Figure Lengend Snippet: ( a , b) Representative sm-FISH images of the co-staining of EX neuronal marker ( SLC17A7 , red), IN neuronal marker ( GAD1 , purple), and target probe ( MAPT , MAPK1 , FKBP5 and ENC1 , green) in the EC ( a ) and the BA9 ( b ) of human brain without pathological hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases (54–66 years old); dotted ovals represent individual EX or IN neurons. Three independent experiments were repeated with similar results. Scale bar, 10 μm. ( c , d ) Comparison of the number of single RNAs of the target probe in individual EX and IN neuron in the EC ( c ) and the BA9 ( d ) regions (n = 4 human brains, 10 neurons from each case). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. The statistical significance was assessed by two-tailed unpaired t test with Welch’s correction. *** P < 0.0001 vs IN neurons (The statistic is t=8.061, df=47; t=6.181 df=42; t=10.77, df=39 (c); and t=7.981, df=48; t=4.675, df=56; t=12.60, df=41 (d), respectively.).

Article Snippet: Rat anti-somatostatin (SST) (Cat# MAB354) and mouse anti-NeuN (Cat# MAB377) monoclonal antibody and goat anti-GAD1 (Cat# AF2086) polyclonal antibody were purchased from Millipore and R&D Systems, respectively.

Figure Lengend Snippet: ( a) Representative western blot images of primary cortical neurons transduced with lentivirus expressing scrambled BAG3 or shBAG3, or overexpressing BAG3 (OE) as described in Online Methods. GAPDH is a housekeeping protein used as the loading control. Three independent experiments were repeated with similar results. Full length of the blot can be found in the . ( b ) The percentage of EX and IN neurons (n = 55 from 11 coverslips each group) with 12E8 (pS262 and/or pS356 tau)-positive (+) puncta (≥ 5) in the neurites was quantified as described in Online Methods. ( c ) Representative immunocytochemical images of 12E8+ (red) puncta (white arrow heads) in the neurites of TBR1+ (green) EX neurons. White arrow indicates a neuron with high expression of TBR1; yellow arrow indicates a neuron with low expression of TBR1. GAD1+ (purple) IN neurons were also transduced with shBAG3 lentivirus and tau was shown to accumulate in neurites (white arrowheads). Three independent experiments were repeated with similar results. ( d ) Representative immunocytochemical images of tau inclusions (green) in TBR1+ (red) EX neurons (white dotted circle) (white arrow, high expression of TBR1; yellow arrow, low expression of TBR1) and tau inclusions (green) in GAD1+ (purple) IN neurons (yellow dotted circle) transduced with different lentiviruses as described in Online Methods. The nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst33342 (blue). Three independent experiments were repeated with similar results. Scale bars, 50 μm ( c ); 20 μm ( d ). ( e , f ) The quantitation of the number of TBR1+ EX and GAD1+ IN neurons with tau inclusions (n = 80 region of interests (ROI) from 4 coverslips per group). ( b , e and f ) Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Statistical significance was assessed by nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test with the post hoc test of Dunn’s multiple comparisons. *** P < 0.0001 vs neurons transduced with scramble BAG3 (The Kruskal-Wallis statistic is 34.54, 164.6 and 20.09, respectively.).
