Core Tip |
Based on the biological characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells, especially umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs), and the first clinical trial using MSCs for Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) treatment, we discuss the use of UC-MSCs to improve COVID-19 symptoms. UC-MSCs are suitable therapeutic candidates for COVID-19. Indeed, they are the strongest immunomodulatory MSCs and exhibit low immunogenicity compared with bone marrow-derived MSCs, adipose tissue-derived MSCs, and other MSCs. UC-MSCs are easily collected and expanded in vitro with minimal ethical concerns. In summary, UC-MSCs can be used to improve severe-stage COVID-19 patient symptoms by suppressing inflammation and stimulating wound healing. |
