Abstract
Abstract
Biomarkers that can predict disease progression in individuals with genetic frontotemporal dementia are urgently needed. We aimed to identify whether baseline MRI-based grey and white matter abnormalities are associated with different clinical progression profiles in presymptomatic mutation carriers in the GENetic Frontotemporal dementia Initiative.
387 mutation carriers were included (160 GRN, 160 C9orf72, 67 MAPT), together with 240 non-carrier cognitively normal controls. Cortical and subcortical grey matter volumes were generated using automated parcellation methods on volumetric 3 T T1-weighted MRI scans, while white matter characteristics were estimated using diffusion tensor imaging. Mutation carriers were divided into two disease stages based on their global CDR®+NACC-FTLD score: presymptomatic (0 or 0.5) and fully symptomatic (1 or greater). W-scores in each grey matter volumes and white matter diffusion measures were computed to quantify the degree of abnormality compared to controls for each presymptomatic carrier, adjusting for their age, sex, total intracranial volume, and scanner type. Presymptomatic carriers were classified as “normal” or “abnormal” based on whether their grey matter volume and white matter diffusion measure w-scores were above or below the cut point corresponding to the 10th percentile of the controls. We then compared the change in disease severity between baseline and one year later in both the “normal” and “abnormal” groups within each genetic subtype, as measured by the CDR®+NACC-FTLD sum-of-boxes score and revised Cambridge Behavioural Inventory total score.
Overall, presymptomatic carriers with normal regional w-scores at baseline did not progress clinically as much as those with abnormal regional w-scores. Having abnormal grey or white matter measures at baseline was associated with a statistically significant increase in the CDR®+NACC-FTLD of up to 4 points in C9orf72 expansion carriers, and 5 points in the GRN group as well as a statistically significant increase in the revised Cambridge Behavioural Inventory of up to 11 points in MAPT, 10 points in GRN, and 8 points in C9orf72 mutation carriers.
Baseline regional brain abnormalities on MRI in presymptomatic mutation carriers are associated with different profiles of clinical progression over time. These results may be helpful to inform stratification of participants in future trials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A third of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is caused by an autosomal-dominant genetic mutation in one of three genes: microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT), chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) and progranulin (GRN). Prior studies of prodromal FTD have identified impaired executive function and social cognition early in the disease but few have studied naming in detail. METHODS We investigated performance on the Boston Naming Test (BNT) in the GENetic Frontotemporal dementia Initiative cohort of 499 mutation carriers and 248 mutation-negative controls divided across three genetic groups: C9orf72, MAPT and GRN. Mutation carriers were further divided into 3 groups according to their global CDR plus NACC FTLD score: 0 (asymptomatic), 0.5 (prodromal) and 1 + (fully symptomatic). Groups were compared using a bootstrapped linear regression model, adjusting for age, sex, language and education. Finally, we identified neural correlates of anomia within carriers of each genetic group using a voxel-based morphometry analysis. RESULTS All symptomatic groups performed worse on the BNT than controls with the MAPT symptomatic group scoring the worst. Furthermore, MAPT asymptomatic and prodromal groups performed significantly worse than controls. Correlates of anomia in MAPT mutation carriers included bilateral anterior temporal lobe regions and the anterior insula. Similar bilateral anterior temporal lobe involvement was seen in C9orf72 mutation carriers as well as more widespread left frontal atrophy. In GRN mutation carriers, neural correlates were limited to the left hemisphere, and involved frontal, temporal, insula and striatal regions. CONCLUSION This study suggests the development of early anomia in MAPT mutation carriers, likely to be associated with impaired semantic knowledge. Clinical trials focused on the prodromal period within individuals with MAPT mutations should use language tasks, such as the BNT for patient stratification and as outcome measures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Behavioural dysfunction is a key feature of genetic frontotemporal dementia (FTD) but validated clinical scales measuring behaviour are lacking at present. METHODS We assessed behaviour using the revised version of the Cambridge Behavioural Inventory (CBI-R) in 733 participants from the Genetic FTD Initiative study: 466 mutation carriers (195 C9orf72, 76 MAPT, 195 GRN) and 267 non-mutation carriers (controls). All mutation carriers were stratified according to their global CDR plus NACC FTLD score into three groups: asymptomatic (CDR = 0), prodromal (CDR = 0.5) and symptomatic (CDR = 1+). Mixed-effects models adjusted for age, education, sex and family clustering were used to compare between the groups. Neuroanatomical correlates of the individual domains were assessed within each genetic group. RESULTS CBI-R total scores were significantly higher in all CDR 1+ mutation carrier groups compared with controls [C9orf72 mean 70.5 (standard deviation 27.8), GRN 56.2 (33.5), MAPT 62.1 (36.9)] as well as their respective CDR 0.5 groups [C9orf72 13.5 (14.4), GRN 13.3 (13.5), MAPT 9.4 (10.4)] and CDR 0 groups [C9orf72 6.0 (7.9), GRN 3.6 (6.0), MAPT 8.5 (13.3)]. The C9orf72 and GRN 0.5 groups scored significantly higher than the controls. The greatest impairment was seen in the Motivation domain for the C9orf72 and GRN symptomatic groups, whilst in the symptomatic MAPTgroup, the highest-scoring domains were Stereotypic and Motor Behaviours and Memory and Orientation. Neural correlates of each CBI-R domain largely overlapped across the different mutation carrier groups. CONCLUSIONS The CBI-R detects early behavioural change in genetic FTD, suggesting that it could be a useful measure within future clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a promising blood biomarker in genetic frontotemporal dementia, with elevated concentrations in symptomatic carriers of mutations in GRN, C9orf72, and MAPT. A better understanding of NfL dynamics is essential for upcoming therapeutic trials. We aimed to study longitudinal NfL trajectories in people with presymptomatic and symptomatic genetic frontotemporal dementia. METHODS We recruited participants from 14 centres collaborating in the Genetic Frontotemporal Dementia Initiative (GENFI), which is a multicentre cohort study of families with genetic frontotemporal dementia done across Europe and Canada. Eligible participants (aged ≥18 years) either had frontotemporal dementia due to a pathogenic mutation in GRN, C9orf72, or MAPT (symptomatic mutation carriers) or were healthy at-risk first-degree relatives (either presymptomatic mutation carriers or non-carriers), and had at least two serum samples with a time interval of 6 months or more. Participants were excluded if they had neurological comorbidities that were likely to affect NfL, including cerebrovascular events. We measured NfL longitudinally in serum samples collected between June 8, 2012, and Dec 8, 2017, through follow-up visits annually or every 2 years, which also included MRI and neuropsychological assessments. Using mixed-effects models, we analysed NfL changes over time and correlated them with longitudinal imaging and clinical parameters, controlling for age, sex, and study site. The primary outcome was the course of NfL over time in the various stages of genetic frontotemporal dementia. FINDINGS We included 59 symptomatic carriers and 149 presymptomatic carriers of a mutation in GRN, C9orf72, or MAPT, and 127 non-carriers. Nine presymptomatic carriers became symptomatic during follow-up (so-called converters). Baseline NfL was elevated in symptomatic carriers (median 52 pg/mL [IQR 24-69]) compared with presymptomatic carriers (9 pg/mL [6-13]; p<0·0001) and non-carriers (8 pg/mL [6-11]; p<0·0001), and was higher in converters than in non-converting carriers (19 pg/mL [17-28] vs 8 pg/mL [6-11]; p=0·0007; adjusted for age). During follow-up, NfL increased in converters (b=0·097 [SE 0·018]; p<0·0001). In symptomatic mutation carriers overall, NfL did not change during follow-up (b=0·017 [SE 0·010]; p=0·101) and remained elevated. Rates of NfL change over time were associated with rate of decline in Mini Mental State Examination (b=-94·7 [SE 33·9]; p=0·003) and atrophy rate in several grey matter regions, but not with change in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration-Clinical Dementia Rating scale score (b=-3·46 [SE 46·3]; p=0·941). INTERPRETATION Our findings show the value of blood NfL as a disease progression biomarker in genetic frontotemporal dementia and suggest that longitudinal NfL measurements could identify mutation carriers approaching symptom onset and capture rates of brain atrophy. The characterisation of NfL over the course of disease provides valuable information for its use as a treatment effect marker. FUNDING ZonMw and the Bluefield project.

Abstract
Risk for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), the most prevalent dementia, is partially driven by genetics. To identify LOAD risk loci, we performed a large genome-wide association meta-analysis of clinically diagnosed LOAD (94,437 individuals). We confirm 20 previous LOAD risk loci and identify five new genome-wide loci (IQCK, ACE, ADAM10, ADAMTS1, and WWOX), two of which (ADAM10, ACE) were identified in a recent genome-wide association (GWAS)-by-familial-proxy of Alzheimer's or dementia. Fine-mapping of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region confirms the neurological and immune-mediated disease haplotype HLA-DR15 as a risk factor for LOAD. Pathway analysis implicates immunity, lipid metabolism, tau binding proteins, and amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism, showing that genetic variants affecting APP and Aβ processing are associated not only with early-onset autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease but also with LOAD. Analyses of risk genes and pathways show enrichment for rare variants (P = 1.32 × 10-7), indicating that additional rare variants remain to be identified. We also identify important genetic correlations between LOAD and traits such as family history of dementia and education.

Abstract
We identified rare coding variants associated with Alzheimer's disease in a three-stage case-control study of 85,133 subjects. In stage 1, we genotyped 34,174 samples using a whole-exome microarray. In stage 2, we tested associated variants (P < 1 × 10-4) in 35,962 independent samples using de novo genotyping and imputed genotypes. In stage 3, we used an additional 14,997 samples to test the most significant stage 2 associations (P < 5 × 10-8) using imputed genotypes. We observed three new genome-wide significant nonsynonymous variants associated with Alzheimer's disease: a protective variant in PLCG2 (rs72824905: p.Pro522Arg, P = 5.38 × 10-10, odds ratio (OR) = 0.68, minor allele frequency (MAF)cases = 0.0059, MAFcontrols = 0.0093), a risk variant in ABI3 (rs616338: p.Ser209Phe, P = 4.56 × 10-10, OR = 1.43, MAFcases = 0.011, MAFcontrols = 0.008), and a new genome-wide significant variant in TREM2 (rs143332484: p.Arg62His, P = 1.55 × 10-14, OR = 1.67, MAFcases = 0.0143, MAFcontrols = 0.0089), a known susceptibility gene for Alzheimer's disease. These protein-altering changes are in genes highly expressed in microglia and highlight an immune-related protein-protein interaction network enriched for previously identified risk genes in Alzheimer's disease. These genetic findings provide additional evidence that the microglia-mediated innate immune response contributes directly to the development of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Although it has generally been assumed that protein kinase A (PKA) is essential for brown adipose tissue function, this has not as yet been clearly demonstrated. H89, an inhibitor of PKA, was used here to inhibit PKA activity. In cell extracts, it was confirmed that norepinephrine stimulated PKA activity, which was abolished by H89 treatment. In isolated brown adipocytes, H89 inhibited adrenergically induced thermogenesis (with an IC(50) of approx. 40 microM), and in cultured cells, adrenergically stimulated expression of the uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1) gene was abolished by H89 (full inhibition with 50 microM). However, H89 has been reported to be an adrenergic antagonist on beta(1)/beta(2)-adrenoceptors (AR). Although adrenergic stimulation of thermogenesis and UCP1 gene expression are mediated via beta(3)-ARs, it was deemed necessary to investigate whether H89 also had antagonistic potency on beta(3)-ARs. It was found that EC(50) values for beta(3)-AR-selective stimulation of cAMP production (with BRL-37344) in brown adipose tissue membrane fractions and in intact cells were not affected by H89. Similarly, the EC(50) of adrenergically stimulated oxygen consumption was not affected by H89. As H89 also abolished forskolin-induced UCP1 gene expression, and potentiated selective beta(3)-AR-induced cAMP production, H89 must be active downstream of cAMP. Thus, no antagonism of H89 on beta(3)-ARs could be detected. We conclude that H89 can be used as a pharmacological tool for elucidation of the involvement of PKA in cellular signalling processes regulated via beta(3)-ARs, and that the results are concordant with adrenergic stimulation of thermogenesis and UCP1 gene expression in brown adipocytes being mediated via a PKA-dependent pathway.

Abstract
The CREM (cAMP-response-element modulator) gene product ICER (induced cAMP early repressor) has been proposed to function as a tumour (cell proliferation) suppressor. To investigate the generality of this concept, the expression pattern of ICER in brown adipocytes was followed; this was critical because brown adipocytes are one of few cell types in which cAMP is associated positively with cell proliferation but negatively with apoptosis. In response to the physiological stimulus of cold (which induces cell proliferation), ICER mRNA levels were increased in brown adipose tissue in vivo. In brown adipocytes in primary culture, ICER gene expression was induced by noradrenaline (norepinephrine) not only in the mature state (where noradrenaline potentiates differentiation), but also in the proliferative state of the cell cultures (where noradrenaline enhances cell proliferation). The induction was mediated via beta-receptors and the cAMP/protein kinase A pathway. The induced ICER appeared to repress its own expression and that of the beta2-adrenoceptor. It is thus evident that also in cell types in which cAMP induces proliferation, and even when these cells are in the proliferative state, ICER expression is induced by the same agents that stimulate proliferation. This can either mean that ICER is not a general tumour suppressor, or that brown adipocytes temporally or spatially avoid this role of ICER.

Abstract
In order to examine how norepinephrine stimulates proliferation and differentiation in brown fat cells, we have investigated the ability of brown fat cells to respond to norepinephrine stimulation with an increase in the expression of the proto-oncogene c-fos. Stimulation of brown fat precursor cells (isolated from young mice and grown for 4 days in culture) with norepinephrine led to a marked but transient (maximal approximately 30 min) induction of c-fos expression. The magnitude of this induction was similar in pre- and postconfluent cells. The norepinephrine effect could be blocked by both alpha 1- and beta-adrenergic antagonists. Forskolin had a small inductive ability, as had the selective alpha 1-agonist cirazoline, but with both together a high induction was obtained. The phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) could in itself induce c-fos expression, but pretreatment with TPA did not abolish the ability of norepinephrine to induce c-fos expression, indicating that TPA-sensitive protein kinase C was not a primary mediator in this pathway. Also the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 had in itself an inductive ability, but A23187 in combination with forskolin led to a large increase in c-fos expression, indicating synergistic interaction between a cAMP pathway and a [Ca2+]i pathway. This interaction was not proximal, i.e. alpha 1 stimulation or increase in [Ca2+]i by A23187 did not augment forskolin-induced cAMP levels, and beta stimulation or forskolin did not affect [Ca2+]i levels; and it did not require protein synthesis. It was concluded that norepinephrine, in agreement with its fundamental role in the control of brown fat cell growth and development, was able to induce c-fos expression, that this induction was not exclusively linked to promotion of either proliferation or differentiation, and that the induction was mediated via a distal synergism between beta/cAMP and alpha 1/[Ca2+]i pathways, thus conferring to the alpha 1-adrenoreceptors on the cell a potentially significant role in the control of cell growth and development.
