Abstract

Background: We sought to determine if the APOE ε4 allele influences both the functional activation and connectivity of the medial temporal lobes (MTLs) during successful memory encoding in young adults. Methods: Twenty‐four healthy young adults, i.e., 12 carriers and 12 noncarriers of the APOE ε4 allele, were scanned in a subsequent‐memory paradigm, using event‐related functional magnetic resonance imaging. The neuroanatomic correlates of successful encoding were measured as greater neural activity for subsequently remembered versus forgotten task items, or in short, encoding success activity (ESA). Group differences in ESA within the MTLs, as well as whole‐brain functional connectivity with the MTLs, were assessed. Results: In the absence of demographic or performance differences, APOE ε4 allele carriers exhibited greater bilateral MTL activity relative to noncarriers while accomplishing the same encoding task. Moreover, whereas ε4 carriers demonstrated a greater functional connectivity of ESA‐related MTL activity with the posterior cingulate and other peri‐limbic regions, reductions in overall connectivity were found across the anterior and posterior cortices. Conclusions: These results suggest that the APOE ɛ4 allele may influence not only functional activations within the MTL, but functional connectivity of the MTLs to other regions implicated in memory encoding. Enhanced functional connectivity of the MTLs with the posterior cingulate in young adult ε4 carriers suggests that APOE may be expressed early in brain regions known to be involved in Alzheimer's disease, long before late‐onset dementia is a practical risk or consideration. These functional connectivity differences may also reflect pleiotropic effects of APOE during early development.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
