ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The timing of plasma biomarker changes is not well understood. The goal of this study was to evaluate the temporal co-evolution of plasma and positron emission tomography (PET) Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers.METHODS:
We included 1408 Mayo Clinic Study of Aging and Alzheimer's Disease Research Center participants. An accelerated failure time (AFT) model was fit with amyloid beta (Aß) PET, tau PET, plasma p-tau217, p-tau181, and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) as endpoints.RESULTS:
Individual timing of plasma p-tau progression was strongly associated with Aß PET and GFAP progression. In the population, GFAP became abnormal first, then Aß PET, plasma p-tau, and tau PET temporal meta-regions of interest when applying cut points based on young, cognitively unimpaired participants.DISCUSSION:
Plasma p-tau is a stronger indicator of a temporally linked response to elevated brain Aß than of tau pathology. While Aß deposition and a rise in GFAP are upstream events associated with tau phosphorylation, the temporal link between p-tau and Aß PET was the strongest. HIGHLIGHTS Plasma p-tau progression was more strongly associated with Aß than tau PET. Progression on plasma p-tau was associated with Aß PET and GFAP progression. P-tau181 and p-tau217 become abnormal after Aß PET and before tau PET. GFAP became abnormal first, before plasma p-tau and Aß PET.Palavras-chave
