Global Primary Cells Market by Type (Hematopoietic, Dermatocytes, Hepatocytes, Gastrointestinal, Lung, Renal, Heart, Musculoskeletal), Origin (Human Primary Cells, Animal Primary Cells), End User (Pharma Biotech, CROs, Academia), Region - Forecast to 2028

Advancing Biomedical Research Using Primary Cells in 3D Cultures

The global primary cells market is projected to reach USD 2.8 billion by 2028 from USD 1.7 billion in 2023, at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period. On the basis of origin, the primary cells market is divided into animal and human primary cells. In 2022, the human primary cells segment accounted for the largest share of the primary cells market. Human primary cells are used for the development of novel cancer therapies, for studying human cancerous cell models and toxicology studies, and in the cosmetic industry. The other key driving factors for the human primary cells market include the demand for accurate disease models, the rise of regenerative medicine, safety testing requirements, and technological innovations within the scientific community. 

Hematopoietic cells segment accounted for the largest share in the primary cells market, by type in 2022.

Based on type, the primary cells market is segmented into hematopoietic cells, dermatophytes, gastrointestinal cells, hepatocytes, lung cells, renal cells, heart cells, musculoskeletal cells, and other primary cells. In 2022, the hematopoietic cells segment accounted for the largest market share. Hematopoietic cell transplants are frequently and constantly used to develop novel cancer therapies to treat blood cancers and other disorders of the immune system. Hematopoietic cells are also used to understand the biochemical pathways of tumor cells and the efficacy of different drugs. As a result, this segment accounts for the largest market share of the market.

In 2022, the pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies, and CROs segment accounted for the largest share of the global primary cells market, by the end user.

On the basis of end users, the primary cells market is segmented into pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies, and CROs, academic & research institutes, and other end users. In 2022, pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies and CROs accounted for the largest share of the primary cells market, mainly due to the high adoption of primary cells in cell-based experiments and cancer research in pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies and CROs; and the increasing number of R&D facilities globally.  

Asia Pacific, primary cells market, is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period.

In 2022, North America accounted for the largest share of the primary cells market, followed by Europe. North America and Europe are the preferred locations for drug discovery due to established clusters in these regions, resulting in the largest market for primary cells. The Asia Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Growth in this region is expected to be centered on China and Japan. Factors such as the presence of a large population and the rising incidence of cancer, increasing R&D spending on biopharmaceutical projects, and the growth of the biotechnology industry in developing countries are the major factors contributing to the growth of the Asia Pacific market are driving the growth of the primary cells market in this region.
