Abnormally decreased functional connectivity of the right nucleus basalis of Meynert in Alzheimer's disease patients with depression symptoms.
Biological Psychology 2024 March 24
Dysfunction of the basal forebrain is the main pathological feature in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The aim of this study was to explore whether depressive symptoms cause changes in the functional network of the basal forebrain in AD patients. We collected MRI data from depressed AD patients (n=24), nondepressed AD patients (n=14) and healthy controls (n=20). Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data and functional connectivity analysis were used to study the characteristics of the basal forebrain functional network of the three groups of participants. The functional connectivity differences among the three groups were compared using ANCOVA and post hoc analyses. Compared to healthy controls, depressed AD patients showed reduced functional connectivity between the right nucleus basalis of Meynert and the left supramarginal gyrus and the supplementary motor area. These results increase our understanding of the neural mechanism of depressive symptoms in AD patients.
