Accumulating evidence leads to suggest that bone marrow-derived EPCs for repairing endothelial damage is now considered as an important novel potential therapeutic option for vascular repair (7, 8) . In critical patients in the course of COVID-19, EPCs may have an important contribution to stem cell treatments to maintain vascular endothelin functions. In critical patients who do not respond to current treatment, the restoration of vascular endothelial function and modulation of immune system by synergistic use of EPCs and MSCs may have a crucial role to overcome the vascular collapse driving forces in COVID-19 patients. ./cache/cord-258670-dphg8ukj.txt ./txt/cord-258670-dphg8ukj.txt
