A spheroid is a three-dimensional (3D) cell culture in biology and drug discovery where cells self-aggregate into sphere-like structures. Compared to conventional 2D cell cultures, these structures provide a more physiologically relevant model by simulating tissue and microtumor environments. Applications for spheroids include drug screening, regenerative medicine, and understanding the behavior of cancer. An ellipse rotated around one of its axes forms a spheroid, a geometric shape known as an ellipsoid of revolution. It has circular symmetry and two equal semi-diameters. A prolate (elongated) spheroid, resembling a rugby ball, is produced when the ellipse is rotated about its major axis. It becomes an oblate (flattened) spheroid when rotated about its minor axis. Furthermore, the spheroid industry is driven by the growing need for physiologically relevant 3D cell culture models in regenerative medicine, drug discovery, and cancer research. Compared to conventional 2D cultures, spheroids more accurately reproduce in vivo cellular interactions, nutrient gradients, and tissue architecture, producing more predictive data for drug efficacy and toxicity screening. However, standardization, reproducibility, and development costs are some of the issues facing the spheres market.
The multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) segment dominated the largest share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the type, the global spheroids market is divided into multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS), neurospheres, mammospheres, hepatospheres, and embryoid bodies. Among these, the multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) segment dominated the largest share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. MCTS are extremely useful for preclinical drug screening and cancer biology research because, in contrast to 2D monolayer cultures, these replicate important tumor characteristics like hypoxic cores, nutrient gradients, and intricate cell-cell interactions. Their applicability in simulating tumor growth, metastasis, and response to treatment leads to their broad use in academic and pharmaceutical research centered on oncology.
The hanging drop method segment held the highest share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the method, the global spheroids market is divided into micropatterned plates, low cell attachment plates, hanging drop method, and others. Among these, the hanging drop method segment held the highest share in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. In academic and industrial settings, the hanging drop method has emerged as a preferred option for cancer research, drug screening, and regenerative medicine due to the growing demand for high-quality, scalable, and affordable 3D culture systems.
North America is anticipated to hold the highest share of the global spheroids market over the projected period.
North America is anticipated to hold the highest share of the global spheroids market over the projected period. This is because 3D spheroids have been made possible by technological advancements. This is because it offers a more realistic depiction of human tissue structures; these cutting-edge models have outperformed conventional 2D cell culture platforms. Researchers can produce more accurate and predictive results from their experiments by designing a microenvironment that closely resembles in vivo conditions.
Asia Pacific is estimated to grow at the fastest CAGR in the global spheroids market during the forecast period. This is because of the ongoing advancements in stem cell research. It is anticipated that an increase in collaborations between important market players will boost market expansion. For instance, UPM Biomedicals and Nichirei Biosciences teamed up in March 2020 to supply UPM culture products in Japan. As a result, there were more natural hydrogels available for spheroid culture.
