It is with great pleasure that we anounce that Work Group 1’s IMMUPARKNET paper has been published in Brain, entitled: “The immune system in Parkinson’s disease: what we know so far“. The manuscript collects the work of an number of our COST Action members under the coordination of WG 1 leader Marina Romero-Ramos, together with Cintia Roodveldt and Rodrigo Pacheco.
This review integrates the consolidated understanding of immune-related processes underlying the pathogenesis of PD, focusing on both central and peripheral immune cells, neuron-glia crosstalk as well as the central-peripheral immune interaction during the development of PD. The analysis made by IMMUPARKNET members authors of this manuscript provides a comprehensive view of the emerging knowledge of the mechanisms of immunity in PD and the implications of this for better understanding the overall pathogenesis of the disease.
