growing in the last three years. A 4.2% YoY increase in type 2 diabetes has
been notified in the US below age 20. Hence, beta cell replacement approaches
have been used to treat patients afflicted with insulin resistance. For
example, in CRISPR therapeutics, ViaCyte has pioneered the approach of generating
pancreatic-lineage cells from stem cells and delivering them safely and
efficiently to patients. Moreover, the company’s gene-editing technology
protects the transplanted cells from the patient’s immune cells.
Genome Editing/Genome Engineering Market Challenges
The technological and ethical concerns surrounding the use of genome editing have hampered the growth of market and acted as a challenge for the market
Consumers are growing aware of the ingredients, moreover, two-third of the consumer decisions are now based on what is present on the
item’s label. For example, GMO practices or Genetically Modified Organisms are
highly intolerable in current scenarios, moreover, the brands are using tags
such as “NON-GMO” and “obtained via sustainable practices” to lure consumers into
their segment. But, however, gene editing in crops and plants helps to elongate
the life of plants and improve the yield per hectare. Genome modifications,
such as site-specific insertion, deletion, substitution, and epiallelic changes
of the DNA in a cell or organism are all part of genome engineering, and there
have been cases reported which suggests that their usage worsens the health
conditions and are only favorable to the growers/manufacturers and not the end
consumers. Lastly, the technology is used is not 100% reliant, and a cut at the
wrong spot can cause troubles within. Hence, assessing the safety for gene
therapies is a critical step that elongates the product cost/labor costs and
also increases the technical know-how requirements.
