Current And Forthcoming Autoimmune Disease Treatment Market Size In Terms Of Volume And Value 2019

Autoimmune disease is a medical condition that causes abnormalities in the immune response and triggers damage to the healthy body tissues. The increasing prevalence of autoimmune diseases all over the world is generating high demand for effective treatments in the global market. As per the report published by Market Research Future (MRFR), the global autoimmune disease treatment market is anticipated to expand remarkably at a noteworthy CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period of 2017-2023.
Autoimmune diseases are diseases caused by the immune system mistaking the body’s own tissue for foreign tissues and attacking it. This can happen due to a number of complications within the immune system and can have disastrous consequences on the health of the individual. Some of the most widely prevalent autoimmune diseases include rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. Growing awareness about autoimmune diseases and their treatment is likely to be a major driver for the global autoimmune disease treatment market over the forecast period. While autoimmune diseases have always been present among human populations, their sporadic appearance and lack of infectiousness made them relatively minor subjects of study compared to other, more imminent threats. The growing prevalence of autoimmune diseases in modern times has led to growing awareness about the disease and is likely to remain the key driver for the autoimmune disease treatment market over the forecast period.
Growing development of effective treatments for a number of autoimmune diseases is likely to be a major driver for the global autoimmune disease treatment market over the forecast period. Autoimmune diseases can be hard to treat effectively, as treating them effectively means shutting down or slowing down the operations of the body’s immune system. While this may be an effective way of combating autoimmune diseases, this can also leave the body vulnerable to other infections and diseases that can make the most of the body’s temporary weakness. The use of genetic components in treating autoimmune diseases is a new aspect gained by the autoimmune disease treatment market in the last few years and is likely to remain a key part of the market over the forecast period due to the increasing awareness about its effectiveness and safety.

Refsum Disease Market Up To 2023: Top Companies, Growth Factors Details And Regional Overview By Types & Application

Refsum disease is a genetic disorder which is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. The condition is characterized by progressive loss of vision (retinitis pigmentosa), failure of muscle coordination (ataxia), degenerative nerve disease (peripheral neuropathy), and dry, rough, scaly skin (ichthyosis). The accumulation of fatty acid (phytanic acid) in blood plasma and tissues is the main cause of refsum disease. This occurs due to malfunction of the enzyme producing gene that metabolizes phytanic acid. According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, more than 90 % cases of refsum disease result from the mutations in PHYH gene, and the remaining cases are caused by mutations in a gene PEX7 gene.
Notably, increasing awareness among people is the key factor driving the refsum disease market. According to the National Organization of Rare Diseases, the age of onset of refsum disorder varies greatly. The disease can occur at any time from early childhood to nearly 50 years of age, but in most cases will have appeared by age 20. Males and females are equally affected in numbers.
