ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) interacts with important genetic Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk factors. Specifically, variants within the SORL1 gene determine BDNF's ability to reduce amyloid ß (Aß) in vitro. We sought to test whether functional BDNF variation interacts with SORL1 genotypes to influence expression and downstream AD-related processes in humans.

METHODS:

We analyzed postmortem brain RNA sequencing and neuropathological data for 441 subjects from the Religious Orders Study/Memory and Aging Project and molecular and structural neuroimaging data for 1285 subjects from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative.

RESULTS:

We found one SORL1 RNA transcript strongly regulated by SORL1-BDNF interactions in elderly without pathological AD and showing stronger associations with diffuse than neuritic Aß plaques. The same SORL1-BDNF interactions also significantly influenced Aß load as measured with [18F]Florbetapir positron emission tomography.

DISCUSSION:

Our results bridge the gap between risk and resilience factors for AD, demonstrating interdependent roles of established SORL1 and BDNF functional genotypes.
