Pulmonary Surfactant Market Growth Opportunities, Driving Factors by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast Analysis to 2026

 


Pulmonary surfactant is a complex mixture of phospholipids and proteins that creates a unique interface separating alveolar gas and liquids at the alveolar cell surface, reducing surface tension, and maintaining lung volumes at end expiration. Reduction of the surface tension at the air–liquid interface is a requirement for respiratory function following birth. Deficiency of pulmonary surfactant causes respiratory failure in premature infants, or infantile respiratory distress syndrome (IRDS). The adequacy of pulmonary surfactant is maintained by unique and highly regulated systems mediating the synthesis, secretion, reutilization, and catabolism of surfactant. Loss or inactivation of pulmonary surfactant later in life occurs in the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a significant cause of morbidity and mortality following infection, shock, or trauma. Mutations in genes regulating surfactant homeostasis, including SFTPA, SFTPB, SFTPC, ABCA3, TITF1, and CSF2RA cause acute and/or chronic lung disease in newborn infants, children, and adults. Disorders of GM-CSF signaling inhibit surfactant lipid and protein catabolism by alveolar macrophage causing pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP).

Global pulmonary surfactant market size was valued at US$ 578.7  million in 2022 and is expected to witness a CAGR of 4.50 % over the forecast period (2022 – 2030).

Pulmonary Surfactant Market-Drivers

Increasing preference of animal derived surfactant for the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome is driving the pulmonary surfactant market growth over the forecast period.

Increasing preference of animal derived surfactant for the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome is driving the pulmonary surfactant market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in May 2021, according to the article published in Archives of Clinical and Medical Case Reports, an open access, peer reviewed Journal, Poractant alfa (Curosurf), significantly reduced the rates of pneumothorax (the presence of air or gas in the cavity between the lungs and the chest wall, causing collapse of the lung) in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome. This reduction was more significant in VLBW (very low birth weight) than non-VLBW (very low birth weight) infants.

Furthermore, on April 11, 2022, an article was published in National Center for Biotechnology Information, a branch of the National Institutes of Health, which reported that when animal derived pulmonary surfactant is combined with budesonide, a corticosteroid or steroid, in the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome can effectively shorten the hospital stay and reduce the time of invasive mechanical ventilation and the incidence of BPD (bronchopulmonary dysplasia). Meanwhile, it does not increase the risk of related complications or death. This approach can be applied clinically.

Virology Testing Market Detailed In New Research Report 2023

  Virology testing consist of diagnostic methods that help in early detection of the disease such as hepatitis, influenza, HIV, sexually transmitted disease, RCV, and other viral associated disease. Virology testing examines for detection of viral antigens, nucleic acids, and antibodies in the given sample in order to confirm the presence of particular viral infection. There are more than 100 viral diseases identified. Virology Testing Market- Market Dynamics Virology testing market is projected to witness significant growth during forecast period with rising prevalence of virus originated diseases such as flu, hepatitis, AIDS, and STDs, Ebola, Influenza based viral infections, severe acute respiratory syndrome from coronavirus, hemorrhagic fever etc. across world. Early and fast diagnosis of virus infection is very essential to start treatment course.

Epidermolysis Bullosa Therapeutics Market Is Booming Worldwide 2023-2028

  Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of rare inherited skin disorders that causes the skin to become very fragile. Any trauma or friction to the skin can cause painful blisters. The symptoms of epidermolysis bullosa include skin that blisters easily, blisters on hands and soles of the feet, thickened skin that may be scarred or change color over time, and thickening of the skin and nails. There are three types of epidermolysis bullosa which includes: ·          Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) – the most common type, which can range from mild, with a low risk of serious complications to severe ·          Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) – which can range from mild to severe ·          Junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB) – a rare form of epidermolysis bullosa that ranges from moderate to severe The type reflects where on the body the blistering ...

Immobilized Trypsin Market continues to witness major growth due to extensive applications in protein identification, protein interactions, and protein characterization

  Immobilized Trypsin is the trade name for colloidal silver. This insoluble substance is synthesized as a result of the interaction of an acid (hydrogen) and an alkaline (monohydrate) base. Colloidal silver has numerous applications in the medical world. For instance, in veterinary science, Immobilized Silver compounds are often administered to tissues to stimulate their growth, as well as to prevent or reduce tissue damage caused by injuries and other external factors. Colloidal silver has also been found to have anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal properties. The clinical significance of these properties is still being studied; however, Immobilized Silver is widely used as a bacterial colloid, a degradable component of water softeners, and as a wound dressing ingredient in various fields of medicine. Trypsin is an amino acid that is found in proteins like albumin and gelatin. Trypsin belongs to the PA family of serines, present in the intestines of all vertebrates, in ...
