Abstract:Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is an integral component of the glymphatic system, today considered a crucial pathway for removing brain interstitial solutes like amyloid-β (Aβ). Evidence exists that genetic variation of AQP4 impacts Aβ clearance, clinical outcome in Alzheimer’s disease as well as sleep measures. We examined whether a risk score calculated from several AQP4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is related to Aβ neuropathology in older cognitively unimpaired individuals. We used a machine learning approach… Show more
