    Abstract Objective: Synaptopathy including alterations of synaptic plasticity (long-term potentiation, LTP) may precede neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD). We studied LTP-like corticospinal plasticity induced by paired-associative stimulation (PAS
    Methods: 15 AD and 15 aMCI patients, and 23 demographically matched healthy controls (HC) were included. Resting motor threshold (RMT) and stimulus intensity needed to evoke motor evoked potentials (MEP) of 1 mV (SI1mV) were obtained as single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) measures of corticospinal excitability in a hand muscle at baseline, followed by PAS
    Results: SI1mV were lower in aMCI compared to HC, while there was no difference between AD and HC. RMT and SI1mV showed excellent test-retest reliability in all groups. PAS
    Conclusions: aMCI shows corticospinal hyperexcitability, consistent with glutamatergic excitotoxicity in early-stage AD. Possible abnormalities of LTP-like plasticity could not be reliably tested with the standard PAS
    Significance: Findings indicate corticospinal hyperexcitability in prodromal AD, and reliability of single-pulse TMS measures for identifying such abnormality. In contrast, the standard PAS
