Item Altered bile acid profile associates with cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease—An emerging role for gut microbiome(Elsevier, 2019-01) MahmoudianDehkordi, Siamak; Arnold, Matthias; Nho, Kwangsik; Ahmad, Shahzad; Jia, Wei; Xie, Guoxiang; Louie, Gregory; Kueider‐Paisley, Alexandra; Moseley, M. Arthur; Thompson, J. Will; St John Williams, Lisa; Tenenbaum, Jessica D.; Blach, Colette; Baillie, Rebecca; Han, Xianlin; Bhattacharyya, Sudeepa; Toledo, Jon B.; Schafferer, Simon; Klein, Sebastian; Koal, Therese; Risacher, Shannon L.; Kling, Mitchel Allan; Motsinger‐Reif, Alison; Rotroff, Daniel M.; Jack, John; Hankemeier, Thomas; Bennett, David A.; De Jager, Philip L.; Trojanowski, John Q.; Shaw, Leslie M.; Weiner, Michael W.; Doraiswamy, P. Murali; van Duijn, Cornelia M.; Saykin, Andrew J.; Kastenmüller, Gabi; Kaddurah‐Daouk, Rima; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineIntroduction Increasing evidence suggests a role for the gut microbiome in central nervous system disorders and a specific role for the gut‐brain axis in neurodegeneration. Bile acids (BAs), products of cholesterol metabolism and clearance, are produced in the liver and are further metabolized by gut bacteria. They have major regulatory and signaling functions and seem dysregulated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods Serum levels of 15 primary and secondary BAs and their conjugated forms were measured in 1464 subjects including 370 cognitively normal older adults, 284 with early mild cognitive impairment, 505 with late mild cognitive impairment, and 305 AD cases enrolled in the AD Neuroimaging Initiative. We assessed associations of BA profiles including selected ratios with diagnosis, cognition, and AD‐related genetic variants, adjusting for confounders and multiple testing. Results In AD compared to cognitively normal older adults, we observed significantly lower serum concentrations of a primary BA (cholic acid [CA]) and increased levels of the bacterially produced, secondary BA, deoxycholic acid, and its glycine and taurine conjugated forms. An increased ratio of deoxycholic acid:CA, which reflects 7α‐dehydroxylation of CA by gut bacteria, strongly associated with cognitive decline, a finding replicated in serum and brain samples in the Rush Religious Orders and Memory and Aging Project. Several genetic variants in immune response–related genes implicated in AD showed associations with BA profiles. Discussion We report for the first time an association between altered BA profile, genetic variants implicated in AD, and cognitive changes in disease using a large multicenter study. These findings warrant further investigation of gut dysbiosis and possible role of gut‐liver‐brain axis in the pathogenesis of AD.Item Bile acids targeted metabolomics and medication classification data in the ADNI1 and ADNIGO/2 cohorts(Nature Research, 2019-10-17) St. John-Williams, Lisa; Mahmoudiandehkordi, Siamak; Arnold, Matthias; Massaro, Tyler; Blach, Colette; Kastenmüller, Gabi; Louie, Gregory; Kueider-Paisley, Alexandra; Han, Xianlin; Baillie, Rebecca; Motsinger-Reif, Alison A.; Rotroff, Daniel; Nho, Kwangsik; Saykin, Andrew J.; Risacher, Shannon L.; Koal, Therese; Moseley, M. Arthur; Tenenbaum, Jessica D.; Thompson, J. Will; Kaddurah-Daouk, Rima; Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative; Alzheimer’s Disease Metabolomics Consortium; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. The mechanism of disease development and progression is not well understood, but increasing evidence suggests multifactorial etiology, with a number of genetic, environmental, and aging-related factors. There is a growing body of evidence that metabolic defects may contribute to this complex disease. To interrogate the relationship between system level metabolites and disease susceptibility and progression, the AD Metabolomics Consortium (ADMC) in partnership with AD Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) is creating a comprehensive biochemical database for patients in the ADNI1 cohort. We used the Biocrates Bile Acids platform to evaluate the association of metabolic levels with disease risk and progression. We detail the quantitative metabolomics data generated on the baseline samples from ADNI1 and ADNIGO/2 (370 cognitively normal, 887 mild cognitive impairment, and 305 AD). Similar to our previous reports on ADNI1, we present the tools for data quality control and initial analysis. This data descriptor represents the third in a series of comprehensive metabolomics datasets from the ADMC on the ADNI.Item Sex and APOE ε4 genotype modify the Alzheimer’s disease serum metabolome(Springer Nature, 2020) Arnold, Matthias; Nho, Kwangsik; Kueider-Paisley, Alexandra; Massaro, Tyler; Huynh, Kevin; Brauner, Barbara; MahmoudianDehkordi, Siamak; Louie, Gregory; Moseley, M. Arthur; Thompson, J. Will; St. John-Williams, Lisa; Tenenbaum, Jessica D.; Blach, Colette; Chang, Rui; Brinton, Roberta D.; Baillie, Rebecca; Han, Xianlin; Trojanowski, John Q.; Shaw, Leslie M.; Martins, Ralph; Weiner, Michael W.; Trushina, Trushina; Toledo, Jon B.; Meikle, Peter J.; Bennett, David A.; Krumsiek, Jan; Doraiswamy, P. Murali; Saykin, Andrew J.; Kaddurah-Daouk, Rima; Kastenmüller, Gabi; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineLate-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD) can, in part, be considered a metabolic disease. Besides age, female sex and APOE ε4 genotype represent strong risk factors for AD that also give rise to large metabolic differences. We systematically investigated group-specific metabolic alterations by conducting stratified association analyses of 139 serum metabolites in 1,517 individuals from the AD Neuroimaging Initiative with AD biomarkers. We observed substantial sex differences in effects of 15 metabolites with partially overlapping differences for APOE ε4 status groups. Several group-specific metabolic alterations were not observed in unstratified analyses using sex and APOE ε4 as covariates. Combined stratification revealed further subgroup-specific metabolic effects limited to APOE ε4+ females. The observed metabolic alterations suggest that females experience greater impairment of mitochondrial energy production than males. Dissecting metabolic heterogeneity in AD pathogenesis can therefore enable grading the biomedical relevance for specific pathways within specific subgroups, guiding the way to personalized medicine.Item Use of Electronic Health Records to Support a Public Health Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic in the United States: A Perspective from Fifteen Academic Medical Centers(Oxford University Press, 2020-11-03) Madhavan, Subha; Bastarache, Lisa; Brown, Jeffrey S.; Dorr, David A.; Embi, Peter J.; Friedman, Charles P.; Johnson, Kevin B.; Moore, Jason H.; Kohane, Isaac S.; Payne, Philip R.O.; Tenenbaum, Jessica D.; Weiner, Mark G.; Wilcox, Adam B.; Ohno-Machado, Lucila; Butte, Atul J.; Medicine, School of MedicineOur goal is to summarize the collective experience of 15 organizations in dealing with uncoordinated efforts that result in unnecessary delays in understanding, predicting, preparing for, containing, and mitigating the COVID-19 pandemic in the US. Response efforts involve the collection and analysis of data corresponding to healthcare organizations, public health departments, socioeconomic indicators, as well as additional signals collected directly from individuals and communities. We focused on electronic health record (EHR) data, since EHRs can be leveraged and scaled to improve clinical care, research, and to inform public health decision-making. We outline the current challenges in the data ecosystem and the technology infrastructure that are relevant to COVID-19, as witnessed in our 15 institutions. The infrastructure includes registries and clinical data networks to support population-level analyses. We propose a specific set of strategic next steps to increase interoperability, overall organization, and efficiencies
