Abstract excerpt
The apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele is strongly linked with cerebral β-amyloidosis, but its relationship with tauopathy is less established. We investigated the relationship between APOE ε4 carrier status, regional amyloid-β (Aβ), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) volumetrics, tau positron emission tomography (PET), APOE messenger RNA (mRNA) expression maps, and cerebrospinal fluid phosphorylated tau (CSF...
