Vascularizing neurospheroids to probe vascular contributions to α-synuclein pathology in Parkinson's disease

Anika Alim, Sandra Lwin, Purnopama Saha…·Jungwook Paek

This study develops a vascularized brain model to investigate how vascular dysfunction contributes to Parkinson's disease pathology by inducing α-synuclein aggregation in neurons.
