Rab7 GAP TBC1D15 deficiency causes excessive AV-Mito tethering and AV retrograde transport defects in tauopathy axons. ( A and B ) Representative images ( A ) and quantitative analysis ( B ) of AV-Mito contact tethering in non-Tg and tauP301S Tg axons after 24-hour trehalose treatment with and without CID 1067700 (80 nM). The data were expressed as AV-Mito contact number per 100 μm axonal length in non-Tg or tauP301S neurons. Data were collected from three dissections; the total numbers of neurons ( n ) are indicated in parentheses ( B ). Arrows: AV-Mito contacts. ( C - F ) Representative blots ( C and E ) and quantitative analysis ( D and F ) of protein levels in the brain of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) patients and 8-month-old <t>tauP301L</t> Tg <t>(rTg4510)</t> mice. Protein intensities were normalized to those in control human subjects or non-Tg mice. Data were quantified from four independent experiments. ( G - J ) Representative kymographs ( G ) and quantitative analysis ( H - J ) of AV-Mito contacts in tauP301S axons with TBC1D15 overexpression (OE). The data were quantified and expressed as AV-Mito contact duration and its frequency, the contact number per 100 μm axonal length, the percentage of AVs in contacts, and the relative motility of AVs in tauP301S axons with and without TBC1D15 OE, compared to those of non-Tg axons in the presence of trehalose (100 mM). Data were quantified from the total numbers of neurons ( n ) or AV-Mito contacts ( c ) as indicated in parentheses ( H - J ) from three dissections. Arrows: AV-Mito contacts. Data were expressed as the mean ± SEM and analyzed using linear mixed-effects models ( B and H - J ) or two-sided Student’s t -test ( D and F ). Scale bars: 10 μm.

(E) Contextual fear conditioning task performed in 8-month-old non-Tg and MAPT/Tau P301S Tg male mice supplemented with regular water or Gln ( n = 7-10 male mice per group). (F) Schematic illustration of anaplerotic stimulation of OXPHOS to power mitochondrial biosynthesis and supply of PE for AV biogenesis which enhances pathological MAPT/tau clearance in tauopathy neurons. Therefore, autophagy dysfunction and MAPT/tau accumulation can be attributed to mitochondrial bioenergetic deficiency in tauopathy. Data were shown as the mean ± SEM and analyzed with mann-whitney U test (A) or kruskal-wallis one-way analysis of variance test with Bonferroni’s correction (B-E).

The vertical and horizontal axes indicate individual animals and DEGs, respectively. ( B ) Summary of GO enrichment analysis. GO terms enriched in down- or up-regulated DEGs were ranked according to q value, and the top 10 terms in each pairwise comparison were extracted. A circle indicates significant enrichment ( q value < 0.05) of the GO term in the comparison, while its color and intensity indicate the direction (up/down) and q value of enrichment, respectively. GO terms are ordered and grouped according to automatically detected communities based on the similarity of comprising genes. ( C ) Heatmap illustrating the relative expression of representative genes in five categories. Vertical and horizontal axes indicate group mean and genes, respectively. The top 10 DEGs at the probe level contributing to significantly enriched GO terms in each pairwise comparison for each category were extracted and integrated. To improve visibility, probes indicating the same gene were summarized by the mean.
