In recent trading days, the deep-sea technology sector has continued to show strength, with many individual stocks within the sector posting gains of over 30% this week. However, within this sector, one sub-sector has seen relatively lower gains, namely the marine biomedicine sector. In fact, there is a close connection between marine biopharmaceuticals and deep-sea technology. The development of deep-sea technology has provided marine biopharmaceuticals with broader horizons and more possibilities. Advances in deep-sea exploration technology have enabled people to delve deeper into the ocean, discover and collect more unique marine biological resources. These resources are rich in medicinal components, providing abundant raw materials for marine biopharmaceuticals.
Currently, marine biomedicine accounts for a generally low proportion of revenue among companies related to synthetic biology and pharmaceuticals, but its growth potential is enormous. As people's understanding of marine resources deepens and development technologies continue to advance, more and more marine drugs are being successfully developed and brought to market, gradually expanding the scale of the industry.
In terms of technological innovation, significant achievements have been made in the field of marine biopharmaceuticals. Scientific research institutions and enterprises have continuously increased their investment in research and development, utilizing advanced biotechnology, chemical synthesis technology, and other means to screen and extract active substances with medicinal value from marine organisms, and conducting in-depth pharmacological research and drug development. For example, some antibiotics and anti-cancer drugs derived from marine sources have entered clinical trials or have been launched onto the market, providing new options for the treatment of various diseases.
In terms of market potential, marine biopharmaceuticals face a broad market outlook. With the growth and aging of the global population, the demand for pharmaceutical products is constantly increasing, especially for drugs to treat major diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological diseases. With its unique drug resources and innovative drug development models, marine biopharmaceuticals are expected to play an important role in meeting these medical needs.
In the industrial chain of marine biopharmaceuticals, the upstream primarily consists of scientific research institutions and related enterprises engaged in the development and research of marine biological resources. For example, institutions such as Ocean University of China and the Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences possess deep technical accumulation and scientific research capabilities in the study of marine biological resources, providing crucial technical support for marine biopharmaceuticals. The midstream is occupied by specialized marine biopharmaceutical enterprises, which are the core segment of the industrial chain and responsible for drug research and development, production, and sales. The downstream mainly includes enterprises and institutions related to pharmaceutical sales and medical applications, such as pharmaceutical wholesale enterprises, pharmacy chains, and hospitals.
