Oligonucleotides are synthesized in a very precise way, which makes them highly targetable with very few side effects. Oligonucleotides can be customized to hybridize with specific pathogenic DNA or RNA, for which they are used in screening assays for tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV. Rising demand for genetic tests, caused mainly by an increase in the number of incidences of genetic illnesses such as cancer, as well as acceptance, need large oligo production capabilities and quick turnaround times. According to World Health Organization (WHO), Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is the third greatest cause of mortality globally, accounting for 3.23 million deaths in 2022.
Allele-specific testing, aptamer design, and triplex-forming oligonucleotides for dsDNA binding are three of the most popular uses for research and therapeutics. Therapeutics based on oligonucleotides are of intermediate size, have significantly better target selectivity, and have fewer off-target effects than small molecules. Oligonucleotide Therapies (OTs), which are now being researched for their potential application in neurological illnesses, cancer, and even orphan diseases, include antisense RNAs, microRNAs (MIR), small interfering RNAs (siRNA), and aptamers. However, concerns regarding complexities associated with therapeutic oligos and issues related to the delivery of oligonucleotide drugs to specific targets are factors expected to provide some restraints to revenue growth of the market.
