This protocol is for T cell differentiation from mice spleen tissue to investigate T cell function (including differentiation and proliferation) in vitro.
The Leucine-rich repeat kinase-2 (LRRK2) G2019S mutation, resulting in aberrantly enhanced kinase activity, is one of the well-recognized genetic risk factors in Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Increased LRRK2 activity was also observed in immune…

Neuromelanin in the substantia nigra may be a key factor contributing to dopaminergic neuron vulnerability in Parkinson’s disease. Here, the authors investigated the relative composition and specific roles of pheomelanin and eumelanin in PD.
