inner mass cells of a human embryo that has the ability to form cells of muscle, nerve, blood, and potentially any cell type that makes up the body. These cells have the capacity for self-renewal that makes them an attractive cell source for regenerative medicine.
Neural
Neural stem cells are the most primordial and uncommitted cells of the nervous system that can give rise to offspring cells that differentiate into neurons and glial cells.
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (IPSCS)
iPSCs (Induced pluripotent stem cells) are artificial stem cells produced from somatic cells that can self-renew indefinitely in culture and differentiate into all specialized cell types such as gametes.
Porcine Pluripotent Stem Cells (PPSc)
PPSCs can be used for various applications such as disease modeling, drug discovery, and regenerative medicine. These are divided and differentiated into multipotential hematopoietic stem cells of one of two lineages, including lymphoid progenitors or myeloid progenitors.
By Type
The stem cell therapy market, on the basis of type, is segmented into allogenic and autologous. The allogenic segment accounted for the largest share of 77.22% in 2020.
The increasing prevalence of cancer and related diseases among people createsa demand for allogeneic stem transplantation worldwide. According to WHO, around 300,000 new cancer cases are diagnosed each year among children aged 0-19 years. It is estimated that 19.3 million new cancer cases occurred in the year 2020. This creates a burden on the global health care system, creating demand for effective treatment options for cancers worldwide.
Autologous stem cell transplantation, also known as autologous bone marrow transplant, involves using a patient’s own stem cells for the transplant. For this transplantation, stem cells are collected in advance from the patient and are frozen
By Application
The stem cell therapy market, on the basis of application, is segmented into diabetes, musculoskeletal disorders, cancer, cardiovascular disorders, gastrointestinal diseases, and others. The diabetes segment accounted for the largest share of 27.33% in 2020.
According to WHO, about 422 million people have diabetes around the globe. The majority of diabetes cases are found in low- and middle-income countries. Diabetes mellitus, commonly known as diabetes, is a metabolic disease that occurs when blood glucose is too high. This condition leads over time to serious damage to the heart, eyes, blood vessels, nerves, and kidneys.
Musculoskeletal disorders are the conditions that affect the human body’s movement or musculoskeletal system, i.e., muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs, nerves, and blood vessels.
Cardiovascular disease is a class of heart and blood vessels diseases that include cerebrovascular disease, rheumatic heart disease, and other conditions.
Cancer is a group of diseases that result when cellular changes cause the uncontrolled growth and division of cells and spread to other body parts.
Stem cell therapy provides hope for patients with all types of gastrointestinal diseases. This therapy helps repair damaged cells, alleviate inflammation and eliminate pain and discomfort. With the help of this therapy, there is a possibility of Gasterointestinal Infectious (GI) disease cure. Autologous stem cells are often used for stem cell therapy.
Stem cell therapy can also be used to treat osteoarthritis, burns, spinal cord injuries, and many others. Researchers are working on the advancement of stem cells and their applications in various diseases. Stem cell therapy can be very useful in diseases where organs are damaged, or the immune system is too active. The use of numerous stem cells is being studied in the laboratory and experimental therapies.
