AbstractBackgroundComparisons of late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) and autosomal dominant AD (ADAD) are confounded by age.MethodsWe compared biomarkers from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), magnetic resonance imaging, and amyloid imaging with Pittsburgh Compound‐B (PiB) across four groups of 387 cognitively normal participants, 42 to 65 years of age, in the Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network (DIAN) and the Adult Children Study (ACS) of LOAD: DIAN mutation carriers (MCs) and non‐carriers (NON‐MCs), and ACS participants with a positive (FH+) and negative (FH–) family history of LOAD.ResultsAt baseline, MCs had the lowest age‐adjusted level of CSF Aβ42 and the highest levels of total and phosphorylated tau‐181, and PiB uptake. Longitudinally, MC had similar increase in PiB uptake to FH+, but drastically faster decline in hippocampal volume than others, and was the only group showing cognitive decline.DiscussionPreclinical ADAD and LOAD share many biomarker signatures, but cross‐sectional and longitudinal differences may exist.
