The amniotic membrane (AM) forms the innermost layer of the placenta that is mainly composed of an epithelial monolayer, acellular intermediate basement, and an outer mesenchymal cell layer. It surrounds the embryo/fetus and delimits the amniotic cavity, which is filled with amniotic liquid and assists in healing wounds and protecting against infection. It has anti-inflammatories, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, immunological, anti-angiogenic, and proapoptotic properties. As it also aids in preventing the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to cancer cells and consequently interferes with tumor angiogenesis, growth, and metastasis, AM finds wide applications in oncology across the globe.

Amniotic Membrane Market Trends:

There is currently a rise in the number of corneal surgeries on account of their ability to reduce pain, restore vision, and improve the appearance of a damaged or diseased cornea. This, along with the increasing geriatric population, represents one of the key factors strengthening the growth of the market. AMs assist in enhancing epithelialization, reinforcing adhesion of basal epithelial cells, maintaining epithelial phenotype, and modulating the proliferation of normal cornea, conjunctivital and limbal fibroblast. As they also prevent apoptosis and inhibit scarring, inflammation, and neovascularization, they are widely employed during corneal transplants around the world. Besides this, AMs are relatively cost-effective compared to xenografts and allografts. Consequently, they find extensive applications in a rising number of cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries worldwide. Furthermore, there is a continuous increase in the funding for research and development (R&D) activities in the field of stem cell and regenerative medicine. This, coupled with a rapid increase in the number of surgeries, is creating a favorable market outlook. Other factors, including growing donations of the placenta and rising demand for tissue-based products for treating surgical wounds, are driving the market.
