Feline Chronic Gingivostomatitis

Feline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCGS) is a painful, chronic inflammatory disease of the oral cavity that can significantly affect a cat’s ability to eat, groom, and maintain a good quality of life. Explore FCGS symptoms, disease biology, diagnosis,  treatment and management, and ongoing stem cell research through Gallant’s scientific and educational resources.

A Challenging Disease to Manage

While many cats improve with conventional management, some continue to experience significant inflammation and pain despite treatment. These refractory cases can be especially difficult to manage and highlight the need for additional treatment options.

Gallant’s Work in FCGS

Gallant is investigating regenerative medicine approaches for refractory FCGS. Our research is exploring the potential of mesenchymal stromal cells and their immunomodulatory properties in cats whose disease has not responded adequately to conventional care.
