(författare) Hippocampal subregional thinning related to tau pathology in early stages of Alzheimer’s disease 2022 Ingår i: Alzheimer's and Dementia. - : Wiley. - 1552-5260 .- 1552-5279. ; 18:S1 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Background: Subregions in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) are affected early by Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology and subject to grey matter atrophy. Measuring the earliest AD-related atrophy in the hippocampus is challenging as region-of-interest (ROI) analyses of hippocampal subregional volumes collapse across voxels within anatomical subregions. PET imaging studies, however, report accumulation of tau pathology between anatomical subregions in the earliest disease stages (Berron et al., 2021) fitting reports from the neuropathological literature (Lace et al., 2019; Ravikumar et al., 2021). Thus, sensitive in vivo methods of point-wise structural measures are needed in order to detect the earliest hippocampal thinning in AD along the anterior-posterior as well as the medial-lateral hippocampal axis. Method: Here we analyzed data from 76 amyloid-beta negative (Ab-) cognitively normal (CN), 46 Ab+ CN individuals and 25 Ab+ patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from the BioFINDER-2 study, who underwent 7 Tesla T2-weighted structural magnetic resonance imaging, tau positron emission tomography imaging (using 18F-RO-948) and cognitive assessments. First, we segmented hippocampal subfields and extrahippocampal subregions. Second, we calculated point-wise hippocampal thickness estimates (Diers et al.) of hippocampal subfields subiculum, cornu ammonis (CA)1, CA2 and CA3 on the level of the hippocampal body. Thirdly, we extracted local tau-PET SUVR from Area 35 (A35), entorhinal cortex and amygdala. Finally, we assessed relationships between hippocampal local thickness and tau accumulation as well as cognitive performance. Result: Our analyses revealed earliest hippocampal thinning associated with tau accumulation in an area spanning the boundary of subiculum and CA1 at the level of the anterior hippocampal body. Ab+ MCI patients showed more posterior thinning in comparison to Ab- CU participants. Median thickness in an ROI comprising vertices with A35 tau-related thinning (A35-TauThinning-ROI) was significantly lower in MCI Ab+ and tended to be lower in CU Ab+ compared to CU Ab-. Higher median thickness in the hippocampal A35-TauThinning-ROI, but not whole CA1 nor subiculum thickness, was associated with better 10-Word-Delayed-Recall and higher PACC scores. Conclusion: Our results suggest that tau-related thinning of hippocampal subregions can be observed already in early disease stages. Tau-related point-wise thickness measures were more sensitive compared to volumetric measures of anatomical subregions.
