Differential Involvement of the Locus Coeruleus in Early- and Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease: A Potential Mechanism of Clinical Differences?

Corey J. Bolton et al.

Summary: The study found a significantly higher likelihood of locus coeruleus (LC) atrophy in sporadic early-onset Alzheimer's disease (sEOAD) compared to late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). Patients with greater LC atrophy in sEOAD performed worse on attentional functioning tests, indicating the potential role of LC in driving clinical and pathological heterogeneity in sEOAD.

Alzheimer's disease pathology: pathways between central norepinephrine activity, memory, and neuropsychiatric symptoms

Heidi I. L. Jacobs et al.

Summary: The locus coeruleus-norepinephrine system plays a pivotal role in understanding the links between AD pathology and cognitive deficits. Neuropsychiatric symptoms are strongly linked to norepinephrine metabolism and phosphorylated tau, while memory deficits are associated with norepinephrine via a combination of tau and inflammation-driven amyloidosis.

Deepen into sleep and wake patterns across Alzheimer's disease phenotypes

Neus Falgas et al.

Summary: The clinical heterogeneity of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not yet fully understood, particularly in relation to sleep-wake patterns. Sleep disturbances are common in AD and can impact both patients and caregivers, but are often overlooked in diagnosis and treatment. Understanding the differing sleep-wake features in AD clinical variants could provide insight into tailored treatment strategies and mechanisms underlying the disease at a subcortical level.

Psychosis in neurodegenerative disease: differential patterns of hallucination and delusion symptoms

Georges Naasan et al.

Summary: This study compared the rates and content of psychosis in patients with different neurodegenerative diseases. It found that patients with Lewy body disease/Alzheimer's disease pathology were more likely to have hallucinations, while patients with FTLD-TDP were more likely to have delusions. The data suggests that the nature and content of psychosis can provide valuable information about underlying neurodegenerative pathology.

Comorbid neuropathological diagnoses in early versus late-onset Alzheimer's disease

Salvatore Spina et al.

Summary: Co-pathologies are important in the expression of the clinical phenotype of Alzheimer's disease, with differences in neuropathological diagnoses between early-onset and late-onset patients. Late-onset Alzheimer's disease is more likely to have LATE, hippocampal sclerosis, argyrophilic grain disease, and vascular brain injury.Sex does not significantly impact the number of co-pathologies present.

The Relationship Between Anxiety and Alzheimer's Disease

Mario E. Mendez

Summary: Anxiety is a common neuropsychiatric symptom in Alzheimer's disease, with a prevalence of about 40%. It can be particularly present in patients with mild cognitive impairment, mild dementia, or early-onset forms of the disease, and may promote disease progression. Anxiety is associated with specific pathological changes and neurobiological mechanisms in Alzheimer's disease.
