OBJECTIVE: Neurofibrillary tangles are present in a proportion of people with dementia with Lewy bodies and may be associated with worse cognition. Recent advances in biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease include second-generation tau positron emission tomography as well as the detection of phosphorylated tau at threonine 181 (p-tau181) in plasma. This study aimed to investigate tau in people with dementia with Lewy bodies using a second-generation tau positron emission tomography tracer as well as plasma p-tau181.
METHODS: Twenty-seven participants (mean age 74.7 ± 5.5) with clinically diagnosed probable dementia with Lewy bodies underwent comprehensive clinical assessment and positron emission tomography imaging (18F-MK6240 and 18F-NAV4694). Plasma p-tau181 levels were measured using Simoa technology.
RESULTS: Five dementia with Lewy bodies participants (18.5%) had an abnormal tau positron emission tomography (increased tau uptake in the temporal meta-region-of-interest). Higher plasma p-tau181 concentrations correlated with higher tau deposition in the temporal region (ρ = 0.46, 95% confidence interval = [0.10, 0.72]) and classified abnormal tau positron emission tomography in dementia with Lewy bodies with an area under the curve of 0.95 (95% confidence interval = [0.86, 0.99]). Plasma p-tau181 also correlated positively with cortical amyloid-beta binding (ρ = 0.68, 95% confidence interval = [0.40, 0.84]) and classified abnormal amyloid-beta positron emission tomography in dementia with Lewy bodies with an area under the curve of 0.91 (95% confidence interval = [0.79, 0.99]). There was no association found between tau deposition and any of the clinical variables.
CONCLUSIONS: Tau is a common co-pathology in dementia with Lewy bodies. Plasma p-tau181 correlated with abnormal tau and amyloid-beta positron emission tomography and may potentially be used as a marker to identify co-morbid Alzheimer's disease-related pathology in dementia with Lewy bodies. The clinical implications of tau in dementia with Lewy bodies need to be further evaluated in larger longitudinal studies.
