Alzheimer's disease is associated with disrupted sleep and the
accumulation of tau and proteins in the brain, which can emerge long before
characteristic memory impairments appear. Two types of hippocampal sleep waves,
slow oscillations and sleep spindles, are synced in young individuals, but have
been shown to become uncoordinated in old age.
Matthew Walker, Joseph Winer, and colleagues at the University of
California, Berkeley found a decrease in slow oscillations/sleep spindle
synchronization was associated with higher tau, while reduced
slow-wave-activity amplitude was associated with higher ?-amyloid levels.
The researchers also found that a decrease in sleep quantity throughout
aging, from the 50s through 70s, was associated with higher levels of amyloid
and tau later in life. This means that changes in brain activity during sleep
and sleep quantity during these time frames could serve as a warning sign for
Alzheimer's disease, allowing for early preventive care.
