Lab-grown meat is fast becoming a real alternative to its farm-grown counterpart as billionaire entrepreneurs and industry heavyweights invest into start-ups from across the nascent field of “cellular agriculture”. Produced via stem cells derived from cows, pigs, fish, sheep, or other livestock, the emerging clean meat industry has the potential to transform the global food market and create a new trillion dollar industry in the process.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPS Cell) Applications in 2026
Since the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in 2006, a large and thriving research products market has emerged, largely because the cells are non-controversial and can be generated directly from adult cells. It is clear that iPSCs represent a lucrative market segment, because methods for commercializing this cell type are expanding every year and clinical studies investigating iPSCs are swelling in number.

Ncardia Launches First-of-Its-Kind iPSC-Derived Non-Human Primate Cardiomyocytes to Advance Cardiac Safety Research
LEIDEN, Netherlands — Ncardia, a leader in stem cell–based solutions for drug discovery and safety assessment, today announced the launch of Ncyte® NHP-C vCardiomyocytes, the first commercially available ventricular-like cardiomyocytes derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of cynomolgus monkeys. New Ncyte® NHP-C vCardiomyocytes provide a scalable, ethical and translational tool for cross-species cardiac studies. [Read more…]
Development of iPSC-derived Disease Models
Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based models are a valuable resource for studying disease mechanisms in vitro at the cellular level[1], screening potential new therapeutics[2], and investigating the propensity and mechanism for the development of toxic side effects caused by a drug treatment[3]. Such iPSC-based models enable research to be performed under defined experimental conditions and in a reproducible manner. [Read more…]
iPS Cell Therapy: Is Japan the Market Leader?
Although there are key players in multiple geographies worldwide, Japan has positioned itself as a hub for induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS cell) technology. iPS cells are made by reprogramming adult cells back into an embryonic-like state. Derived from skin or blood cells, they are not controversial.
