Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is known to cause the new coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), in which many organs and systems such as the lung, heart, and immune system can be severely affected. Currently, the treatment process is generally based on supportive and palliative care. Some potential drugs are being tested for treatment. At this point, perhaps a promising treatment method for many diseases in the future seems to be stem cell therapy in recent times. Stem cell therapy in COVID-19 may be a treatment method that can play an important role, especially in resistant and severe cases. In this review, we summarized the potential mechanisms of stem cell therapy and developments in this treatment modality.
