In situ PLA on human brain tissue confirms colocalization between hyperphosphorylated tau (AT8) and LC3. a-d The white signal shows the PLA dots in healthy controls and patients, respectively. In merged pictures, PLA staining (red) and DAPI (blue) are shown in FAD, CBD and PSP. PLA dots are rarely observed in control individuals. e-h High magnification of the boxed area from the merged pictures. Asterisks show PLA signal close to the nucleus (white dashed line), and arrowheads indicate PLA signal distant from clearly visible cell soma in FAD, CBD and PSP patients. Scale: 10 μm. i In the graphs PLA signal (number of dots/field) are indicated as Mean value ± S.D. from healthy controls and patients
