Poor dream recall associates with Alzheimer's disease biomarkers and dementia risk

Alzheimer s & Dementia Diagnosis Assessment & Disease Monitoring March 30, 2026 Darren M. Lipnicki, Meritxell Valenti, Elizabeth Lucia Valeriano‐Lorenzo et al. 1 citation

Abstract INTRODUCTION Dreaming is subserved by the default mode network (DMN) and can be abolished by focal lesions within key regions. DMN dysfunction is promoted by pre‐clinical Alzheimer's pathology and apolipoprotein E ( APOE ) ε4 carriage, but any effects of these on dreaming are unknown. METHODS Associations between dream recall and APOE ε4 carriage and blood phosphorylated tau (p‐tau)...

Dream recall in cognitively healthy older adults: associations with blood p ‐tau217 levels, APOE ε4 carriage, and cognitive decline

Alzheimer s & Dementia December 1, 2025 Darren M. Lipnicki, Meritxell Valenti, Elizabeth Lucia Valeriano‐Lorenzo et al.

Abstract Background Evidence suggests that dreaming is subserved by the default mode network (DMN) (Domhoff, 2022. The Neurocognitive Theory of Dreaming ). β‐amyloid plaques and phosphorylated tau ( p ‐tau) protein tangles accumulate and contribute to abnormal functionality in the DMN long before clinical Alzheimer's disease, and similarly early abnormal DMN functionality is shown by...
