Research updates, July 22 - The Sick Times
A treatment for cats with a COVID-related infection may help advance Long COVID research. In a small study in Stem Cells Translation Medicine, researchers treated 10 cats who got feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), a feline coronavirus infection that triggers immune dysfunction, and found that those who received a combination of the antiviral drug GS-441524 and mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSC) therapy had “enhanced immune recovery.”
