    Abstract After more than a century since Dr. Alois Alzheimer first described the pathological hallmarks accompanying the defining clinical features of the disease, we have yet to deliver any meaningful disease-modifying treatments to our patients. In this article, I present a rationale for the need to be "extraordinarily diverse" in seeking effective ways to treat or prevent this devastating disease. This approach is based on applying a systems-biology perspective at the population level, using a diverse array of "OMICS" methodologies to identify molecular mechanisms associated with well-established AD risk factors including systemic inflammation, obesity, and insulin resistance. We believe that applying this strategy to understand longitudinal changes in human physiology during aging is of paramount importance in identifying meaningful opportunities to intervene effectively in AD.

    Abstract After clinical trial failures in symptomatic Alzheimer's disease (AD), our field has moved to earlier intervention in cognitively normal individuals with biomarker evidence of AD. This offers potential for dementia prevention, but mainly low and variable rates of progression to AD dementia reduce the usefulness of trials' data in decision making by potential prescribers. With results from several Phase 3 secondary prevention studies anticipated within the next few years and the Food and Drug Administration's recent endorsement of amyloid beta as a surrogate outcome biomarker for AD clinical trials, it is time to question the clinical significance of changes in biomarkers, adequacy of current trial durations, and criteria for treatment success if cognitively unimpaired patients and their doctors are to meaningfully evaluate the potential value of new agents. We argue for a change of direction toward trial designs that can unambiguously inform clinical decision making about dementia risk and progression.

    Abstract Transcriptome-integrated human genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) have been used widely to assess alterations in metabolism in response to disease. Transcriptome integration leads to identification of metabolic reactions that are differentially inactivated in the tissue of interest. Among the methods available for mapping transcriptome data on GEMs, we focus here on an Integrative Metabolic Analysis Tool (iMAT), which we have recently applied to the analysis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We provide a detailed protocol for applying iMAT to create models of personalized metabolic networks, which can be further processed to identify reactions associated with abnormal metabolism.

    Abstract The clinical benefit associated with anti-amyloid immunotherapies, a new class of drugs for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, is predicated on their ability to modify disease course by lowering brain amyloid levels. At the time of writing, two amyloid-lowering antibodies, aducanumab and lecanemab, have obtained United States Food and Drug Administration accelerated approval, with further agents of this class in the Alzheimer's disease treatment pipeline. Based on limited published clinical trial data to date, regulators, payors and physicians will need to assess their efficacy, clinical effectiveness and safety, as well as cost and accessibility. We propose that attention to three important questions related to treatment efficacy, clinical effectiveness and safety should guide evidence-based consideration of this important class of drugs. These are: (1) Were trial statistical analyses appropriate and did they convincingly support claims of efficacy? (2) Do reported treatment effects outweigh safety concerns and are they generalizable to a representative clinical population of people with Alzheimer's disease? and (3) Do the data convincingly demonstrate disease course modification, suggesting that increasing clinical benefits beyond the duration of the trials are likely? We suggest specific approaches to interpreting trial results for these drugs and highlight important areas of uncertainty where additional data and a cautious interpretation of existing results is warranted. Safe, effective and accessible treatments for Alzheimer's disease are eagerly awaited by millions of patients and their caregivers worldwide. While amyloid-targeting immunotherapies may be promising disease-modifying Alzheimer's disease treatments, rigorous and unbiased assessment of clinical trial data is critical to regulatory decision-making and subsequently determining their provision and utility in routine clinical practice. Our recommendations provide a framework for evidence-based appraisal of these drugs by regulators, payors, physicians and patients.

    Abstract Advancements in omics methodologies have generated a wealth of high-dimensional Alzheimer's disease (AD) datasets, creating significant opportunities and challenges for data interpretation. In this study, we utilized multivariable regularized regression techniques to identify a reduced set of proteins that could discriminate between AD and cognitively normal (CN) brain samples. Utilizing eNetXplorer, an R package that tests the accuracy and significance of a family of elastic net generalized linear models, we identified 4 proteins (SMOC1, NOG, APCS, NTN1) that accurately discriminated between AD (n = 31) and CN (n = 22) middle frontal gyrus (MFG) tissue samples from Religious Orders Study participants with 83 percent accuracy. We then validated this signature in MFG samples from Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging participants using leave-one-out logistic regression cross-validation, finding that the signature again accurately discriminated AD (n = 31) and CN (n = 19) participants with a receiver operating characteristic curve area under the curve of 0.863. These proteins were strongly correlated with the burden of neurofibrillary tangle and amyloid pathology in both study cohorts. We additionally tested whether these proteins differed between AD and CN inferior temporal gyrus (ITG) samples and blood serum samples at the time of AD diagnosis in ROS and BLSA, finding that the proteins differed between AD and CN ITG samples but not in blood serum samples. The identified proteins may provide mechanistic insights into the pathophysiology of AD, and the methods utilized in this study may serve as the basis for further work with additional high-dimensional datasets in AD.

    Abstract Background and objectives: Previous studies have highlighted antidiabetic drugs as repurposing candidates for Alzheimer disease (AD), but the disease-modifying effects are still unclear.
    Methods: A 2-sample mendelian randomization study design was applied to examine the association between genetic variation in the targets of 4 antidiabetic drug classes and AD risk. Genetic summary statistics for blood glucose were analyzed using UK Biobank data of 326,885 participants, whereas summary statistics for AD were retrieved from previous genome-wide association studies comprising 24,087 clinically diagnosed AD cases and 55,058 controls. Positive control analysis on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), insulin secretion, insulin resistance, and obesity-related traits was conducted to validate the selection of instrumental variables.
    Results: In the positive control analysis, genetic variation in sulfonylurea targets was associated with higher insulin secretion, a lower risk of T2DM, and an increment in body mass index, waist circumference, and hip circumference, consistent with drug mechanistic actions and previous trial evidence. In the primary analysis, genetic variation in sulfonylurea targets was associated with a lower risk of AD (odds ratio [OR] = 0.38 per 1 mmol/L decrement in blood glucose, 95% CI 0.19-0.72,
    Discussion: Genetic variation in sulfonylurea targets was associated with a lower risk of AD, and future studies are warranted to clarify the underlying mechanistic pathways between sulfonylureas and AD.
