30Our aim in this study is to determine the positive effect of stem cell therapy applied on critically ill patients with coronavirus infection on DNA repair genes.
Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 infection are divided into two equal (n:30) groups. Group-1(n/15): Patients in critically ill condition receiving conventional therapy, Group-2 (n/15): Patients in critically ill condition receiving conventional therapy and systemically transplanted MSCs. The DNA repair pathway will be examined as 11 genes in 5 different parts. Investigated parameters:
Base excision repair
Nucleotide excision repair
Recombinational repair
Mismatch repair
Direct reversal Investigated parameters: broad biochemical analysis, apoptosis, clinical outcome, and mortality rates.
