Item A cross‐sectional study of α‐synuclein seed amplification assay in Alzheimer's disease neuroimaging initiative: Prevalence and associations with Alzheimer's disease biomarkers and cognitive function(Wiley, 2024) Tosun, Duygu; Hausle, Zachary; Iwaki, Hirotaka; Thropp, Pamela; Lamoureux, Jennifer; Lee, Edward B.; MacLeod, Karen; McEvoy, Sean; Nalls, Michael; Perrin, Richard J.; Saykin, Andrew J.; Shaw, Leslie M.; Singleton, Andrew B.; Lebovitz, Russ; Weiner, Michael W.; Blauwendraat, Cornelis; Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineIntroduction: Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology is defined by β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tau, but Lewy bodies (LBs; 𝛼-synuclein aggregates) are a common co-pathology for which effective biomarkers are needed. Methods: A validated α-synuclein Seed Amplification Assay (SAA) was used on recent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from 1638 Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) participants, 78 with LB-pathology confirmation at autopsy. We compared SAA outcomes with neuropathology, Aβ and tau biomarkers, risk-factors, genetics, and cognitive trajectories. Results: SAA showed 79% sensitivity and 97% specificity for LB pathology, with superior performance in identifying neocortical (100%) compared to limbic (57%) and amygdala-predominant (60%) LB-pathology. SAA+ rate was 22%, increasing with disease stage and age. Higher Aβ burden but lower CSF p-tau181 associated with higher SAA+ rates, especially in dementia. SAA+ affected cognitive impairment in MCI and Early-AD who were already AD biomarker positive. Discussion: SAA is a sensitive, specific marker for LB-pathology. Its increase in prevalence with age and AD stages, and its association with AD biomarkers, highlights the clinical importance of α-synuclein co-pathology in understanding AD's nature and progression. Highlights: SAA shows 79% sensitivity, 97% specificity for LB-pathology detection in AD. SAA positivity prevalence increases with disease stage and age. Higher Aβ burden, lower CSF p-tau181 linked with higher SAA+ rates in dementia. SAA+ impacts cognitive impairment in early disease stages. Study underpins need for wider LB-pathology screening in AD treatment.Item Characterizing Heterogeneity in Neuroimaging, Cognition, Clinical Symptoms, and Genetics Among Patients With Late-Life Depression(American Medical Association, 2022) Wen, Junhao; Fu, Cynthia H. Y.; Tosun, Duygu; Veturi, Yogasudha; Yang, Zhijian; Abdulkadir, Ahmed; Mamourian, Elizabeth; Srinivasan, Dhivya; Skampardoni, Ioanna; Singh, Ashish; Nawani, Hema; Bao, Jingxuan; Erus, Guray; Shou, Haochang; Habes, Mohamad; Doshi, Jimit; Varol, Erdem; Mackin, R. Scott; Sotiras, Aristeidis; Fan, Yong; Saykin, Andrew J.; Sheline, Yvette I.; Shen, Li; Ritchie, Marylyn D.; Wolk, David A.; Albert, Marilyn; Resnick, Susan M.; Davatzikos, Christos; iSTAGING consortium; ADNI; BIOCARD; BLSA; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineImportance: Late-life depression (LLD) is characterized by considerable heterogeneity in clinical manifestation. Unraveling such heterogeneity might aid in elucidating etiological mechanisms and support precision and individualized medicine. Objective: To cross-sectionally and longitudinally delineate disease-related heterogeneity in LLD associated with neuroanatomy, cognitive functioning, clinical symptoms, and genetic profiles. Design, setting, and participants: The Imaging-Based Coordinate System for Aging and Neurodegenerative Diseases (iSTAGING) study is an international multicenter consortium investigating brain aging in pooled and harmonized data from 13 studies with more than 35 000 participants, including a subset of individuals with major depressive disorder. Multimodal data from a multicenter sample (N = 996), including neuroimaging, neurocognitive assessments, and genetics, were analyzed in this study. A semisupervised clustering method (heterogeneity through discriminative analysis) was applied to regional gray matter (GM) brain volumes to derive dimensional representations. Data were collected from July 2017 to July 2020 and analyzed from July 2020 to December 2021. Main outcomes and measures: Two dimensions were identified to delineate LLD-associated heterogeneity in voxelwise GM maps, white matter (WM) fractional anisotropy, neurocognitive functioning, clinical phenotype, and genetics. Results: A total of 501 participants with LLD (mean [SD] age, 67.39 [5.56] years; 332 women) and 495 healthy control individuals (mean [SD] age, 66.53 [5.16] years; 333 women) were included. Patients in dimension 1 demonstrated relatively preserved brain anatomy without WM disruptions relative to healthy control individuals. In contrast, patients in dimension 2 showed widespread brain atrophy and WM integrity disruptions, along with cognitive impairment and higher depression severity. Moreover, 1 de novo independent genetic variant (rs13120336; chromosome: 4, 186387714; minor allele, G) was significantly associated with dimension 1 (odds ratio, 2.35; SE, 0.15; P = 3.14 ×108) but not with dimension 2. The 2 dimensions demonstrated significant single-nucleotide variant-based heritability of 18% to 27% within the general population (N = 12 518 in UK Biobank). In a subset of individuals having longitudinal measurements, those in dimension 2 experienced a more rapid longitudinal change in GM and brain age (Cohen f2 = 0.03; P = .02) and were more likely to progress to Alzheimer disease (Cohen f2 = 0.03; P = .03) compared with those in dimension 1 (N = 1431 participants and 7224 scans from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative [ADNI], Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging [BLSA], and Biomarkers for Older Controls at Risk for Dementia [BIOCARD] data sets). Conclusions and relevance: This study characterized heterogeneity in LLD into 2 dimensions with distinct neuroanatomical, cognitive, clinical, and genetic profiles. This dimensional approach provides a potential mechanism for investigating the heterogeneity of LLD and the relevance of the latent dimensions to possible disease mechanisms, clinical outcomes, and responses to interventions.Item Contribution of Alzheimer's biomarkers and risk factors to cognitive impairment and decline across the Alzheimer's disease continuum(Wiley, 2022) Tosun, Duygu; Demir, Zeynep; Veitch, Dallas P.; Weintraub, Daniel; Aisen, Paul; Jack, Clifford R., Jr.; Jagust, William J.; Petersen, Ronald C.; Saykin, Andrew J.; Shaw, Leslie M.; Trojanowski, John Q.; Weiner, Michael W.; Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineIntroduction: Amyloid beta (Aβ), tau, and neurodegeneration jointly with the Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk factors affect the severity of clinical symptoms and disease progression. Methods: Within 248 Aβ-positive elderly with and without cognitive impairment and dementia, partial least squares structural equation pathway modeling was used to assess the direct and indirect effects of imaging biomarkers (global Aβ-positron emission tomography [PET] uptake, regional tau-PET uptake, and regional magnetic resonance imaging-based atrophy) and risk-factors (age, sex, education, apolipoprotein E [APOE], and white-matter lesions) on cross-sectional cognitive impairment and longitudinal cognitive decline. Results: Sixteen percent of variance in cross-sectional cognitive impairment was accounted for by Aβ, 46% to 47% by tau, and 25% to 29% by atrophy, although 53% to 58% of total variance in cognitive impairment was explained by incorporating mediated and direct effects of AD risk factors. The Aβ-tau-atrophy pathway accounted for 50% to 56% of variance in longitudinal cognitive decline while Aβ, tau, and atrophy independently explained 16%, 46% to 47%, and 25% to 29% of the variance, respectively. Discussion: These findings emphasize that treatments that remove Aβ and completely stop downstream effects on tau and neurodegeneration would only be partially effective in slowing of cognitive decline or reversing cognitive impairment.Item Detection of β-amyloid positivity in Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative participants with demographics, cognition, MRI and plasma biomarkers(Oxford University Press, 2021-02-02) Tosun, Duygu; Veitch, Dallas; Aisen, Paul; Jack, Clifford R., Jr.; Jagust, William J.; Petersen, Ronald C.; Saykin, Andrew J.; Bollinger, James; Ovod, Vitaliy; Mawuenyega, Kwasi G.; Bateman, Randall J.; Shaw, Leslie M.; Trojanowski, John Q.; Blennow, Kaj; Zetterberg, Henrik; Weiner, Michael W.; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineIn vivo gold standard for the ante-mortem assessment of brain β-amyloid pathology is currently β-amyloid positron emission tomography or cerebrospinal fluid measures of β-amyloid42 or the β-amyloid42/β-amyloid40 ratio. The widespread acceptance of a biomarker classification scheme for the Alzheimer's disease continuum has ignited interest in more affordable and accessible approaches to detect Alzheimer's disease β-amyloid pathology, a process that often slows down the recruitment into, and adds to the cost of, clinical trials. Recently, there has been considerable excitement concerning the value of blood biomarkers. Leveraging multidisciplinary data from cognitively unimpaired participants and participants with mild cognitive impairment recruited by the multisite biomarker study of Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, here we assessed to what extent plasma β-amyloid42/β-amyloid40, neurofilament light and phosphorylated-tau at threonine-181 biomarkers detect the presence of β-amyloid pathology, and to what extent the addition of clinical information such as demographic data, APOE genotype, cognitive assessments and MRI can assist plasma biomarkers in detecting β-amyloid-positivity. Our results confirm plasma β-amyloid42/β-amyloid40 as a robust biomarker of brain β-amyloid-positivity (area under curve, 0.80-0.87). Plasma phosphorylated-tau at threonine-181 detected β-amyloid-positivity only in the cognitively impaired with a moderate area under curve of 0.67, whereas plasma neurofilament light did not detect β-amyloid-positivity in either group of participants. Clinical information as well as MRI-score independently detected positron emission tomography β-amyloid-positivity in both cognitively unimpaired and impaired (area under curve, 0.69-0.81). Clinical information, particularly APOE ε4 status, enhanced the performance of plasma biomarkers in the detection of positron emission tomography β-amyloid-positivity by 0.06-0.14 units of area under curve for cognitively unimpaired, and by 0.21-0.25 units for cognitively impaired; and further enhancement of these models with an MRI-score of β-amyloid-positivity yielded an additional improvement of 0.04-0.11 units of area under curve for cognitively unimpaired and 0.05-0.09 units for cognitively impaired. Taken together, these multi-disciplinary results suggest that when combined with clinical information, plasma phosphorylated-tau at threonine-181 and neurofilament light biomarkers, and an MRI-score could effectively identify β-amyloid+ cognitively unimpaired and impaired (area under curve, 0.80-0.90). Yet, when the MRI-score is considered in combination with clinical information, plasma phosphorylated-tau at threonine-181 and plasma neurofilament light have minimal added value for detecting β-amyloid-positivity. Our systematic comparison of β-amyloid-positivity detection models identified effective combinations of demographics, APOE, global cognition, MRI and plasma biomarkers. Promising minimally invasive and low-cost predictors such as plasma biomarkers of β-amyloid42/β-amyloid40 may be improved by age and APOE genotype.Item Effects of traumatic brain injury and posttraumatic stress disorder on development of Alzheimer's disease in Vietnam Veterans using the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative: Preliminary report(Elsevier, 2017-06) Weiner, Michael W.; Harvey, Danielle; Hayes, Jacqueline; Landau, Susan M.; Aisen, Paul S.; Petersen, Ronald C.; Tosun, Duygu; Veitch, Dallas P.; Jack, Clifford R., Jr.; Decarli, Charles; Saykin, Andrew J.; Grafman, Jordan; Neylan, Thomas C.; Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences, IU School of MedicineIntroduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have previously been reported to be associated with increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We are using biomarkers to study Vietnam Veterans with/without mild cognitive impairment with a history of at least one TBI and/or ongoing PTSD to determine whether these contribute to the development of AD. Methods Potential subjects identified by Veterans Administration records underwent an initial telephone screen. Consented subjects underwent clinical evaluation, lumbar puncture, structural magnetic resonance imaging, and amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Results We observed worse cognitive functioning in PTSD and TBI + PTSD groups, worse global cognitive functioning in the PTSD group, lower superior parietal volume in the TBI + PTSD group, and lower amyloid positivity in the PTSD group, but not the TBI group compared to controls without TBI/PTSD. Medial temporal lobe atrophy was not increased in the PTSD and/or TBI groups. Discussion Preliminary results do not indicate that TBI or PTSD increase the risk for AD measured by amyloid PET. Additional recruitment, longitudinal follow-up, and tau-PET scans will provide more information in the future.Item Genetic and clinical correlates of two neuroanatomical AI dimensions in the Alzheimer's disease continuum(Springer Nature, 2024-10-05) Wen, Junhao; Yang, Zhijian; Nasrallah, Ilya M.; Cui, Yuhan; Erus, Guray; Srinivasan, Dhivya; Abdulkadir, Ahmed; Mamourian, Elizabeth; Hwang, Gyujoon; Singh, Ashish; Bergman, Mark; Bao, Jingxuan; Varol, Erdem; Zhou, Zhen; Boquet-Pujadas, Aleix; Chen, Jiong; Toga, Arthur W.; Saykin, Andrew J.; Hohman, Timothy J.; Thompson, Paul M.; Villeneuve, Sylvia; Gollub, Randy; Sotiras, Aristeidis; Wittfeld, Katharina; Grabe, Hans J.; Tosun, Duygu; Bilgel, Murat; An, Yang; Marcus, Daniel S.; LaMontagne, Pamela; Benzinger, Tammie L.; Heckbert, Susan R.; Austin, Thomas R.; Launer, Lenore J.; Espeland, Mark; Masters, Colin L.; Maruff, Paul; Fripp, Jurgen; Johnson, Sterling C.; Morris, John C.; Albert, Marilyn S.; Bryan, R. Nick; Resnick, Susan M.; Ferrucci, Luigi; Fan, Yong; Habes, Mohamad; Wolk, David; Shen, Li; Shou, Haochang; Davatzikos, Christos; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineAlzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with heterogeneous atrophy patterns. We employed a semi-supervised representation learning technique known as Surreal-GAN, through which we identified two latent dimensional representations of brain atrophy in symptomatic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and AD patients: the "diffuse-AD" (R1) dimension shows widespread brain atrophy, and the "MTL-AD" (R2) dimension displays focal medial temporal lobe (MTL) atrophy. Critically, only R2 was associated with widely known sporadic AD genetic risk factors (e.g., APOE ε4) in MCI and AD patients at baseline. We then independently detected the presence of the two dimensions in the early stages by deploying the trained model in the general population and two cognitively unimpaired cohorts of asymptomatic participants. In the general population, genome-wide association studies found 77 genes unrelated to APOE differentially associated with R1 and R2. Functional analyses revealed that these genes were overrepresented in differentially expressed gene sets in organs beyond the brain (R1 and R2), including the heart (R1) and the pituitary gland, muscle, and kidney (R2). These genes were enriched in biological pathways implicated in dendritic cells (R2), macrophage functions (R1), and cancer (R1 and R2). Several of them were "druggable genes" for cancer (R1), inflammation (R1), cardiovascular diseases (R1), and diseases of the nervous system (R2). The longitudinal progression showed that APOE ε4, amyloid, and tau were associated with R2 at early asymptomatic stages, but this longitudinal association occurs only at late symptomatic stages in R1. Our findings deepen our understanding of the multifaceted pathogenesis of AD beyond the brain. In early asymptomatic stages, the two dimensions are associated with diverse pathological mechanisms, including cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, and hormonal dysfunction-driven by genes different from APOE-which may collectively contribute to the early pathogenesis of AD.

Nick; Resnick, Susan M.; Fan, Yong; Habes, Mohamad; Wolk, David; Shou, Haochang; Davatzikos, Christos; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineNormal and pathologic neurobiological processes influence brain morphology in coordinated ways that give rise to patterns of structural covariance (PSC) across brain regions and individuals during brain aging and diseases. The genetic underpinnings of these patterns remain largely unknown. We apply a stochastic multivariate factorization method to a diverse population of 50,699 individuals (12 studies and 130 sites) and derive data-driven, multi-scale PSCs of regional brain size. PSCs were significantly correlated with 915 genomic loci in the discovery set, 617 of which are newly identified, and 72% were independently replicated. Key pathways influencing PSCs involve reelin signaling, apoptosis, neurogenesis, and appendage development, while pathways of breast cancer indicate potential interplays between brain metastasis and PSCs associated with neurodegeneration and dementia. Using support vector machines, multi-scale PSCs effectively derive imaging signatures of several brain diseases. Our results elucidate genetic and biological underpinnings that influence structural covariance patterns in the human brain.Item Head-to-head comparison of leading blood tests for Alzheimer's disease pathology(Wiley, 2024) Schindler, Suzanne E.; Petersen, Kellen K.; Saef, Benjamin; Tosun, Duygu; Shaw, Leslie M.; Zetterberg, Henrik; Dage, Jeffrey L.; Ferber, Kyle; Triana-Baltzer, Gallen; Du-Cuny, Lei; Li, Yan; Coomaraswamy, Janaky; Baratta, Michael; Mordashova, Yulia; Saad, Ziad S.; Raunig, David L.; Ashton, Nicholas J.; Meyers, Emily A.; Rubel, Carrie E.; Rosenbaugh, Erin G.; Bannon, Anthony W.; Potter, William Z.; Neurology, School of MedicineIntroduction: Blood tests have the potential to improve the accuracy of Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical diagnosis, which will enable greater access to AD-specific treatments. This study compared leading commercial blood tests for amyloid pathology and other AD-related outcomes. Methods: Plasma samples from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative were assayed with AD blood tests from C2N Diagnostics, Fujirebio Diagnostics, ALZPath, Janssen, Roche Diagnostics, and Quanterix. Outcomes measures were amyloid positron emission tomography (PET), tau PET, cortical thickness, and dementia severity. Logistic regression models assessed the classification accuracies of individual or combined plasma biomarkers for binarized outcomes, and Spearman correlations evaluated continuous relationships between individual plasma biomarkers and continuous outcomes. Results: Measures of plasma p-tau217, either individually or in combination with other plasma biomarkers, had the strongest relationships with all AD outcomes. Discussion: This study identified the plasma biomarker analytes and assays that most accurately classified amyloid pathology and other AD-related outcomes. Highlights: Plasma p-tau217 measures most accurately classified amyloid and tau status. Plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 had relatively low accuracy in classification of amyloid status. Plasma p-tau217 measures had higher correlations with cortical thickness than NfL. Correlations of plasma biomarkers with dementia symptoms were relatively low.Item The Impact of Amyloid Burden and APOE on Rates of Cognitive Impairment in Late Life Depression(IOS Press, 2021) Rhodes, Emma; Insel, Philip S.; Butters, Meryl A.; Morin, Ruth; Bickford, David; Tosun, Duygu; Gessert, Devon; Rosen, Howie J.; Aisen, Paul; Raman, Rema; Landau, Susan; Saykin, Andrew; Toga, Arthur; Jack, Clifford R.; Weiner, Michael W.; Nelson, Craig; Mackin, R. Scott; Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative; ADNI Depression Project; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineBackground: Cognitive impairment (CI) is a key feature of late life depression (LLD), but the contribution of underlying neurodegenerative pathology remains unclear. Objective: To evaluate cognitive dysfunction in LLD relative to a sample of nondepressed (ND) older adults with matched levels of memory impairment and amyloid-β (Aβ) burden. Methods: Participants included 120 LLD and 240 ND older adults matched on age, education, sex, Mini-Mental State Exam, mild cognitive impairment diagnosis, and PET Aβ burden. Results: LLD showed higher rates of impairment relative to ND with 54.6% of the LLD sample demonstrating impairment in at least one cognitive domain compared to 42.9% of controls (H = 7.13, p = 0.008). LLD had poorer performance and higher rates of impairment on Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test learning and memory compared to controls. In the overall sample, Aβ positivity was associated with worse performance on Logical Memory I (p = 0.044), Logical Memory II (p = 0.011), and Trail Making Test -B (p = 0.032), and APOEɛ4 genotype was associated with worse performance on Logical Memory I (p = 0.022); these relationships did not differ between LLD and ND. Conclusion: LLD showed higher rates of CI driven by focal deficits in verbal learning and memory. Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers were associated with worse performance on timed set-shifting and story learning and memory, and these relationships were not impacted by depression status. These findings suggest that AD may account for a portion of previously reported multi-domain CI in LLD and highlight the potential for AD to confound studies of cognition in LLD.Item Increasing participant diversity in AD research: Plans for digital screening, blood testing, and a community-engaged approach in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative 4(Wiley, 2023) Weiner, Michael W.; Veitch, Dallas P.; Miller, Melanie J.; Aisen, Paul S.; Albala, Bruce; Beckett, Laurel A.; Green, Robert C.; Harvey, Danielle; Jack, Clifford R., Jr.; Jagust, William; Landau, Susan M.; Morris, John C.; Nosheny, Rachel; Okonkwo, Ozioma C.; Perrin, Richard J.; Petersen, Ronald C.; Rivera-Mindt, Monica; Saykin, Andrew J.; Shaw, Leslie M.; Toga, Arthur W.; Tosun, Duygu; Trojanowski, John Q.; Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative; Radiology and Imaging Sciences, School of MedicineIntroduction: The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) aims to validate biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. To improve generalizability, ADNI4 aims to enroll 50-60% of its new participants from underrepresented populations (URPs) using new biofluid and digital technologies. ADNI4 has received funding from the National Institute on Aging beginning September 2022. Methods: ADNI4 will recruit URPs using community-engaged approaches. An online portal will screen 20,000 participants, 4000 of whom (50-60% URPs) will be tested for plasma biomarkers and APOE. From this, 500 new participants will undergo in-clinic assessment joining 500 ADNI3 rollover participants. Remaining participants (∼3500) will undergo longitudinal plasma and digital cognitive testing. ADNI4 will add MRI sequences and new PET tracers. Project 1 will optimize biomarkers in AD clinical trials. Results and discussion: ADNI4 will improve generalizability of results, use remote digital and blood screening, and continue providing longitudinal clinical, biomarker, and autopsy data to investigators.
