Leigh Syndrome Market 2025-2034 Business Outlook, Critical Insight and Growth

Introduction
Leigh syndrome, also known as subacute necrotizing encephalomyelopathy, is a rare, progressive neurometabolic disorder that primarily affects infants and young children. Characterized by degeneration of the central nervous system, Leigh syndrome is linked to defects in mitochondrial energy production. The condition is typically associated with mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) or nuclear DNA (nDNA), impacting enzymes essential for oxidative phosphorylation.

Symptoms such as developmental delays, muscular weakness, respiratory complications, and neurological decline make Leigh syndrome life-threatening, with many patients requiring lifelong supportive care. Despite its rarity, awareness of mitochondrial diseases has been increasing, driving investments in research, diagnostics, and therapeutic development. The market for Leigh syndrome is entering a growth phase, driven by advancements in genetic testing, potential gene therapies, and global rare disease initiatives.
