Emerging data implicate potential roles for T cells in Parkinson's disease (PD); however, direct evidence for human T cells in PD-associated neurodegeneration has been lacking. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Sommer et al. (2018) demonstrate that IL-17-producing T cells from sporadic PD patients promote cell death of patient iPSC-derived midbrain neurons.
新出现的数据表明 T 细胞可能在帕金森病(PD)中发挥作用;然而,直接证明 T 细胞在 PD 相关神经退行性变中的作用一直缺乏。在本期《Cell Stem Cell》中,Sommer 等人(2018)证明了来自散发性 PD 患者的产生白介素-17 的 T 细胞促进了患者诱导多能干细胞来源的中脑细胞死亡。
