Item Apolipoprotein ε4 Is Associated with Lower Brain Volume in Cognitively Normal Chinese but Not White Older Adults(PLoS, 2016-06-17) Yokoyama, Jennifer S.; Lee, Allen K.L.; Takada, Leonel T.; Busovaca, Edgar; Bonham, Luke W.; Chao, Steven Z.; Tse, Marian; He, Jing; Schwarz, Christopher G.; Carmichael, Owen T.; Matthews, Brandy R.; Karydas, Anna; Weiner, Michael W.; Coppola, Giovanni; DeCarli, Charles S.; Miller, Bruce L.; Rosen, Howard J.; Department of Neurology, IU School of MedicineStudying ethnically diverse groups is important for furthering our understanding of biological mechanisms of disease that may vary across human populations. The ε4 allele of apolipoprotein E (APOE ε4) is a well-established risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), and may confer anatomic and functional effects years before clinical signs of cognitive decline are observed. The allele frequency of APOE ε4 varies both across and within populations, and the size of the effect it confers for dementia risk may be affected by other factors. Our objective was to investigate the role APOE ε4 plays in moderating brain volume in cognitively normal Chinese older adults, compared to older white Americans. We hypothesized that carrying APOE ε4 would be associated with reduced brain volume and that the magnitude of this effect would be different between ethnic groups. We performed whole brain analysis of structural MRIs from Chinese living in America (n = 41) and Shanghai (n = 30) and compared them to white Americans (n = 71). We found a significant interaction effect of carrying APOE ε4 and being Chinese. The APOE ε4xChinese interaction was associated with lower volume in bilateral cuneus and left middle frontal gyrus (Puncorrected<0.001), with suggestive findings in right entorhinal cortex and left hippocampus (Puncorrected<0.01), all regions that are associated with neurodegeneration in AD. After correction for multiple testing, the left cuneus remained significantly associated with the interaction effect (PFWE = 0.05). Our study suggests there is a differential effect of APOE ε4 on brain volume in Chinese versus white cognitively normal elderly adults. This represents a novel finding that, if verified in larger studies, has implications for how biological, environmental and/or lifestyle factors may modify APOE ε4 effects on the brain in diverse populations.Item Clinicopathological correlations in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia(Oxford University Press, 2017-12-01) Perry, David C.; Brown, Jesse A.; Possin, Katherine L.; Datta, Samir; Trujillo, Andrew; Radke, Anneliese; Karydas, Anna; Kornak, John; Sias, Ana C.; Rabinovici, Gil D.; Gorno-Tempini, Maria Luisa; Boxer, Adam L.; May, Mary De; Rankin, Katherine P.; Sturm, Virginia E.; Lee, Suzee E.; Matthews, Brandy R.; Kao, Aimee W.; Vossel, Keith A.; Tartaglia, Maria Carmela; Miller, Zachary A.; Seo, Sang Won; Sidhu, Manu; Gaus, Stephanie E.; Nana, Alissa L.; Vargas, Jose Norberto S.; Hwang, Ji-Hye L.; Ossenkoppele, Rik; Brown, Alainna B.; Huang, Eric J.; Coppola, Giovanni; Rosen, Howard J.; Geschwind, Daniel; Trojanowski, John Q.; Grinberg, Lea T.; Kramer, Joel H.; Miller, Bruce L.; Seely, William W.; Neurology, School of MedicineAccurately predicting the underlying neuropathological diagnosis in patients with behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) poses a daunting challenge for clinicians but will be critical for the success of disease-modifying therapies. We sought to improve pathological prediction by exploring clinicopathological correlations in a large bvFTD cohort. Among 438 patients in whom bvFTD was either the top or an alternative possible clinical diagnosis, 117 had available autopsy data, including 98 with a primary pathological diagnosis of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), 15 with Alzheimer's disease, and four with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis who lacked neurodegenerative disease-related pathology outside of the motor system. Patients with FTLD were distributed between FTLD-tau (34 patients: 10 corticobasal degeneration, nine progressive supranuclear palsy, eight Pick's disease, three frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism associated with chromosome 17, three unclassifiable tauopathy, and one argyrophilic grain disease); FTLD-TDP (55 patients: nine type A including one with motor neuron disease, 27 type B including 21 with motor neuron disease, eight type C with right temporal lobe presentations, and 11 unclassifiable including eight with motor neuron disease), FTLD-FUS (eight patients), and one patient with FTLD-ubiquitin proteasome system positive inclusions (FTLD-UPS) that stained negatively for tau, TDP-43, and FUS. Alzheimer's disease was uncommon (6%) among patients whose only top diagnosis during follow-up was bvFTD. Seventy-nine per cent of FTLD-tau, 86% of FTLD-TDP, and 88% of FTLD-FUS met at least 'possible' bvFTD diagnostic criteria at first presentation. The frequency of the six core bvFTD diagnostic features was similar in FTLD-tau and FTLD-TDP, suggesting that these features alone cannot be used to separate patients by major molecular class. Voxel-based morphometry revealed that nearly all pathological subgroups and even individual patients share atrophy in anterior cingulate, frontoinsula, striatum, and amygdala, indicating that degeneration of these regions is intimately linked to the behavioural syndrome produced by these diverse aetiologies. In addition to these unifying features, symptom profiles also differed among pathological subtypes, suggesting distinct anatomical vulnerabilities and informing a clinician's prediction of pathological diagnosis. Data-driven classification into one of the 10 most common pathological diagnoses was most accurate (up to 60.2%) when using a combination of known predictive factors (genetic mutations, motor features, or striking atrophy patterns) and the results of a discriminant function analysis that incorporated clinical, neuroimaging, and neuropsychological data.Item Genetic meta-analysis of diagnosed Alzheimer's disease identifies new risk loci and implicates Aβ, tau, immunity and lipid processing(Springer Nature, 2019-03) Kunkle, Brian W.; Grenier-Boley, Benjamin; Sims, Rebecca; Bis, Joshua C.; Damotte, Vincent; Naj, Adam C.; Boland, Anne; Vronskaya, Maria; van der Lee, Sven J.; Amlie-Wolf, Alexandre; Bellenguez, Céline; Frizatti, Aura; Chouraki, Vincent; Martin, Eden R.; Sleegers, Kristel; Badarinarayan, Nandini; Jakobsdottir, Johanna; Hamilton-Nelson, Kara L.; Moreno-Grau, Sonia; Olaso, Robert; Raybould, Rachel; Chen, Yuning; Kuzma, Amanda B.; Hiltunen, Mikko; Morgan, Taniesha; Ahmad, Shahzad; Vardarajan, Badri N.; Epelbaum, Jacques; Hoffmann, Per; Boada, Merce; Beecham, Gary W.; Garnier, Jean-Guillaume; Harold, Denise; Fitzpatrick, Annette L.; Valladares, Otto; Moutet, Marie-Laure; Gerrish, Amy; Smith, Albert V.; Qu, Liming; Bacq, Delphine; Denning, Nicola; Jian, Xueqiu; Zhao, Yi; Del Zompo, Maria; Fox, Nick C.; Choi, Seung-Hoan; Mateo, Ignacio; Hughes, Joseph T.; Adams, Hieab H.; Malamon, John; Sanchez-Garcia, Florentino; Patel, Yogen; Brody, Jennifer A.; Dombroski, Beth A.; Deniz Naranjo, Maria Candida; Daniilidou, Makrina; Eiriksdottir, Gudny; Mukherjee, Shubhabrata; Wallon, David; Uphill, James; Aspelund, Thor; Cantwell, Laura B.; Garzia, Fabienne; Galimberti, Daniela; Hofer, Edith; Butkiewicz, Mariusz; Fin, Bertrand; Scarpini, Elio; Sarnowski, Chloe; Bush, Will S.; Meslage, Stéphane; Kornhuber, Johannes; White, Charles C.; Song, Yuenjoo; Barber, Robert C.; Engelborghs, Sebastiaan; Sordon, Sabrina; Voijnovic, Dina; Adams, Perrie M.; Vandenberghe, Rik; Mayhaus, Manuel; Cupples, L.

To identify LOAD risk loci, we performed a large genome-wide association meta-analysis of clinically diagnosed LOAD (94,437 individuals). We confirm 20 previous LOAD risk loci and identify five new genome-wide loci (IQCK, ACE, ADAM10, ADAMTS1, and WWOX), two of which (ADAM10, ACE) were identified in a recent genome-wide association (GWAS)-by-familial-proxy of Alzheimer's or dementia. Fine-mapping of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region confirms the neurological and immune-mediated disease haplotype HLA-DR15 as a risk factor for LOAD. Pathway analysis implicates immunity, lipid metabolism, tau binding proteins, and amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism, showing that genetic variants affecting APP and Aβ processing are associated not only with early-onset autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease but also with LOAD. Analyses of risk genes and pathways show enrichment for rare variants (P = 1.32 × 10-7), indicating that additional rare variants remain to be identified. We also identify important genetic correlations between LOAD and traits such as family history of dementia and education.
