Aging in Down Syndrome and the Development of Alzheimer's Disease Neuropathology
Open accessAbstract
Chromosome 21, triplicated in Down Syndrome, contains several genes that are thought to play a critical role in the development of AD neuropathology. The overexpression of the gene for the amyloid precursor protein (APP), on chromosome 21, leads to early onset beta-amyloid (Aβ) plaques in DS. In addition to Aβ accumulation, middle-aged people with DS develop neurofibrillary tangles, cerebrovascular pathology, white matter pathology, oxidative damage, neuroinflammation and neuron loss. There is also evidence of potential compensatory responses in DS that benefit the brain and delay the onset of dementia after there is sufficient neuropathology for a diagnosis of AD. This review describes some of the existing literature and also highlights gaps in our knowledge regarding AD neuropathology in DS. It will be critical in the future to develop networked brain banks with standardized collection procedures to fully characterize the regional and temporal pathological events associated with aging in DS. As more information is acquired regarding AD evolution in DS, there will be opportunities to develop interventions that are age-appropriate to delay AD in DS.

In the citing paper
“There is substantial evidence of neuropathology from early in life in DS,6,9,10,21 including defects in neuronal development, an increased ratio of inhibitory to excitatory neurons, alterations in neuronal dendritic spines dynamics, activation of microglia, astrocyte reactivity, and elevated production of inflammatory cytokines in the brain.22,23,24,25”

In the citing paper
“Individuals with Down syndrome (DS), caused by trisomy of chromosome 21 (chr21, T21), are strongly predisposed to Alzheimer’s disease (AD), due to triplication of the APP gene, with ∼100% penetrance of AD brain pathology by age 40 and variable onset of dementia thereafter.”

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.
