Figure Lengend Snippet: (A–F) Immunohistochemistry technique for capturing SNPH intrusion in PC dendrites. Shown is SNPH (green), Syt2 (red), and Calbindin (blue) labeling in 3.5-month-old WT (A, C, and E) and Shi (B, D, and F) mice. Scale bar, 10 μm. (G and H) High magnification of the maximum intensity projection image from the z stack through dendritic regions of WT (G) and Shi (H). (I and J) Orthogonal (slice) view of SNPH punctum (indicated by arrows in panels G and H) in the dendritic region from WT (I) and Shi (J) in x-z and y-z orientations, respectively. (K) Quantification of percentage area occupied by SNPH within the dendritic volume from 3 mice of each group. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05. (L–N) Capturing SNPH intrusion by pre-tagging dendritic mitochondria in vivo using viral transduction. (L) Technique to selectively transduce PCs with AAV-Mito-mCherry. (M) Demonstration of successful pre-tagging of mitochondria in dendrites of a single PC by Calbindin staining. Scale bar, 10 μm. (N) Demonstration of how pre-tagged dendritic mitochondria in PCs are used to capture SNPH intrusion by 3D rotation. (O and P) Single dendritic tree in WT (O) or Shi (P) pre-tagged with Mito-mCherry (red) and SNPH intrusion (green) captured by co-rotation with Mito-mCherry. Merged images show the fraction of dendritic mitochondria anchored by intruded SNPH (yellow). (Q and R) Percentage of PCs with SNPH intrusions (Q) and percentage of SNPH bound to mitochondria per dendritic tree (R) from WT (n = 73) and Shi (n = 106) PCs. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. ***p < 0.005.

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A and B) Representative images of lentivirally transduced GFP-SNPH (1–469) (A) and GFP-SNPH (B) in PCs of SNPH-KO mice injected with saline (no harmaline, vehicle only). (C-H) Effect of harmaline on GFP-SNPH (1–469)-transduced (C) and GFP-SNPH-transduced (F) PC dendrites. Degenerating dendrites in GFP-SNPH-transduced PCs can be seen in (F). Also shown is Calbindin labeling of GFP SNPH (1–469) (D) and GFP-SNPH (G) from (C) and (F). Merged images of GFP SNPH (1–469) and GFP-SNPH with Calbindin are shown in (E) and (H), respectively. (I–K) Representative image of a harmaline-induced degenerating PC (white arrow in I) transduced with GFP-SNPH. Calbindin staining from the same section is shown in (J), whereas a merged image is shown in (K). Scale bars, 20 μm. (L) Quantification of dendritic shrinkage in GFP-SNPH (1–469)- and GFP-SNPH-transduced PCs in the absence (n = 3 mice, vehicle only) or presence of harmaline (n = 5 mice). Data are shown as mean ± SEM. ***p < 0.001.
