- W2914486077 abstract "Aging causes considerable morphological changes in the human brain, both in the gray and white matter, in the form of atrophy and neuronal/axonal changes. While there are many studies of aging and early Alzheimer's disease that have focused on GM anatomy, there are fewer studies of WM structure, which is well characterized by Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI). We performed a comprehensive analysis of age effects on WM structure in older adults, using the initial DTI scans from 46 individuals (age 60 – 93 years) enrolled in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. Maps of fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD) and the full tensor were analyzed. The analyses consisted of 1) voxel-based analysis of group differences between relatively younger and older subjects (Group 1(mean: 71.7 years) and Group 2 (mean: 82.7 years)), and 2) regression of FA and MD with age (see figure for representative results). Peri-ventricular regions and the genu of the corpus callossum showed pronounced decreases of FA with age, while regions in frontal and temporal lobes and the insula showed significant increases in MD with age. Statistical analysis on the full tensor (that handles age- or pathology-induced change as a non-linear non-uniform process that can be modeled as changes on a manifold) showed widespread group differences, supporting results from the individual scalar maps of anisotropy and diffusivity. Regression analysis on these scalar maps showed an overall increase of diffusivity in the brain with age and a decrease in anisotropy in several major white matter tracts except in regions around the cingulum bundle where it showed an increase. The rate of decrease in anisotropy was much higher than the rate of increase in diffusivity. Age differences in FA and MD could relate to intrinsic fiber alterations, atrophy, decrease in myelin or neural/fiber loss and may be accounted for by differences in myelination or cerebral pruning during maturation. Overall, although the etiology of age differences in FA, MD and the tensors is not completely known, the study provides a firm foundation for a comprehensive DTI-based longitudinal study to identify potential complementary markers of aging." @default.
