BACKGROUND: Subthreshold depression (StD) in adolescence is clinically important, but its neurobiological substrates remain unclear. We examined whether adolescents with StD show multimodal MRI alterations related to glymphatic function.
METHODS: We recruited 107 adolescents (71 StD, 36 healthy controls). Six glymphatic-related biomarkers were assessed: choroid plexus volume, BOLD-CSF coupling, CSF Hurst exponent, ALPS index, perivascular space volume, and basal forebrain cholinergic nucleus volume. Group differences were tested using age- and sex-adjusted ANCOVA. Biomarker-clinical associations were examined using partial correlations with biomarker-wise Bonferroni correction across five primary clinical scales. Mahalanobis distance (MD) quantified multivariate deviation from the healthy-control glymphatic profile.
RESULTS: Compared with controls, adolescents with StD showed reduced BOLD-CSF coupling (F = 4.14, p = 0.044) and lower left ALPS (F = 9.12, p = 0.003). Three associations survived Bonferroni correction: lower left ALPS was associated with greater insomnia severity (p_Bonf = 0.021) and self-rated depressive symptoms (p_Bonf = 0.016), and lower CSF Hurst exponent with higher PHQ-9 scores (p_Bonf = 0.029). MD was higher in StD (F = 6.17, p = 0.01) and showed the strongest clinical association with PHQ-9 severity (r = 0.403, p = 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents with StD exhibit a multivariate glymphatic-related MRI profile involving altered BOLD-CSF coupling, reduced left ALPS, and clinically relevant deviations across biomarkers. These findings provide preliminary evidence that glymphatic-related MRI alterations may represent a neurobiological feature of adolescent StD and support multimodal integration over reliance on any single indirect marker.
