Amyloid induced hyperexcitability in default mode network drives medial temporal hyperactivity and early tau accumulation.
Neuron December 1, 2023 Joseph Giorgio, Jenna N. Adams, A. Maass et al.
In early Alzheimer's disease (AD) β-amyloid (Aβ) deposits throughout association cortex and tau appears in the entorhinal cortex (EC). Why these initially appear in disparate locations is not understood. Using task-based fMRI and multimodal PET imaging, we assess the impact of local AD pathology on network-to-network interactions. We show that AD pathologies flip interactions between the...
