The Leigh syndrome market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled " Leigh Syndrome Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Leigh syndrome is a rare and progressive mitochondrial disorder that typically affects infants and young children. It is caused by mutations in mitochondrial DNA or nuclear DNA that affect the efficiency of mitochondria, which are responsible for generating energy within cells. The symptoms of the ailment can vary widely depending on the specific genetic mutations involved and the age of the onset of disease. However, the most common indications are developmental delays and regression, loss of motor skills, muscle weakness and stiffness, movement coordination challenges, difficulty in swallowing, vision and hearing loss, etc. Several other symptoms include seizures, heart problems, gastrointestinal disorders, metabolic acidosis, etc. The diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical investigations, medical history, and genetic testing. Numerous blood and urine tests are conducted to detect high levels of lactic acid, which can indicate mitochondrial dysfunction. Genetic testing is the gold standard for diagnosis and involves sequencing of the mitochondrial DNA or nuclear genes associated with Leigh syndrome. Additionally, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain is utilized to identify characteristic abnormalities in the brainstem and basal ganglia.
The rising cases of rare genetic disorders and the growing unmet clinical need to develop effective therapies and medications to treat such conditions are primarily driving the Leigh syndrome market. In addition to this, the escalating utilization of antioxidant supplements, including coenzyme Q10, vitamin E, vitamin C, etc., to help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in patients is also bolstering the market growth. Moreover, the widespread adoption of various medications, such as anticonvulsants and muscle relaxants, to manage symptoms of the ailment, including seizures and muscle stiffness, is creating a positive outlook for the market. Apart from this, the emerging popularity of neuroprotective therapies that can prevent or slow down nerve damage and help improve outcomes for patients is further propelling the market growth. Additionally, the rising usage of next-generation sequencing, which can analyze large amounts of DNA quickly and accurately, for identifying mutations in genes that may be missed by other methods is also acting as a significant growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the introduction of targeted therapies that address the underlying mitochondrial dysfunction and novel drugs that target mitochondrial protein synthesis and metabolism is expected to drive the Leigh syndrome market in the coming years.
