Connective Tissue Disease Market in depth study and analysis published, 2018

Market Scenario
Connective tissues are a group of cellular congregations that provide support and structure to the human body. Connective tissue disease is a group of disorders which involves these protein rich tissues. Protein rich tissues play an important role of supporting organs and other parts of the body. Connective tissue disorders involves multiple organs and organ systems such as, skin, joints, muscles, lungs, kidneys, eyes, heart, gastrointestinal tract, and blood vessels. More than 200 disorders affect the connective tissues. According to a study published in Pan African Medical Journal in 2017, it is found that mixed connective tissue disorders are more frequent among Asians, and in the African population. It is also reported that among Asian population, the condition is more prevalent in China, and Japan. In the European region, the disorder is more prevalent in Italy, Hungary, Norway, and Poland.
The specific cause of this disorder is unknown but the genetic patterns are considered to escalate the risk for developing connective tissue diseases. The connective tissue diseases arises due to changes in certain genes are often known as heritable disorders of connective tissue. Some of the common inherited disorders are Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), Epidermolysis bullosa (EB), Marfan Syndrome, and Osteogenesis imperfect. EDS is an amalgamation of more than 10 disorders, characterized by stretchy skin, over-flexible joints, and abnormal growth of scar tissue. Various autoimmune diseases are also associated with connective tissue disorders, which includes polymyositis and dermatomyositis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Sjögren's syndrome, and vasculitis. Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) is another rare autoimmune disease, consisting of characteristic features of several diseases such as lupus, polymyositis or dermatomyositis, scleroderma, and rheumatoid arthritis. According to the National Center for Advancing Translational Medicines, currently there is no cure available for this condition but certain medications such as corticosteroids, immunosuppresive drugs, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) help in the management of symptoms. It is also stated that MCTD is more frequent in females with a male to female ratio of 1:3, and the typical age of onset of MCTD is between 15-25 years.
Notably, the market is expected to expand in the near future due to the rising prevalence of various connective tissue disorders, high unmet needs of current treatment, and surge in the research and development expenditure.
Despite these drivers, there are some issues associated with connective tissue disease market. Lack of infrastructure in the middle and low income countries may hamper the growth of the market.
