The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by novel coronavirus 2019 in December 2019 has spread all around the globe and has caused a pandemic. There is still no current effective guidance on the clinical management of COVID-19. Mesenchymal stem cell therapy has been shown to be one of the therapeutic approaches to alleviate pneumonia and symptoms through their immunomo-dulatory effect in COVID-19 patients.
We describe the first confirmed case of COVID-19 in Hangzhou to explore the role of human menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) in the treatment of COVID-19. Moreover, we review the immunomodulation effect including non-specific and specific immune functions of MenSCs for the therapy of COVID-19.
MenSCs can be helpful to find a promising therapeutic approach for COVID-19.
2019年12月新型冠状病毒引发的2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)已在全球范围内传播并引发了大流行。目前对于COVID-19的临床管理仍没有有效的指导。间充质干细胞疗法已被证明是通过其对COVID-19患者的免疫调节作用来缓解肺炎和症状的治疗方法之一。
我们描述了杭州首例确诊的COVID-19病例,以探讨人月经血来源干细胞(MenSCs)在治疗COVID-19中的作用。此外,我们回顾了MenSCs的免疫调节作用,包括其对COVID-19治疗的非特异性和特异性免疫功能。
MenSCs有助于为COVID-19找到一种有前景的治疗方法。
