Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a type of heterogeneous disorder caused by gene mutation, where the body is unable to break down certain proteins and fats, which further results in buildup of substance called methylmalonic acid in the blood or in the urine. This is a genetic condition, which is caused due to a defect in the metabolism of methyl malonyl-coenzyme A (CoA), vitamin B12, or any dietary deficiency and is passed down through families. People suffering from this disorder might face other biochemical abnormalities such as low methionine and elevation of homocysteine and children with MMA lack the protein required by their body to break down the food.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
- Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicine supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as hydroxychloroquine have witnessed a dramatic surge in demand for the management of COVID-19. Such high demand for these drugs has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are facing shortage of these drugs. Thus, the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries are expected to witness a significant growth in the future, owing to the demand for vaccine and treatment drugs for COVID-19. This, in turn, is expected to have a significant impact on the methylmalonic acidemia market.
