Intrinsic connectivity of the human brain provides scaffold for tau aggregation in clinical variants of Alzheimer’s disease

Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer's disease (AD) phenotypes might result from differences in selective vulnerability. Evidence from preclinical models suggests that tau pathology has cell-to-cell propagation properties. Therefore, here, we tested the cell-to-cell propagation framework in the amnestic, visuospatial, language, and behavioral/dysexecutive phenotypes of AD. We report that each AD phenotype is associated with a distinct...
