Longitudinal progression of grey matter atrophy in non-amnestic Alzheimer’s disease
In: Brain (2019)
Abstract: Recent models of Alzheimer’s disease progression propose that disease may be transmitted between brain areas either via local diffusion or long-distance transport via white matter fibre pathways. However, it is unclear whether such models are applicable in non-amnestic Alzheimer’s disease, which is associated with domain-specific cognitive deficits and relatively spared episodic memory. To date, the anatomical progression of disease in non-amnestic patients remains understudied. We used longitudinal imaging to differentiate earlier atrophy and later disease spread in three non-amnestic variants, including logopenic-variant primary progressive aphasia (n = 25), posterior cortical atrophy (n = 20), and frontal-variant Alzheimer’s disease (n = 12), as well as 17 amnestic Alzheimer’s disease patients. Patients were compared to 37 matched controls. All patients had autopsy (n = 7) or CSF (n = 67) evidence of Alzheimer’s disease pathology. We first assessed atrophy in suspected sites of disease origin, adjusting for age, sex, and severity of cognitive impairment; we then performed exploratory whole-brain analysis to investigate longitudinal disease spread both within and outside these regions. Additionally, we asked whether each phenotype exhibited more rapid change in its associated disease foci than other phenotypes. Finally, we investigated whether atrophy was related to structural brain connectivity. Each non-amnestic phenotype displayed unique patterns of initial atrophy and subsequent neocortical change that correlated with cognitive decline. Longitudinal atrophy included areas both proximal to and distant from sites of initial atrophy, suggesting heterogeneous mechanisms of disease spread. Moreover, regional rates of neocortical change differed by phenotype. Logopenic-variant patients exhibited greater initial atrophy and more rapid longitudinal change in left lateral temporal areas than other groups. Frontal-variant patients had pronounced atrophy in left insula and middle frontal gyrus, combined with more rapid atrophy of left insula than other non-amnestic patients. In the medial temporal lobes, non-amnestic patients had less atrophy at their initial scan than amnestic patients, but longitudinal rate of change did not differ between patient groups. Medial temporal sparing in non-amnestic Alzheimer’s disease may thus be due in part to later onset of medial temporal degeneration than in amnestic patients rather than different rates of atrophy over time. Finally, the magnitude of longitudinal atrophy was predicted by structural connectivity, measured in terms of node degree; this result provides indirect support for the role of long-distance fibre pathways in the spread of neurodegenerative disease.
