Inclusion bodies are aggregates of specific types of protein found in neurons, and a number of tissue cells including red blood cells, bacteria, viruses, and plants. Inclusion bodies of aggregations of multiple proteins are also found in muscle cells affected by inclusion body myositis and hereditary inclusion body myopathy. [1]
Lipids: Lipids, which are stored as triglycerides, are the common form of inclusions. They are stored not only in specialized cells but also are located as individuals droplets in various cell types, especially hepatocytes. [3] These are fluid at body temperature and appear in living cells as refractile spherical droplets. Lipids yield more ...

I-cells, also called inclusion cells, are abnormal fibroblasts having a large number of dark inclusions in the cytoplasm of the cell (mainly in the central area). Inclusion bodies are nuclear or cytoplasmic aggregates of stainable substances, usually proteins. [ 1 ]

Segregation of toxic protein aggregates into JUNQ and IPOD inclusion bodies is a means by which mammalian cells can be rejuvenated through asymmetric division. [ 5 ] Thus, the discovery of JUNQ and IPOD provided a new striking perspective of how cells manage misfolded aggregated proteins and gave convincing proof that protein aggregation is a ...
Top panels show a 60× magnification of the alpha-synuclein intraneuronal inclusions aggregated to form Lewy bodies. The bottom panels are 20× magnification images that show strand-like Lewy neurites and rounded Lewy bodies of various sizes. Neuromelanin-laden cells of the substantia nigra are visible in the background.
Russell bodies are inclusion bodies usually found in atypical plasma cells that become known as Mott cells. [1] Russell bodies are eosinophilic , homogeneous immunoglobulin (Ig)-containing inclusions usually found in cells undergoing excessive synthesis of Ig; the Russell body is characteristic of the distended endoplasmic reticulum .
