abstract = {Brain aging is highly variable and represents a challenge
to delimit aging from disease processes. Moreover, genetic
factors may influence both aging and disease. Here we
focused on this issue and investigated effects of multiple
genetic loci previously identified to be associated with
late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) on brain structure of
older adults from a population sample. We calculated a
genetic risk score (GRS) using genome-wide significant
single-nucleotide polymorphisms from genome-wide association
studies of AD and tested its effect on cortical thickness
(CT). We observed a common pattern of cortical thinning
(right inferior frontal, left posterior temporal, medial
occipital cortex). To identify CT changes by specific
biological processes, we subdivided the GRS effect according
to AD-associated pathways and performed follow-up analyses.
The common pattern from the main analysis was further
differentiated by pathway-specific effects yielding a more
bilateral pattern. Further findings were located in the
superior parietal and mid/anterior cingulate regions
representing 2 unique pathway-specific patterns. All
patterns, except the superior parietal pattern, were
influenced by apolipoprotein E. Our step-wise approach
revealed atrophy patterns that partially resembled imaging
findings in early stages of AD. Our study provides evidence
that genetic burden for AD contributes to structural brain
variability in normal aging.},
