Scientists used stem cells to recreate the growth of Lewy bodies in human neurons to gain insight into why and how they form.

Researchers have replicated the formation of Lewy bodies and revealed the key role of immune challenge in the process.

To recreate in the laboratory the formation of Lewy bodies as they would occur in a Parkinson’s patient, two ingredients are required: the protein α-synuclein and the participation of the immune ...

Apr. 16, 2024 — A new study offers a first look into the complex molecular changes that occur in brain cells with Lewy bodies, which are key pathological hallmarks of Parkinson's disease and ...
