- Autosomal-dominant Alzheimer's disease (ADAD) may be associated with atypical amyloid beta deposits in the brain. In vivo amyloid imaging using(11)C-Pittsburgh compound B (PiB) tracer has shown differences in binding between brains from ADAD and sporadic Alzheimer's disease (sAD) patients. To gain further insight into the various pathological characteristics of these genetic variants, we performed large frozen hemisphere autoradiography and brain homogenate binding assays with(3)H-PiB,H-3-MK6240-H-3-THK5117, and(3)H-deprenyl for detection of amyloid fibrils, tau depositions, and activated astrocytes, respectively, in twoA beta PParcmutation carriers, onePSEN1 Delta E9mutation carrier, and three sAD cases. The results were compared with Abeta 40, Abeta 42, AT8, and GFAP immunostaining, respectively, as well as with Congo red and Bielschowsky. PiB showed a very low binding inA beta PParc. A high binding was observed inPSEN1 Delta E9and in sAD tissues but with different binding patterns. Comparable(3)H-THK5117 and(3)H-deprenyl brain homogenate binding was observed forA beta PParc,PSEN1 Delta E9, and sAD, respectively. Some differences were observed between(3)H-MK6240 and(3)H-THK5117 in ADAD. A positive correlation between(3)H-deprenyl and(3)H-THK5117 binding was observed inA beta PParc, while no such correlation was found inPSEN1 Delta E9and sAD. Our study demonstrates differences in the properties of the amyloid plaques between two genetic variants of AD and sAD. Despite the lack of measurable amyloid fibrils by PiB in theA beta PParccases, high regional tau and astrocyte binding was observed. The lack of correlation between(3)H-deprenyl and(3)H-THK5117 binding inPSEN1 Delta E9and sAD in contrast of the positive correlation observed in theA beta PParccases suggest differences in the pathological cascade between variants of AD that warrant further exploration in vivo.

- The accumulation of pathological misfolded tau is a feature common to a collective of neurodegenerative disorders known as tauopathies, of which Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common. Related tauopathies include progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), Down's syndrome (DS), Parkinson's disease (PD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Investigation of the role of tau pathology in the onset and progression of these disorders is now possible due the recent advent of tau-specific ligands for use with positron emission tomography (PET), including first-(e.g., [F-18] THK5317, [F-18] THK5351, [F-18] AV1451, and [C-11] PBB3) and second-generation compounds [namely [F-18] MK-6240, [F-18] RO-948 (previously referred to as [F-18] RO69558948), [F-18] PI-2620, [F-18] GTP1, [F-18] PM-PBB3, and [F-18] JNJ64349311 ([F-18] JNJ311) and its derivative [F-18] JNJ-067)]. In this review we describe and discuss findings from in vitro and in vivo studies using both initial and new tau ligands, including their relation to biomarkers for amyloid-beta and neurodegeneration, and cognitive findings. Lastly, methodological considerations for the quantification of in vivo ligand binding are addressed, along with potential future applications of tau PET, including therapeutic trials.

- Introduction: Amyloid imaging has been integrated into diagnostic criteria for Alzheimer's disease (AD). How amyloid tracers binding differ for different tracer structures and amyloid-beta aggregates in autosomal dominant AD (ADAD) and sporadic AD is unclear. Methods: Binding properties of different amyloid tracers were examined in brain homogenates from six ADAD with APPswe, PS1 M146V, and PS1 E Delta 9 mutations, 13 sporadic AD, and 14 control cases. Results: H-3-PIB, H-3-florbetaben, H-3-AZD2184, and BTA-1 shared a high-and a varying low-affinity binding site in the frontal cortex of sporadic AD. AZD2184 detected another binding site (affinity 33 nM) in the frontal cortex of ADAD. The H-3-AZD2184 and H-3-PIB binding were significantly higher in the striatum of ADAD compared to sporadic AD and control. Polyphenol resveratrol showed strongest inhibition on H-3-AZD84 binding followed by H-3-florbetaben and minimal on H-3-PIB. Discussion: This study implies amyloid tracers of different structures detect different sites on amyloid-beta fibrils or conformations.
