Fig. 6: Proteome and transcriptome analyses revealing the Hippo signaling pathway mediating the neuroprotective effects of IDE.

Comparative statistical histogram of DEGs in the SN (A) and STR (B) of each group of mice (n = 3 each group). Quantitative results of DEPs in the SN (C) and STR (D) of each group of mice (n = 3 per group). The volcano plots between A53T + IDE/A53T + Vector groups revealed the up (red) or downregulated (blue) DEGs in SN (E) and STR (F) in mice (n = 3 per group). Volcano plot of DEPs associated with the SN (G) and STR (H) in A53T + IDE/A53T + Vector groups, with significant upregulations as red dots and significant downregulations as blue dots (n = 3 per group). Considering all DEGs and DEPs in A53T + IDE/A53T + Vector groups, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses identified the top 10 pathways in the transcriptome in SN (I), along with the proteomics in STR (J), respectively (n = 3 per group).
