Abstract excerpt
The apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE ε4) allele is the strongest genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet the earliest structural brain alterations associated with ε4 risk remain insufficiently characterized. Here, we utilized a discovery-validation framework to investigate whether cognitively normal APOE ε4 carriers exhibit selective hippocampal subfield alterations and evaluated their...
