MG132 and cycloheximide were purchased from Sigma. Phosphatase inhibitor (PhosSTOP™) and protease inhibitor cocktails (cOmplete™, Mini, EDTA-free) were obtained from Roche. Primary antibodies used in this study included antibodies directed against human Tau (Dako), Otub1, Ubiquitin-Lys48-specific, Ubiquitin-Lys63-specific (Abcam), Phospho-Tau (Ser202/Thr205) AT8, Phospho-Tau (Thr231) AT180, Phospho-Tau (Thr212/Ser214) AT100 (Thermo Fisher Scientific), and Oligomeric-Tau T22 (Merck), applied in combination with appropriate horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or Alexa Fluor® (488/568/647) coupled secondary antibodies.

Brains were quickly removed after decapitation. Striatum and midbrain samples were obtained at 0 °C and subsequently homogenized using Disposable Pellet Mixers with Pestle Motor (VWR). Tissue homogenates were prepared in RIPA buffer; pH 7.5, containing 10% Triton 500 μl, 5 μl aprotinin, PMSF 50 μl, Na3VO4 100 μl and NaF 20 μl in 4.32 ml PBS. Extracts were clarified by centrifugation at 4 °C (13,200g for 20 min). Supernatants were collected and eluted with RIPA buffer, and the proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE [45 (link)]. The primary antibodies used were: β-Tubulin (#05-661, Millipore), β-Actin (Abcam, ab6276, AC15), HA-Tag (C29F4) (#3724, Cell Signalling), Tyrosine Hydroxylase (MAB318, Sigma Aldrich), α-synuclein (610787, BD Transduction Laboratories™), DAT (MAB369, Merckmillipore), LC3 (5F10, Nanotools Antibodies), Tom20 (D8T4N) (#42406, Cell Signalling), Mitofusin-2 (D2D10) (#9482, Cell Signalling), DRP1 (D6C7) (#8570, Cell Signalling), Phospho-Tau Ser202/Thr205 (AT8) (#MN1020, ThermoFisher), and Dopamine D2 Receptor (AB5084P, Merckmillipore). The rabbit anti-mouse (GE healthcare UK, NA934V), or mouse anti-rabbit (GE health UK, NA931V) were used to react with the corresponding primary antibodies. Immunoreactive bands were visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence (GE Healthcare). Densitometry analysis on the bands was calculated using ImageJ software.

Proteins were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) using 12–15% gels and transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. Membranes were then incubated with the following primary antibodies: β-Amyloid (1–42 Specific, D9A3A, Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA, Cat. No. 14974S), Tau (HT7, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA, Cat. No. MN1000), Phospho-Tau (Ser202, Thr205, AT8, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat. No. MN1020), GAPDH (H-12, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Cat. No. sc-166574), and IFITM3 (F-41, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Cat. No. sc-100768). Peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit and anti-mouse secondary antibodies (Sigma-Aldrich, Cat. No. A0545 and A2554) for ECL substrate (GE Healthcare, Barrington, IL, USA) were then employed. To check the quality of p-tau bands, we used CIP at 10 and 40 units (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA, USA, Cat. No. M0290) for 60 min at 37 °C. It is important to note that the original blots were cut before hybridization with antibodies. For this reason, full-length blots cannot be provided. The images in Supplementary Fig. S9 depict the blots after cropping.

Brains were quickly removed after decapitation. Striatum and midbrain samples were obtained at 0°C and subsequently homogenized using Disposable Pellet Mixers with Pestle Motor (VWR). Tissue homogenates were prepared in RIPA buffer; pH 7.5, containing 10% Triton 500μl, 5μl aprotinin, PMSF 50μl, Na 3 VO 4 100μl and NaF 20μl in 4.32 ml PBS. Extracts were clari ed by centrifugation at 4°C (13,200 g for 20 minutes). Supernatants were collected and eluted with RIPA buffer, and the proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE (43) . The primary antibodies used were: β-Tubulin (#05-661, Millipore), β-Actin (Abcam, ab6276, AC15), HA-Tag (C29F4) (#3724, Cell Signalling), Tyrosine Hydroxylase (MAB318, Sigma Aldrich), a-synuclein (610787, BD Transduction Laboratories™), DAT (MAB369, Merckmillipore), LC3 (5F10, Nanotools Antibodies), Tom20 (D8T4N) (#42406, Cell Signalling), Mitofusin-2 (D2D10) (#9482, Cell Signalling), DRP1 (D6C7) (#8570, Cell Signalling), Phospho-Tau Ser202/Thr205 (AT8) (#MN1020, ThermoFisher), and Dopamine D2 Receptor (AB5084P, Merckmillipore).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
