ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Neurofibrillary tangle pathology detected with tau-PET correlates closely with neuronal injury and cognitive symptoms in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Complexity of rs-fMRI has been demonstrated to decrease with cognitive decline in AD.OBJECTIVE:
We hypothesize that the rs-fMRI complexity provides an index for tau-related neuronal injury and cognitive decline in the AD process.METHODS:
Data was obtained from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI3) and the Estudio de la Enfermedad de Alzheimer en Jalisciences (EEAJ) study. Associations between tau-PET and rs-fMRI complexity were calculated. Potential pathways relating complexity to cognitive function mediated through tau-PET were assessed by path analysis.RESULTS:
We found significant negative correlations between rs-fMRI complexity and tau-PET in medial temporal lobe of both cohorts, and associations of rs-fMRI complexity with cognitive scores were mediated through tau-PET.CONCLUSION:
The association of rs-fMRI complexity with tau-PET and cognition, suggests that a reduction in complexity is indicative of tau-related neuropathology and cognitive decline in AD processes.Palavras-chave
