Cohort study of electroencephalography markers of amyloid-tau-neurodegeneration pathology.


ABSTRACT: Electroencephalography signatures of amyloid-?, tau and neurodegenerative pathologies would aid in screening for, tracking progression of, and critically, understanding the pathogenesis of dementia. We hypothesized that slowing of the alpha peak frequency, as a signature of hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide gated 'pacemaker' channel activity, would correlate with amyloid and tau pathology burden measured by amyloid (Pittsburgh Compound B) and tau (MK-6240) positron emission tomography or CSF biomarkers. We also hypothesized that EEG power would be associated with neurodegeneration (CSF neurofilament light and hippocampal volume). Wakeful high-density EEG data were collected from 53 subjects. Both amyloid-? and tau pathology were associated with slowing in the alpha peak frequency [Pittsburgh Compound B (+) vs. Pittsburgh Compound B (-) subjects, P?=?0.039 and MK-6240 (+) vs. MK-6240 (-) subjects, P?=?0.019]. Furthermore, slowing in the peak alpha frequency correlated with CSF A?42/40 ratio (r 2 = 0.270; P?=?0.003), phosphoTau (pTau181, r 2 = 0.290; P?=?0.001) and pTau181/A?42 (r 2 = 0.343; P?
