The global zebrafish market size was expected to be USD million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 14.5% during the forecast period.

Freshwater fish in the minnow family (Cyprinidae) of the order Cypriniformes include the zebrafish (Danio rerio). It is a well-known aquarium fish that is native to South Asia and is commonly offered under the trade name zebra danio. Despite being both tropical and subtropical, it is frequently referred to as a "tropical fish." Additionally, private ponds contain it. In scientific study, this fish is a significant and frequently used vertebrate model organism, for instance in drug development, particularly pre-clinical development. It is remarkable for its capacity for regeneration, and scientists have altered it to create a variety of transgenic variants.

COVID-19 Impact: The Intrinsic COVID-19 Condition Curtailed the Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the zebrafish market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 epidemic severely damaged the world's healthcare system. Hospitals and clinics had to deal with a number of issues, including a lack of resources, a massive influx of patients, and the risk of infection among medical staff. Due to the pandemic and the suspension and postponement of elective surgeries, including dental procedures, the zebrafish market share suffered.

LATEST TRENDS

"Introduction as a Modal System to Study Obesity to Surge the Market Demand "

The fish have been utilized as model organisms for the study of obesity in both hereditary and over nutrition-induced forms. Obese zebrafish exhibit dysregulation of lipid-controlling metabolic pathways, which causes weight growth without proper lipid metabolism, just like obese vertebrates do. Like mammals, the fish also store extra lipids in subcutaneous, intramuscular, and visceral adipose tissue. The fish are suitable models to investigate obesity in humans and other species for the aforementioned factors as well as others. In transgenic or mutant zebrafish with obesogenic genes, genetic obesity is typically examined.

The fish’s models of diet-induced obesity are helpful because diets can be changed starting at a very young age. Both high-fat diets and diets that generally overfeed the body result in rapid increases in adiposity, BMI, hepatosteatosis, and hypertriglyceridemia. However, the regular fat, overfed specimens still have a healthy metabolism, unlike the specimens on a high-fat diet. Understanding the variations in feeding-induced obesity could be helpful in treating obesity in people as well as other related health issues.

DRIVING FACTORS

"The Several Transgenic Modal to Study Cancer to Boost the Market Share "

Several transgenic cancer models, including melanoma, leukaemia, pancreatic cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma, have been created using zebrafish. It has raised on a background lacking p53 develop melanoma when they exhibit mutant versions of the BRAF or NRAS oncogenes. These tumours reveal extensive genetic changes, closely match the human disease histologically, and are completely transplantable.

The model was employed in one study as a tool to comprehend the functional significance of genes that were amplified and over-expressed in human melanoma. One gene, SETDB1, significantly sped up tumour development in the the fish’s model, highlighting its significance as a novel melanoma oncogene. Because SETDB1 is known to be involved in the epigenetic control that is becoming more recognized as being essential to tumour cell biology, this was particularly noteworthy.

"The Utilization of Product as a Modal System to Study Diabetes to Attract the Consumers"

The zebrafish pancreas develops extremely similarly to mice and other mammals. The pancreas's functioning and the signalling systems are remarkably similar. There is an endocrine compartment in the pancreas that houses a number of cells. Two examples of these cells are the insulin-producing -cells and the polypeptide-producing pancreatic PP cells. This pancreatic anatomy and the glucose homeostasis system are important for understanding disorders like diabetes that have a pancreatic component.

The mechanisms of glucose homeostasis and pancreas development can be understood using models for pancreas function, such as fluorescent protein staining. The fish were utilized in the development of the glucose tolerance tests that are now used to diagnose diabetes and glucose intolerance in people. The fish are also being used to study insulin function, which will benefit human medicine. The majority of research on glucose homeostasis has been conducted in the fish and has been applied to humans.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Certain Limitations and Disadvantage with the Solubility to Repel the Market Players"

Despite the adaptability of zebrafish, there are some research fields where they are not the best model, such as human disorders in tissues or organs that don't have the fish’s analogue (prostrate, mammary glands, lungs). They are aquatic species, so some research may run into problems because of their habitat. The fact that some medications are not soluble in water, making submersion delivery difficult, is another drawback of the the fish model. Therefore, the certain limitation and disadvantage being a restraining factor can hamper the zebrafish market growth in the forecasted period.

"European Region to Dominate the Market with Rising Rodents Modal Organisms"

Europe is the largest market accounting for about 40% of share globally. In fundamental biological research, zebrafish are a more and more common model organism. The number of fish increased by 28.5% between 2008 and 2011, according to the most recent report from the European Commission on the quantity of animals used in research in the EU. The increasing employment of fish in scientific study is sometimes viewed as a major success in the replacement of mammalian model species, particularly rodents. To ensure that any research using the fish can be conducted in accordance with the same scientific and animal welfare criteria as the laboratory rodents they frequently replace, methodologies and methods are urgently needed given the increasing relevance of the fish as an animal model.
