Abstract:

Coronavirus disease-2019(COVID-19) is a potentially fatal infectious disease. COVID-19 can seriously damage the immune system, leading to the over-activation of immune cells, so that a large number of inflammatory cytokines are released, forming cytokine storm, thereby exacerbating tissue damage and disease development. To effectively control inflammatory storm has become a key point in the treatment of patients with COVID-19. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can effectively control abnormal immune response and inhibit damage to multiple human organs due to the virtue of low immunogenicity and regulating ability to both innate and adaptive immunity. According to the characteristics of immune dysfunction in COVID-19 patients and previous studies, MSCs may have a good effect on treatment of COVID-19. This article focuses on analyzing changes of innate and adaptive immune responses in COVID-19 patients and elucidates the regulation mechanism of MSCs on immunity, in order to provide new insights and theory for clinical immunotherapy in COVID-19 patients.

Key words: Coronavirus disease-2019, Immune function, Mesenchymal stem cells
