Cardiac biomarkers are the substances that are released into the bloodstream when the heart is stressed or damaged. Suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) is one such biomarker used to help in measurement of heart failure risk to assess the treatment options. The ST2 biomarker is a member of the interleukin-1 receptor family biomarker. It is a strong predictor and most promising biomarker for both chronic and acute heart failure.
ST2 was first discovered in 1989, but in 2002 it was known to be expressed by cardiac cells in response to myocardial stress. Unlike other cardiac biomarkers, the level of ST2 in the blood is found the best to help physicians for making decisions for an appropriate action to take and quickly adjust the treatment.
The level of ST2 is quickly changed with the heart conditions of the patients which makes it as a best cardiac biomarker to monitor the progress of the heart treatment. According to the centre for disease control and prevention (CDC), heart disease is the leading cause of death for people in the United States, including African Americans, Hispanics, and whites.
Besides, heart disease is found as the second cause of death in American Indians or Alaska Natives and Asians or Pacific Islanders. However, it is observed that more clinicians are now turning to use ST2 biomarker unlike other biomarkers to help and guide treatment of heart failure of patients. Recently, the Presage ST2 assay has been approved by regulatory agencies in Europe and the United States for prognostication in Heart failure.
Moreover, due to the low-biological variability, ST2 biomarker considered as an ideal biomarker to monitor heart disease. It helps to monitor the risk of heart failure and guide in hospital and post-discharge care of the heart patients.
Increasing prevalence and incidence of heart diseases drives the ST2 biomarker market. Unlike other biomarkers, ST2 biomarker is considered as an ideal biomarker to monitor heart disease because of the low-biological variability, which drives the market of ST2 biomarker.
Nowadays, the rising heart diseases due to physical inactivity and unhealthy diet are the main factors drives the ST2 biomarker market. However, due to unavailability of sufficient systems/products for the detection of ST2 biomarker and lack of awareness about the use of ST2 biomarker among the clinicians expected to restrain the ST2 biomarker market.
According to WHO, 17.9 Mn people are dying due to cardiovascular diseases each year, which is approximately 31% of all death worldwide. Consequently, as a novel biomarker for the detection of heart diseases the market of ST2 biomarker will expectedly grow tremendously during forecasting periods.
The ST2 biomarker detection will provide immense opportunities among the key players to develop novel ST2 biomarker detection kits and devices in the upcoming periods. The rising death rate due to heart diseases expected to grow the market of ST2 biomarker globally.
The in time result of ST2 level by the ELISA assay helps physicians to control and manage the heart patients, which is expected to help in the growth of global ST2 biomarker market.
The U.S. is expected as the leading market of ST2 biomarker due to the increasing prevalence and death of heart disease in this region. The market of ST2 biomarker is high in the U.S. also because of the greater degree of awareness among the individuals and high economy followed by Europe.
The high growth of the ST2 biomarker market has also been observed in Asia Pacific countries due to the increasing number of death due to heart diseases and awareness among the people.
Prominent growth of ST2 biomarker market has been expected from the emerging countries such as China, India, Brazil and South Africa in the forecast years that will provide a huge opportunity to lunch new product among the market players.
