Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
SPECIFIC AIMS:
Aim 1: Investigate correlations between CSF biomarkers of synaptic injury (Ng and SNAP-25) and functional connectivity (FC) within the default mode network (DMN) using resting-state fMRI (adjusting for age, gender, apolipoprotein-E4 [APOE4] genotype, task performance, and regional brain atrophy) in MCI/AD and controls.
Aim 2: Examine correlations between CSF biomarkers of synaptic injury and functional connectivity (FC) within the semantic memory network on task-activated fMRI using the Famous Name Discrimination Task (FNDT) (adjusting for age, gender, APOE4 genotype, task performance, and regional brain atrophy) in MCI/AD and controls.

MCI due to AD or mild AD dementia
The clinical diagnoses of amnestic MCI due to AD or mild AD dementia will be made according to standard clinical criteria as described by the National Institute of Aging -Alzheimer's Association Working Group and supported by CSF biomarker data for tau, p-tau181, and Aβ42.
This includes evaluation for other systemic or neurological disorders which could account for the cognitive impairment, and inclusion of results from ancillary structural imaging (CT or structural MRI), neuro-psychometric testing, and FDG-PET imaging (when available) into the diagnostic scheme.
All participants in this group will undergo clinical and cognitive evaluations, CSF analysis, and functional MRI during resting state and semantic memory tasks.

CSF analysis for tau, p-tau181, Abeta42, and CSF levels of markers of synaptic injury
Functional MRI during resting state and semantic memory task activation
|
Normal controls
Normal cognition will be defined as cognitive performance on detailed neuropsychometric testing that falls within 1 SD of age-, gender-, and education-matched norms in all cognitive domains, and no subjective report of cognitive decline from an individual's baseline (i.e.
CDR 0).
All participants in this group will undergo clinical and cognitive evaluations, CSF analysis, and functional MRI during resting state and semantic memory tasks.
