Extended Data Fig. 2. Regional comparison of tau PET burden in RELN-COLBOS carrier versus other PSEN1 E280A carriers.

Extended Data Fig. 2

This analysis confirmed that compared to other PSEN1 E280A carriers who developed MCI at younger ages, the RELN-COLBOS carrier had relatively spared tau pathology in the medial temporal lobe (entorhinal cortex / parahippocampal gyrus), but not in other areas including temporal neocortex (inferior temporal). a-c, Regional tau PET signal (Flortaucipir, FTP) standardized uptake value ratio (SUVr) in three regions of interest: entorhinal (EC, a), inferior temporal (IT, b), and precuneus (PC, C). d-f, Ratios of tau PET uptake in medial temporal (EC) and neocortical (IT, PC) regions. d, EC:IT ratio, e, EC:PC ratio, f, ratio of EC to average of IT and PC (neocortical average). The tau pattern of the RELN-COLBOS patient was notable for the relative involvement of medial temporal versus temporal neocortex, particularly given the older age of the RELN-COLBOS patient compared to other carriers.
