ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

We constructed a polygenic risk score (PRS) for ß-amyloid (PRSAß42) to proxy AD pathology and investigated its association with incident Alzheimer's disease (AD)/amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and the influence of cognitive reserve (CR), proxied by educational years, on the relationship between PRSAß42 and AD/aMCI risk.

METHODS:

A total of 618 cognitive-normal participants were followed-up for 2.92 years. The association of PRSAß42 and CR with AD/aMCI incidence was examined with COX models. Then we examined the additive interaction between PRSAß42 and CR and the CR effect across participants with different PRSAß42 levels.

RESULTS:

Higher PRSAß42 and CR were associated with a 33.9% higher risk and 8.3% less risk for AD/aMCI, respectively. An additive interaction between PRSAß42 and CR was observed. High CR was associated with 62.6% less risk of AD/aMCI incidence only in the high-PRSAß42 group.

DISCUSSION:

A super-additive effect of PRSAß42 and CR on AD/aMCI risk was observed. CR influence was evident in participants with high PRSAß42.
