Large-scale cerebrospinal fluid proteomics identifies diagnostic biomarker candidates across the clinico-pathological continuum of frontotemporal lobar degeneration

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), predominantly comprised of tau and TDP-43 proteinopathies, is a common cause of early-onset dementia. Biomarkers that reliably classify FTLD subtypes are limited, thereby hindering in-vivo diagnosis and clinical trial stratification. We conducted large-scale, multi-platform cerebrospinal fluid proteomics in 566 individuals, including 274 FTLD-spectrum (48 autopsy-confirmed FTLD-TDP, 90 autopsy-confirmed FTLD-tau), 171 Alzheimers disease, and 95 controls. In neuropathological subtype contrasts, elevated matrix metalloproteinase MMP10 classified Picks disease (PiD) versus other subtypes with near-perfect accuracy across proteomic platforms. We further validated CSF MMP10 as a potential PiD diagnostic biomarker via a targeted immunoassay in an independent, autopsy-confirmed FTLD cohort. Post-synaptic proteins HOMER1 and DLG4 exhibited elevations across FTLD-TDP subtypes (A, B, and C) versus FTLD-tau. Network analysis identified RNA metabolism and pro-inflammatory signatures in FTLD-TDP, and cytoskeletal and heat shock signatures in progressive supranuclear palsy. These findings reveal candidate diagnostic biomarkers and proteomic pathways underlying FTLD clinico-pathological heterogeneity.

Single-cell transcriptomic atlas of frontoinsular cortex reveals molecular correlates of selective neuronal vulnerability in FTD

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is characterized by selective neuronal vulnerability, yet the features that predispose specific neuron types to degeneration remain unclear. We performed single-nucleus RNA sequencing of frontoinsular cortex, a region affected early in behavioral variant FTD, across individuals with C9orf72-associated and sporadic FTD-MND spectrum disease. By enriching for large projection neurons, we resolved molecular subtypes of layer 5 extratelencephalic neurons, including von Economo neurons, and identified selective depletion of specific layer 2/3 and layer 5 neuron subtypes, convergent across genotypes. Despite selective neuronal loss, disease-associated transcriptional changes were convergent across excitatory neuron populations, suggesting that they reflect upstream pathophysiology or shared responses to local neurodegeneration. By relating neighborhood-level depletion in disease to gene expression in controls, we found that baseline cellular respiration and ATP synthesis predict neuronal vulnerability in disease. These findings define molecular correlates of selective neuronal vulnerability in FTD and provide a framework linking cell type and state to neurodegeneration.

Characterisation of Posterior Predominant Amyloid PET Binding Across Multiple Cohorts

The standard approach to quantify amyloid (A{beta}) PET averages uptake within a single cortical mask that assumes no clinically relevant spatial heterogeneity in uptake patterns. Here, in a sample of 12,379 clinically impaired participants taken from four phenotypically diverse cohorts we use data-driven approaches to discover heterogeneous patterns of A{beta}-PET binding, uncovering a reproducible and clinically relevant pattern of posterior predominant A{beta}-PET binding. In particular, A{beta}-PET positive participants who have posterior predominant binding are less likely to be APOE-{varepsilon}4 carriers, more severely impaired, have thinner cortex in posterior regions, and greater posterior tau PET burden. Furthermore, in a subsample of participants with neuropathological assessment, participants with posterior predominant A{beta} binding have a higher likelihood of having cerebral amyloid angiopathy at autopsy. These findings suggest that A{beta}-PET accumulates along two orthogonal axes with biological and clinical relevance, indicating that the standard approach to assess A{beta}-PET is insufficient to capture meaningful signal from A{beta}-PET imaging. This work has implications for the diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimers disease and extends our understanding of the mechanisms governing variable A{beta}-PET distribution and its downstream effects.

Integrative Genomic and Functional Analyses Reveal NINL as a Modulator of Tau Aggregation

IntroductionProteostasis dysfunction is a hallmark of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and Alzheimers disease (AD), yet the genetic and molecular pathways that disrupt protein homeostasis remain poorly understood. MethodsWe integrated human genetics, transcriptomics, and functional studies to identify proteostasis network components involved in tauopathy. ResultsWe identified 18 proteostasis network genes harboring 75 rare, damaging variants enriched in FTD and/or AD. These genes, spanning multiple proteostasis pathways, were differentially expressed in MAPT mutant neurons and dysregulated in FTD and AD brains. NINL, which encodes Nlp, emerged as the only gene consistently upregulated across all datasets. NINL overexpression reduced tau seeding and enhanced lysosomal proteolytic activity, whereas two FTD-enriched NINL frameshift variants impaired Nlp expression and abolished these protective effects. DiscussionOur findings identify a set of proteostasis genes with genetic and transcriptional links to neurodegeneration and reveal NINL as a novel regulator of tau aggregation, potentially upregulated as an adaptive response to proteotoxic stress.

Random forest model improves annotation and discovery of variants of uncertain significance in Alzheimer's and other neurological disorders

Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) are a bottleneck for genetic discovery and complicate clinical decision-making in Alzheimers disease and related neurological disorders (ADRD). We developed MoVUS: Model for Variants of Unknown Significance, a random-forest approach that integrates functional predictors to classify missense VUS. MoVUS leverages a balanced random forest model trained on dbNSFP v5.1a with high-confidence ClinVar and HGMD labels, using harmonized functional prediction rankscores. MoVUS produced confident, explainable calls, with [~]98% accuracy (AUC [~]0.998), prioritizing potentially pathogenic candidates and down-ranked likely benign variants on independent validation sets of ClinVar-only and HGMD-only variants. In our discovery analyses on ADRD-implicated variants in dbNSFP and from independent collaborator cohorts, we achieved high-confidence classifications on a majority of the unknown variants (average of 55% of discovery variants). We also had access to medical records and family trees for some variants, further validating our findings. Across held-out and external datasets, MoVUS reports high accuracy alongside confidence scores and helps prioritize actionable candidates, and reduces bias by considering multiple scores for each variant. To facilitate use, we developed a web app for users to browse across 100+ ADRD genes. MoVUS provides transparent, reproducible triage for research follow-up by pairing consensus predictors with SHAP-based visualizations and explanations.

Expansion of interferon signaling-associated gene (ISAG)-hi T cells in early-onset Alzheimer's disease

INTRODUCTIONAltered immune signatures are emerging as a central theme in neurodegenerative disease, yet little is known about immune responses in early-onset Alzheimers disease (EOAD). METHODSWe examined single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and droplet digital (dd)PCR data from CD4 T cells from participants with EOAD and clinically normal controls. RESULTSWe analyzed ~182,000 PBMCs by scRNA-seq and discovered increased interferon signaling-associated gene (ISAG) expression and striking expansion of antiviral-like ISAGhi T cells in EOAD. We isolated CD4 T cells from additional EOAD cases and confirmed increased expression of ISAGhi marker genes. Publicly available cerebrospinal fluid leukocyte scRNA-seq data from late-onset mild cognitive impairment and AD also revealed increased expression of interferon-response genes. DISCUSSIONISAGhi T cells, apparently primed for antiviral activity, are expanded in EOAD. Additional research into these cells and the role of heightened peripheral IFN signaling in neurodegeneration is warranted.

C9orf72 gene networks in the human brain correlate with cortical thickness in C9-FTD and implicate vulnerable cell types

IntroductionA hexanucleotide repeat expansion (HRE) intronic to chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) is recognized as the most common genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and ALS-FTD. Identifying genes that show similar regional co-expression patterns to C9orf72 may help identify novel gene targets and biological mechanisms that mediate selective vulnerability to ALS and FTD pathogenesis. MethodsWe leveraged mRNA expression data in healthy brain from the Allen Human Brain Atlas to evaluate C9orf72 co-expression patterns. To do this, we correlated average C9orf72 expression values in 51 regions across different anatomical divisions (cortex, subcortex, cerebellum) with average gene expression values for 15,633 protein-coding genes, including 50 genes known to be associated with ALS, FTD, or ALS-FTD. We then evaluated whether the identified C9orf72 co-expressed genes correlated with patterns of cortical thickness in symptomatic C9orf72 pathogenic HRE carriers (n=19). Lastly, we explored whether genes with significant C9orf72 radiogenomic correlations (i.e., C9orf72 gene network) were enriched in specific cell populations in the brain and enriched for specific biological and molecular pathways. ResultsA total of 1,748 genes showed an anatomical distribution of gene expression in the brain similar to C9orf72 and significantly correlated with patterns of cortical thickness in C9orf72 HRE carriers. This C9orf72 gene network was differentially expressed in cell populations previously implicated in ALS and FTD, including layer 5b cells, cholinergic motor neurons in the spinal cord, and medium spiny neurons of the striatum, and was enriched for biological and molecular pathways associated with multiple neurotransmitter systems, protein ubiquitination, autophagy, and MAPK signaling, among others. ConclusionsConsidered together, we identified a network of C9orf72-associated genes that may influence selective regional and cell-type-specific vulnerabilities in ALS/FTD.

Single-cell RNA-seq reveals alterations in peripheral CX3CR1 and nonclassical monocytes in familial tauopathy

BackgroundEmerging evidence from mouse models is beginning to elucidate the brains immune response to tau pathology, but little is known about the nature of this response in humans. In addition, it remains unclear to what extent tau pathology and the local inflammatory response within the brain influence the broader immune system. MethodsTo address these questions, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from carriers of pathogenic variants in MAPT, the gene encoding tau. ResultsAnalysis of [~]181,000 individual PBMC transcriptomes from MAPT pathogenic variant carriers (n = 8) and healthy non-carrier controls (n = 8) demonstrated striking differential expression in monocytes and natural killer (NK) cells. We observed a marked reduction in the expression of CX3CR1 - the gene encoding the fractalkine receptor that is known to modulate tau pathology in mouse models - in monocytes and NK cells. We also observed a significant reduction in the abundance of nonclassical monocytes and dysregulated expression of nonclassical monocyte marker genes, including FCGR3A. Finally, we identified reductions in TMEM176A and TMEM176B, genes thought to be involved in the inflammatory response in human microglia. We confirmed differential expression of select biologically relevant genes dysregulated in our scRNA-seq data using droplet digital PCR as an orthogonal technique for quantitative validation. ConclusionsOur results suggest that human peripheral immune cell expression and abundance are modulated by tau-associated pathophysiologic changes. CX3CR1 and nonclassical monocytes in particular will be a focus of future work exploring the role of these peripheral signals in additional tau-associated neurodegenerative diseases.

Radiogenomics of C9orf72 expansion carriers reveals global transposable element de-repression and enables prediction of thalamic atrophy and clinical impairment

Hexanucleotide repeat expansion (HRE) within C9orf72 is the most common genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Thalamic atrophy occurs in both sporadic and familial FTD but is thought to distinctly affect HRE carriers. Separately, emerging evidence suggests widespread de-repression of transposable elements (TEs) in the brain in several neurodegenerative diseases, including C9orf72 HRE-mediated FTD (C9-FTD). Whether TE activation can be measured in peripheral blood and how the reduction in peripheral C9orf72 expression observed in HRE carriers relates to atrophy and clinical impairment remain unknown. We used the FreeSurfer pipeline and its extensions to assess the effects of C9orf72 HRE and clinical diagnosis (n = 78) on atrophy of thalamic nuclei. We also generated a novel, whole-blood RNA-seq dataset to determine the relationships between peripheral C9orf72 expression, TE activation, thalamic atrophy, and clinical severity (n = 114). We confirmed global thalamic atrophy and reduced C9orf72 expression in HRE carriers. Moreover, we identified disproportionate atrophy of the right mediodorsal lateral nucleus in HRE carriers and showed that C9orf72 expression associated with clinical severity, independent of thalamic atrophy. Strikingly, we found global peripheral activation of TEs, including the human endogenous LINE-1 element, L1HS. L1HS levels were associated with atrophy of multiple pulvinar nuclei, a thalamic region implicated in C9-FTD. Integration of peripheral transcriptomic and neuroimaging data from HRE carriers revealed atrophy of specific thalamic nuclei; demonstrated that C9orf72 levels relate to clinical severity; and identified marked de-repression of TEs, including L1HS, which predicted atrophy of FTD-relevant thalamic nuclei. Significance StatementPathogenic repeat expansion in C9orf72 is the most frequent genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (C9-FTD/ALS). The clinical, neuroimaging, and pathological features of C9-FTD/ALS are well-characterized, whereas the intersections of transcriptomic dysregulation and brain structure remain largely unexplored. Herein, we utilized a novel radiogenomic approach to examine the relationship between peripheral blood transcriptomics and thalamic atrophy, a neuroimaging feature disproportionately impacted in C9-FTD/ALS. We confirmed reduction of C9orf72 in blood and found broad dysregulation of transposable elements--genetic elements typically repressed in the human genome--in symptomatic C9orf72 expansion carriers, which associated with atrophy of thalamic nuclei relevant to FTD. C9orf72 expression was also associated with clinical severity, suggesting that peripheral C9orf72 levels capture disease-relevant information.

TSC1 loss-of-function increases risk for tauopathy by inducing tau acetylation and preventing autophagy-mediated tau clearance

Age-associated neurodegenerative disorders demonstrating tau-laden intracellular inclusions, including Alzheimers disease (AD), frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), are collectively known as tauopathies. The vast majority of human tauopathies accumulate non-mutant tau rather than mutant forms of the protein, yet cell and animal models for non-mutant tauopathies are lacking. We previously linked a monoallelic mutation in the TSC1 gene to tau accumulation and FTLD. Now, we have identified new variants in TSC1 that predisposed to other tauopathies such as AD and PSP. These new TSC1 risk variants significantly decreased the half-life of TSC1/hamartin in vitro. Cellular and murine models of TSC1 haploinsufficiency (TSC1+/-) accumulated tau protein that exhibited aberrant acetylation on six lysine residues. Tau acetylation hindered its lysosomal degradation via chaperone-mediated autophagy leading to neuronal tau accumulation. Enhanced tau acetylation in TSC1+/- models was achieved through both an increase in p300 acetyltransferase activity and a decrease in SIRT1 deacetylase levels. Pharmacological modulation of either enzyme restored tau levels. Together, these studies substantiate TSC1 as a novel tauopathy risk gene and advance TSC1 haploinsufficiency as a new genetic model for tauopathy. In addition, these results promote acetylated tau as a rational target for diagnostic and therapeutic modalities in multiple tauopathies.

Non-Coding and Loss-of-Function Coding Variants in TET2 are Associated with Multiple Neurodegenerative Diseases

We conducted genome sequencing to search for rare variation contributing to early onset Alzheimers disease (EOAD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Discovery analysis was conducted on 493 cases and 671 controls of European ancestry. Burden testing for rare variation associated with disease was conducted using filters based on variant rarity (less than 1 in 10,000 or private), computational prediction of deleteriousness (CADD 10 or 15 thresholds), and molecular function (protein loss-of-function only, coding alteration only, or coding plus non-coding variants in experimentally predicted regulatory regions).\n\nReplication analysis was conducted on 16,871 independent cases and 15,941 independent controls. Rare variants in TET2 were enriched in the discovery combined EOAD and FTD cohort (p=6.5x10-8, genome-wide corrected p=0.0037). Most of these variants were canonical loss-of-function or non-coding in predicted regulatory regions. This enrichment replicated across several cohorts of AD and FTD (replication only p=0.0071). The combined analysis odds ratio was 2.2 (95% CI 1.5-3.2) for AD and FTD. The odds ratio for qualifying non-coding variants considered independently from coding variants was 2.1 (95% CI 1.2-3.9). For loss-of-function variants, the combined odds ratio (for AD, FTD, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which shares clinicopathological overlap with FTD) was 3.2 (95% CI 2.0-5.3). TET2 catalyzes DNA demethylation. Given well-defined changes in DNA methylation that occur during aging, rare variation in TET2 may confer risk for neurodegeneration by altering the homeostasis of key aging-related processes. Additionally, our study emphasizes the relevance of non-coding variation in genetic studies of complex disease.

Genome sequencing for early-onset dementia: high diagnostic yield and frequent observation of multiple contributory alleles

We assessed the utility of genome sequencing for early-onset dementia. Participants were selected from a memory disorders clinic. Genome sequencing was performed along with C9orf72 repeat expansion testing. All returned sequencing results were Sanger validated clinically. Prior clinical diagnoses included Alzheimers disease, frontotemporal dementia, and unspecified dementia. The mean age-of-onset was 54 (41-76). 50% of patients had a strong family history, 37.5% had some, and 12.5% had no known family history. Nine of 32 patients (28%) had a variant defined as pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) by American College of Medical Genetics standards, including variants in APP, C9orf72, CSF1R, and MAPT. Nine patients (including three with P/LP variants) harbored established risk alleles with moderate penetrance (odds ratios of about 2-5) in ABCA7, AKAP9, GBA, PLD3, SORL1, and TREM2. All six patients harboring these moderate penetrance variants but not P/LP variants also had one or two APOE {varepsilon}4 alleles. One patient had two APOE {varepsilon}4 alleles with no other established contributors. In total, 16 patients (50%) harbored one or more genetic variants likely to explain symptoms. We identified variants of uncertain significance (VUSs) in ABI3, ADAM10, ARSA, GRID2IP, MME, NOTCH3, PLCD1, PSEN1, TM2D3, TNK1, TTC3, and VPS13C, also often along with other variants. In summary, genome sequencing for early-onset dementia demonstrated high utility, with particular advantages where targeted testing may fail such as atypical variant-disease associations or presence of multiple moderate impact alleles. One or more established contributory alleles is often present in early-onset dementia, supporting an oligogenic model.

Partitioning the genetic architecture of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

The genetic basis of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is not well understood. Using large genome-wide association studies and validated tools to quantify genetic overlap, we systematically identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with ALS conditional on genetic data from 65 different traits and diseases from >3 million people. We found strong genetic enrichment between ALS and a number of disparate traits including frontotemporal dementia, coronary artery disease, C-reactive protein, celiac disease and memory function. Beyond C9ORF72, we detected novel genetic signal within numerous loci including GIPC1, ELMO1 and COL16A and confirmed previously reported variants, such as ATXN2, KIF5A, UNC13A and MOBP. We found that ALS variants form a small-world co-expression network characterized by highly inter-connected hub genes. This network clustered into smaller sub-networks, each associated with a unique function. Altered gene expression of several sub-networks and hubs was over-represented in neuropathological samples from ALS patients and SOD1 G93A mice. Our collective findings indicate that the genetic architecture of ALS can be partitioned into distinct components where some genes are highly important for developing disease. These findings have implications for stratification and enrichment strategies for ALS clinical trials.

Polygenic hazard score: an enrichment marker for Alzheimer’s associated amyloid and tau deposition

BackgroundThere is an urgent need for the early identification of nondemented individuals at the highest risk of progressing to Alzheimers disease (AD) dementia for early therapeutic interventions. Our goal was to evaluate whether a recently validated polygenic hazard score (PHS) can be integrated with known in vivo CSF or PET biomarkers of amyloid or tau pathology to prospectively predict cognitive decline and clinical progression to AD dementia in nondemented older individuals.\n\nMethodsWe evaluated 347 cognitive normal (CN) and 599 mild cognitively impaired (MCI) individuals. We first investigated whether PHS can predict CSF or PET amyloid and tau deposition. We evaluated differences in positive and negative predictive values of biomarker status, as a function of PHS risk. Next, we used linear mixed-effects (LME) to examine if PHS and biomarker status in conjunction, best predict longitudinal cognitive and clinical progression. Lastly, we used survival analysis to investigate whether a combination of PHS and biomarker positivity predicts progression to AD dementia better than using PHS or biomarker positivity alone.\n\nFindingsIn CN and MCI individuals, we found that amyloid and total tau positivity systematically varies as a function of PHS. For individuals in greater than the 50th percentile PHS, the positive predictive value for amyloid approached 100%. Similarly, for individuals in less than the 25th percentile PHS, the negative predictive value for total tau approached 85%. Beyond APOE, high PHS individuals with amyloid and tau pathology showed the fastest rate of longitudinal cognitive decline and time to AD dementia progression. Among the CN subgroup, we similarly found that PHS was strongly associated with amyloid positivity and the combination of PHS and biomarker status significantly predicted longitudinal clinical progression.\n\nInterpretationAmong asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic older individuals, PHS considerably improves the predictive value of CSF or PET amyloid and tau biomarkers. Beyond APOE, PHS may be useful for risk stratification and cohort enrichment for MCI and preclinical AD therapeutic trials.

Immune-related genetic enrichment in frontotemporal dementia

BackgroundConverging evidence suggests that immune-mediated dysfunction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Although genetic studies have shown that immune-associated loci are associated with increased FTD risk, a systematic investigation of genetic overlap between immune-mediated diseases and the spectrum of FTD-related disorders has not been performed.\n\nMethods and findingsUsing large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) (total n = 192,886 cases and controls) and recently developed tools to quantify genetic overlap/pleiotropy, we systematically identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) jointly associated with FTD-related disorders namely FTD, corticobasal degeneration (CBD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) - and one or more immune-mediated diseases including Crohns disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), type 1 diabetes (T1D), celiac disease (CeD), and psoriasis (PSOR). We found up to 270-fold genetic enrichment between FTD and RA and comparable enrichment between FTD and UC, T1D, and CeD. In contrast, we found only modest genetic enrichment between any of the immune-mediated diseases and CBD, PSP or ALS. At a conjunction false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.05, we identified numerous FTD-immune pleiotropic SNPs within the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region on chromosome 6. By leveraging the immune diseases, we also found novel FTD susceptibility loci within LRRK2 (Leucine Rich Repeat Kinase 2), TBKBP1 (TANK-binding kinase 1 Binding Protein 1), and PGBD5 (PiggyBac Transposable Element Derived 5). Functionally, we found that expression of FTD-immune pleiotropic genes (particularly within the HLA region) is altered in postmortem brain tissue from patients with frontotemporal dementia and is enriched in microglia compared to other central nervous system (CNS) cell types.\n\nConclusionsWe show considerable immune-mediated genetic enrichment specifically in FTD, particularly within the HLA region. Our genetic results suggest that for a subset of patients, immune dysfunction may contribute to risk for FTD. These findings have potential implications for clinical trials targeting immune dysfunction in patients with FTD.

Polygenic hazard scores in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease

Identifying asymptomatic older individuals at elevated risk for developing Alzheimers disease (AD) is of clinical importance. Among 1,081 asymptomatic older adults, a recently validated polygenic hazard score (PHS) significantly predicted time to AD dementia and steeper longitudinal cognitive decline, even after controlling for APOE {varepsilon}4 carrier status. Older individuals in the highest PHS percentiles showed the highest AD incidence rates. PHS predicted longitudinal clinical decline among older individuals with moderate to high CERAD (amyloid) and Braak (tau) scores at autopsy, even among APOE {varepsilon}4 non-carriers. Beyond APOE, PHS may help identify asymptomatic individuals at highest risk for developing Alzheimers neurodegeneration.
