Stem Cells and COVID-19
presents up-to-date knowledge on the effect of hematopoietic and
mesenchymal stem cells to combat SARS-CoV-2 infection in its diagnosis,
treatment and prevention. In addition, the book critically discusses
challenges, highlighting outstanding questions and future perspectives.
Written by global experts in the field for both pre-clinical and
clinical practitioners, this comprehensive book delves into how stem
cells have a strong potential in developing better diagnostic, treatment
and preventive strategies in SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Both
hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells are critical to better
understand the response of immune system to coronavirus infection in
both healthy and co-morbid conditions in the development of effective
vaccines and immunotherapies.
- Focuses on diagnosis, treatment and prevention
- Presents
different aspects to enable researchers in the field to move toward
designing novel therapeutics in the treatment of COVID-19
- Provides coverage of challenges and future perspectives in this fast-moving field
