Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

1. This is one of the nucleic acid synthesis pathways. In the Pyrimidines, there are three
Nucleotide molecules; they are UTP, CTP, and TTP. The Denovo pyrimidine
synthesis pathway can be explained by the following steps.
1. Synthesis of Carbamoyl Phosphate
2. Synthesis of Carbamoyl Aspartate
3. Ring Closure to form dihydroorotate
4. Oxidation of Dihydro Orotate
5. Addition of ribose Phosphate moiety
6. De Carboxylation to form UMP
2. Step 1: Synthesis of Carbamoyl Phosphate
The first reaction of Pyrimidine synthesis is the synthesis of Carbamoyl
phosphate by utilizing the amide form of Glutamine (Glutamate) and
HCO3
– (Carbonic acid).
This reaction is catalyzed by Carbamoyl phosphatesynthetase-II, the enzyme
is cytosolic enzyme is a- cytosolic enzyme.
In this reaction, 2 ATP molecules are consumed.
HCO3
–
(Carbonic acid) + Glutamine (Gln) → CarbamoylPhosphate + 2 AMP
Step 2: Synthesis Carbamoyl Aspartate
Carbamoyl phosphate is condensing with Aspartic acid it forms carbamoyl
aspartate is catalyzed by Aspartate Transcarbamoylase (ATCase).
Carbamoyl Phosphate + Aspartate → Carbamoyl Aspartate + H3PO4
Step 3: Ring Closure to form dihydroorotate:
Carbamoyl Aspartate is converted into Dihydro Orotate by ring closure
mechanism.
This reaction is catalyzed by Dihydro Orotase.
Carbamoyl Aspartate → Dihydro Orotate + H20
3. Step 4: Oxidation of dihydroorotate
The hydro Orotate irreversibly oxidized to Orotate the enzyme Dihydro
Orotate Dehydrogenase.
The Eukaryotic enzyme, which contains FMN and Non-heme iron, is located
on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane where quinines
supply its oxidizing power.
Oxidized Dihydro Orotate + Quinone → Orotate + Reduced Quinone
(quinone gains a hydrogen q---qh2)
Step 5: Addition of Ribose-Phosphate Moiety
Orotate reacts with PRPP to yield Orotidine-5-MonoPhosphate (OMP).
This reaction is catalyzed by Orotate Phosphoribosyltransferase.
In this reaction, a pyrophosphate is released from the PRPP molecules.
Orotate + PRPP → OMP + PPi
Step 6: Decarboxylation to form UMP
The final reaction of the pathway is the decarboxylation of OMP by the OMP
decarboxylase to form UMP this is an unusual reaction in that it requires no
cofactors.
OMP → UMP + CO2
4. Synthesis of UTP and CTP
The synthesis of UTP forms UMP, done by phosphate exchange mechanism.
This reaction is catalyzed by nucleoside monophosphate kinase and
Nucleoside diphosphate Kinase.
UMP + ATP ↔ UDP + ADP
UDP + ATP ↔ UTP + ADP
5. CTP is formed by the amination of UTP by CTP synthetase. In animals, the amino
group is donated by Glutamine whereas in bacteria it is supplied directly in
Ammonia.
UTP + Gln +ATP + H2O → CTP + Glu + ADP + Pi
The Synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives is TTP, CTP, and UTP.
6. 1. How are pyrimidines synthesized?
Pyrimidines are synthesized from amines using a series ofreactions called the
synthesis of purines. These reactions are turned on by the enzyme
polynucleotide phosphorylaseholoenzyme. This is an important molecule, as
it allows RNA to be converted into nucleic acids that can then serve as a
template for synthesizing DNA until later in development when they become
functional chromosomes. It makes genes necessary for cell division and
maintenance ofclosed organelles suchas mitochondria in eukaryotic cells that
produce energy via ATP synthase.
2. How many steps are there in pyrimidine synthesis?
There are six steps in pyrimidine synthesis. The growth and division of living
organisms require a constantsupply of energy. In eukaryotes, it takes place in
the form of ATP from adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Phosphorylation is
required for mitochondrial function, where glucose can be used to produce
ATP via oxidative phosphorylation. A free-radical oxidation pathway
involves glycolysis—which releases pyruvate to run three different metabolic
pathways: the citric acid cycle, pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), and Krebs—
which allows mitochondria to get energy from glucose by converting it into
acetyl-CoA. The acyl group is used to make fatty acids in a process called
ketogenesis, powered by oxidizing glucose via oxidative phosphorylation
using FAD instead of NAD, which can happen during photosynthesis.
3. What is the product of pyrimidine synthesis?
Pyrimidine synthesis produces uracil, which is a component of RNA.
4. What was the first pyrimidine synthesized?
The first pyrimidine synthesized was acetic acid cyanamide.
5. What is required for pyrimidine ring synthesis?
7. It is required to have a nitrogen atom in the correct position on the molecule
to allow carbon-nitrogen double bonds to form.
6. How is pyrimidine metabolized?
Pyrimidine is metabolized by the liver. Pyrimidine is converted into uracil,
which is eliminated in the urine.
7. What is the end product of pyrimidine metabolism?
The end productofpyrimidine metabolism is uracil (U), which is a by-product
of the breakdown of cytosine.
8. Why is pyrimidine metabolism important?
Pyrimidine metabolism is essential becausepyrimidines are essential forDNA
synthesis.
9. Which enzyme of pyrimidine synthesis is inhibited by CTP and activated
by ATP?
The enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of UTP to TTP is inhibited by CTP
and activated by ATP.
8. DNA REPLICATION
DNA replication is the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself during cell
division.
1. The first step in DNA replication is to ‘unzip’ the double helix structure
of the DNA? molecule.
2. This is carried out by an enzyme? called helicase which breaks
the hydrogen bonds? holding the complementary? bases? of DNA together (A
with T, C with G).
3. The separation of the two single strands of DNA creates a ‘Y’ shape
called a replication ‘fork’. The two separated strands will act as templates for
making the new strands of DNA.
4. One of the strands is oriented in the 3’ to 5’ direction (towards the
replication fork), this is the leading strand?. The other strand is oriented in the
5’ to 3’ direction (away from the replication fork), this is the lagging strand?.
As a result of their different orientations, the two strands are replicated
differently:
9. An illustration to show replication of the leading and lagging strands of DNA.

1. Leading Strand:
2. A short piece of RNA? called a primer? (produced by an enzyme called
primase) comes along and binds to the end of the leading strand. The primer
acts as the starting point for DNA synthesis.
3. DNA polymerase? binds to the leading strand and then ‘walks’ along
with it, adding new complementary? nucleotide? bases (A, C, G, and T) to the
strand of DNA in the 5’ to 3’ direction.
4. This sort of replication is called continuous.
1. Lagging strand:
2. Numerous RNA primers are made by the primase enzyme and bind at
various points along the lagging strand.
10. 3. Chunks of DNA, called Okazaki fragments, are then added to the
lagging strand also in the 5’ to 3’ direction.
4. This type of replication is called discontinuous as the Okazaki
fragments will need to be joined up later.
1. Once all of the bases are matched up (A with T, C with G), an enzyme
called exonuclease strips away the primer(s). The gaps where the primer(s)
are then filled by yet more complementary nucleotides.
2. The new strand is proofread to make sure there are no mistakes in the
new DNA sequence.
3. Finally, an enzyme called DNA ligase? seals up the sequence of DNA
into two continuous double strands.
4. The result of DNA replication is two DNA molecules consisting of one
new and one old chain of nucleotides. This is why DNA replication is
described as semi-conservative, half of the chain is part of the original DNA
molecule, and half is brand new.
5. Following replication, the new DNA automatically winds up into a
double helix.
