Objective:
Area Deprivation Index (ADI) is a measurement of neighborhood disadvantage. Evidence suggests that living in a disadvantaged neighborhood has a negative impact on health outcomes independent of socioeconomic status, including increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, less is known about the biological mechanisms that drive these associations. We examined how ADI influences structural imaging variables and cognitive performance in community-dwelling older adults. We hypothesized that greater neighborhood disadvantage would predict atrophy and worse cognitive trajectory over time.
Participants and Methods:Participants included the legacy cohort from the Vanderbilt Memory and Aging Project (n=295, 73±7 years of age, 16±3 years of education, 42% female, 85% non-Hispanic White) who lived in the state of Tennessee. T1-weighted and T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery brain MRIs and a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment were acquired at baseline, 18-month, 3-year, 5-year and 7-year follow-up time (mean follow-up time=5.2 years). Annual change scores were calculated for all neuropsychological and structural MRI outcome variables. Baseline state ADI was calculated using the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health Neighborhood Atlas (Kind & Buckingham, 2018) and was based on deciles where 1 represents the least deprived area and 10 represents the most. Mixed effects regression models related baseline ADI to longitudinal brain structure (volume, thickness, white matter hyperintensities) and neuropsychological trajectory (one test per model). Analyses adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, Framingham Stroke Risk Profile score, (apolipoprotein) APOE-e4 status, cognitive status, and intracranial volume (for MRI outcomes). Models were repeated testing interactions with APOE-e4 status, sex, and cognitive status. A false discovery rate (FDR) correction for multiple comparisons was performed.
Results:On average, the sample was from relatively less disadvantaged neighborhoods in Tennessee (ADI state decile=2.4±1.8). Greater neighborhood disadvantage at study entry predicted more thinning of an AD-signature composite over time (ß=-0.002, p=0.005, pFDR=0.06); however, all other models testing MRI and neuropsychological outcomes were null (p-values>0.05, pFDR-values>0.51). Baseline ADI interacted with sex on longitudinal cortical thinning captured on the AD-signature composite (ß=0.004, p=0.006, pFDR=0.08) as well as several longitudinal cognitive outcomes including an executive function composite score (ß=0.033, p<0.001, pFDR=0.01), naming (ß=0.10, p=0.01, pFDR=0.12), visuospatial functioning (ß=0.083, p=0.02, pFDR=0.09), and an episodic memory composite score (ß=0.021, p=0.02, pFDR=0.07). In stratified models by sex, greater ADI predicted greater cortical thinning over time and worse longitudinal neuropsychological performance among men only. All stratified models in women were null except for executive function composite score, which did not survive correction for multiple comparisons (ß=-0.013, p=0.03, pFDR=0.61). Interactions by APOE-e4 and cognitive status were null (p-values>0.06, pFDR-values>0.61).
Conclusions:Among community-dwelling older adults, greater neighborhood disadvantage predicted greater cortical thinning over the mean 5-year follow-up in anatomical regions susceptible to AD-related neurodegeneration. Neighborhood disadvantage also interacted with sex on cortical thickness and several cognitive domains, with stronger effects found among men versus women. By contrast, there were no interactions between neighborhood disadvantage and genetic risk for AD or cognitive status. This study provides valuable evidence for sociobiological mechanisms that may underlie health disparities in aging adults whereby neighborhood deprivation is linked with neurodegeneration over time.

Objective:
Novel blood-based biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) could transform AD diagnosis in the community; however, their interpretation in individuals with medical comorbidities is not well understood. Specifically, kidney function has been shown to influence plasma levels of various brain proteins. This study sought to evaluate the effect of one common marker of kidney function (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)) on the association between various blood-based biomarkers of AD/neurodegeneration (glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), neurofilament light (NfL), amyloid-b42 (Ab42), total tau) and established CSF biomarkers of AD (Ab42/40 ratio, tau, phosphorylated-tau (p-tau)), neuroimaging markers of AD (AD-signature region cortical thickness), and episodic memory performance.
Participants and Methods:Vanderbilt Memory and Aging Project participants (n=329, 73±7 years, 40% mild cognitive impairment, 41% female) completed fasting venous blood draw, fasting lumbar puncture, 3T brain MRI, and neuropsychological assessment at study entry and at 18-month, 3-year, and 5-year follow-up visits. Plasma GFAP, Ab42, total tau, and NfL were quantified on the Quanterix single molecule array platform. CSF biomarkers for Ab were quantified using Meso Scale Discovery immunoassays and tau and p-tau were quantified using INNOTEST immunoassays. AD-signature region atrophy was calculated by summing bilateral cortical thickness measurements captured on T1-weighted brain MRI from regions shown to distinguish individuals with AD from normal cognition. Episodic memory functioning was measured using a previously developed composite score. Linear mixed-effects regression models related predictors to each outcome adjusting for age, sex, education, race/ethnicity, apolipoprotein E-e4 status, and cognitive status. Models were repeated with a blood-based biomarker x eGFR x time interaction term with follow-up models stratified by chronic kidney disease (CKD) staging (stage 1/no CKD: eGFR>90 mL/min/1.73m2, stage 2: eGFR=60-89 mL/min/1.73m2; stage 3: eGFR=44-59mL/min/1.73m2 (no participants with higher than stage 3)).
Results:Cross-sectionally, GFAP was associated with all outcomes (p-values<0.005) and NfL was associated with memory and AD-signature region cortical thickness (p-values<0.05). In predictor x eGFR interaction models, GFAP and NfL interacted with eGFR on AD-signature cortical thickness, (p-values<0.004) and Ab42 interacted with eGFR on tau, p-tau, and memory (p-values<0.03). Tau did not interact with eGFR. Stratified models across predictors showed that associations were stronger in individuals with better renal functioning and no significant associations were found in individuals with stage 3 CKD. Longitudinally, higher GFAP and NfL were associated with memory decline (p-values<0.001). In predictor x eGFR x time interaction models, GFAP and NfL interacted with eGFR on p-tau (p-values<0.04). Other models were nonsignificant. Stratified models showed that associations were significant only in individuals with no CKD/stage 1 CKD and were not significant in participants with stage 2 or 3 CKD.
Conclusions:In this community-based sample of older adults free of dementia, plasma biomarkers of AD/neurodegeneration were associated with AD-related clinical outcomes both cross-sectionally and longitudinally; however, these associations were modified by renal functioning with no associations in individuals with stage 3 CKD. These results highlight the value of blood-based biomarkers in individuals with healthy renal functioning and suggest caution in interpreting these biomarkers in individuals with mild to moderate CKD.

Choline plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism for fish, and its deficiency in aquafeed has been linked to compromised health and growth performance. A 56-d experiment was conducted to examine the effects of dietary choline on lipid composition, histology and plasma biochemistry of yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi; YTK; 156 g initial body weight). The dietary choline content ranged from 0·59 to 6·22 g/kg diet. 2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) (3 g/kg) was added to diets, except for a control diet, to limit de novo choline synthesis. The results showed that the liver lipid content of YTK was similar among diets containing AMP and dominated by NEFA. In contrast, fish fed the control diet had significantly elevated liver TAG. Generally, the SFA, MUFA and PUFA content of liver lipid in fish fed diets containing AMP was not influenced by choline content. The SFA and MUFA content of liver lipid in fish fed the control diet was similar to other diets except for a decrease in PUFA. The linear relationship between lipid digestibility and plasma cholesterol was significant, otherwise most parameters were unaffected. When AMP is present, higher dietary choline reduced the severity of some hepatic lesions. The present study demonstrated that choline deficiency affects some plasma and liver histology parameters in juvenile YTK which might be useful fish health indicators. Importantly, the present study elucidated potential reasons for lower growth in choline-deficient YTK and increased the knowledge on choline metabolism in the fish.

Summary
Imagine a society comprising individuals who realize their maximal potential in every facet of their lives. In this society, people work together to better their communities and the lives of others. Individually, the citizens are free of disease, physically fit, well-educated masters of their craft, and they engage in a life of recreation and interconnectedness with family, neighbors, and friends while living with purpose and passion. Is this utopia too good to be true? The voice of reason may say life is not perfect; there are too many ever-changing variables. We are familiar with the physical law of entropy stating that randomness, or disorder, increases with time. However, why not aim toward a society as described above? We can strive to be the best version of ourselves, both on the micro, individual level and on the macro, societal level.

This research communication describes a genome-wide association study for Italian buffalo mammary gland morphology. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (AX-85117983, AX-8509475 and AX-85117518) were identified to be significantly associated with buffalo anterior teat length, posterior teat length and distance between anterior and posterior teat, respectively. Two significant signals for buffalo mammary gland morphology were observed in two genomic regions on the chromosome 10, and chromosome 20. One of the regions located on the chromosome 10 has the most likely candidate genes ACTC1 and GJD2, both of which have putative roles in the regulation of mammary gland development. This study provides new insights into the genetic variants of buffalo mammary gland morphology and may be beneficial for understanding of the genetic regulation of mammary growth.

This Research Communication describes the polymorphisms in the coding region of DGAT1 gene in Riverine buffalo, Swamp buffalo and crossbred buffalo, and associations between polymorphisms and milk production performance in Riverine buffalo. Two polymorphisms of DGAT1were identified, located in exon 13 and exon 17, respectively. The distribution of the genotypes of the two SNP loci in different buffalo population varied, especially the polymorphism located in exon 13 which was not found in the Swamp buffalo. Moreover, SNP located in exon 17 was a nonsynonymous switch resulting in the animo acid sequence changed from an arginine (Arg) to a histidine (His) at position 484. Both SNPs were in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, and the polymorphism of g.8330T>C in the exon 13 was significantly associated with peak milk yield, total milk yield and protein percentage. The C variant was associated with an increase in milk yield and peak yield but less in protein percentage compared with the T variant. The polymorphisms of g.9046T>C in exon 17 were significantly associated with fat percentage, in that the buffaloes with TT genotype had a significantly higher fat percentage than those with CC genotype. These findings reveal the difference in the genetic evolution of the DGAT1 between Riverine buffalo and Swamp buffalo, and provide evidence that the DGAT1 gene has potential effects for Riverine buffalo milk production traits, which can be used as a candidate gene for marker-assisted selection in buffalo breeding.

A symptom of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a flat learning profile. Learning slope calculation methods vary, and the optimal method for capturing neuroanatomical changes associated with MCI and early AD pathology is unclear. This study cross-sectionally compared four different learning slope measures from the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (simple slope, regression-based slope, two-slope method, peak slope) to structural neuroimaging markers of early AD neurodegeneration (hippocampal volume, cortical thickness in parahippocampal gyrus, precuneus, and lateral prefrontal cortex) across the cognitive aging spectrum [normal control (NC); (n=198; age=76±5), MCI (n=370; age=75±7), and AD (n=171; age=76±7)] in ADNI. Within diagnostic group, general linear models related slope methods individually to neuroimaging variables, adjusting for age, sex, education, and APOE4 status. Among MCI, better learning performance on simple slope, regression-based slope, and late slope (Trial 2–5) from the two-slope method related to larger parahippocampal thickness (all p-values<.01) and hippocampal volume (p<.01). Better regression-based slope (p<.01) and late slope (p<.01) were related to larger ventrolateral prefrontal cortex in MCI. No significant associations emerged between any slope and neuroimaging variables for NC (p-values ≥.05) or AD (p-values ≥.02). Better learning performances related to larger medial temporal lobe (i.e., hippocampal volume, parahippocampal gyrus thickness) and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex in MCI only. Regression-based and late slope were most highly correlated with neuroimaging markers and explained more variance above and beyond other common memory indices, such as total learning. Simple slope may offer an acceptable alternative given its ease of calculation. (JINS, 2015, 21, 455–467)
