Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMPs) offer a real and tangible hope for many different chronic illnesses for which there currently are no or limited therapeutic options. The science and technology that support these products are developing rapidly and therefore the products that are on the market today will undoubtedly continue to improve and grow in effectiveness and capability over time. Patients around the world are now beginning to experience the benefits of these improved products. One such product is Stem Cell Therapy, which uses Stem cells from healthy cells taken from the patient's own body. High prevalence of Alzheimer's disease is expected to propel growth of the advanced therapy medicinal products market. For instance, According to the data from Alzheimer's Association, around 5.7 million people in the U.S. were suffering from Alzheimer's disease in 2018. Moreover, increasing adoption of gene therapy is also expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, in March 2020, AVROBIO, Inc., a clinical-stage gene therapy company, announced that a second patient in the AVR-RD-04 Phase 1/2 clinical trial in cystinosis has been enrolled and has completed apheresis.

Aplastic Anemia is a rare but serious disease of the blood cells. It is diagnosed by the inability of the bone marrow to synthesize RBCs, WBCs and platelets. The spongy bone marrow contains stem cells that are actively involved in Hematopoiesis.

What is Depression? Every individual experiences feelings of worthlessness, sadness, and negativity. It is when these feelings spiral out of control and consume the individual to an extent that his/her normal life is disrupted, that depression arises. Depression is a serious medical condition and can significantly weaken the individual both physically and mentally. What are the causes and risk factors of depression? In medical terms, depression is due to a decreased amount of certain chemicals in the brain. Depression has a genetic basis, i.e. depression may run in family. It can also be triggered by an event such as the loss of a loved one, losing a job, etc. There are some hormonal problems like decreased thyroid levels that can also lead to depression. Depression can also follow after the diagnosis of a serious illness and leads to impaired treatment of the disease. It is accompanied by the feeling of not getting well and hence ignoring the medication and the other activities that have been advised by the doctor. Risk factors Traumatic past, abuse, neglect Loss of a loved one Serious medical conditions like Parkinson's disease, etc. Also Read: How to Prevent Depression in Elderly What are the symptoms of depression?

A 3D cell culture is basically an artificial environment where biological cells are allowed to grow or interact naturally in all three dimensions, similar to how they do in vivo. Unlike 2D cultures, a 3D culture allows living cells in vitro to adopt all possible growth directions, much like how they would in the real world. This is ideal for treating diseases that involve multiple organ systems. In medicine, this is known as organo-evolution. Here are some advantages of 3D cell cultures: Unlike before, it is now possible to culture different kinds of cells such as blood, sperm, and stem cells in vitro. This was made possible by the introduction of new equipment called the culture chamber, which is used to manipulate cells in culture. Before, only two types of cells were possible to culture, monoclonal (which are typically the type found in bodily tissue) and plating (which are typically found in muscle and blood cells). In addition, the 3D cell culture can be controlled, making it more useful. For instance, researchers can use different types of media on different cells at the same time; this can help them investigate cell culture in more detail.

Bone Marrow Transplantation (or BMT) is the specialized treatment of patients suffering from diseases like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and multiple myeloma. Hematologic stem cells are usually taken from bone marrow. They are harvested and divided into two types namely autologous and allogenic. Autologous cells are implanted in the diseased area and they work against the disease while allogeneic cells are taken from the bone marrow and used for transplants. In general, BMT is more successful when compared to other treatment modalities. In Germany, around 13,895 people were diagnosed with leukemia with around 4% of them aged 15 years and below. One common cause of blood transfusions is the occurrence of sickle cell anemia. Sickle cell anemia is a disorder wherein the red blood cells of the body are shaped differently from normal. These blood cells are thick and might contain large amounts of iron. A bone marrow transplant can be given after the occurrence of sickle cell anemia.
