NON-VIRAL TRANSFECTION REAGENTS MARKET: GROWTH AND TRENDS
Over the years, a large number of nucleic acid-based therapies have gained regulatory approval, underscoring both their therapeutic potential and rising popularity. As a result, there has been an increased demand for vectors capable of efficiently delivering these therapies. Notably, transfection is one such process of artificially introducing genetic material / nucleic acid into the cells with the use of specific carriers / vectors. However, conventional transfection through viral vectors poses several challenges, such as complications related to immunogenicity and cytotoxicity along with being a cost-intensive development process. Consequently, the demand for alternative gene drug vehicles such as non-viral transfection reagents has increased. The non-viral transfection reagents can overcome limitations, such as inflammation and non-specific transduction, associated with viral vectors. Further, these vectors are significantly cost effective than their virus-based counterparts, implying the potential for use in the development of more affordable products in the gene therapy market.

In non-viral transfection method, the gene transfer to cells may involve either direct introduction of DNA into the host cell, or the delivery of carrier gene by a complex formation with lipids, polymers or lipo-polymers. In both cases, gene sequences are inserted into a plasmid (vector) for its expression within the host. Due to low immunogenicity, non-viral transfection systems allow re-dosing of genetic material without the risk of complications. Moreover, such reagents are more economical than viral vectors as they can be easily produced in large quantities.
