New research reveals that immune responses play a crucial role in the formation of Lewy bodies, protein aggregates that mark Parkinson's disease and other neurological conditions. Using human stem cells, scientists recreated Lewy bodies in dopaminergic neurons by combining alpha-synuclein protein buildup with immune stimulation.
