英文摘要
Dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease affects approximately 5.6M adults over age 65, with costs expected to rise from $307B to $1.5T over the next 30 years. Behavioral interventions have shown promise for mitigating neurodegeneration and cognitive impairments. Sleep is a modifiable health behavior that is critical for cognition and deteriorates with advancing age and Alzheimer’s disease. Thus, it is a priority to examine whether improving sleep modifies Alzheimer’s disease pathophysiology and cognitive function. Our research suggests that deeper, more consolidated sleep is positively associated with memory and executive functions and networks that underlie these processes. Our preliminary studies confirm that time-in-bed restriction interventions increase sleep efficiency and non-rapid eye movement slow-wave activity (SWA) and suggest that increases in SWA are associated with improved cognitive function. SWA reflects synaptic downscaling predominantly among prefrontal connections. Downscaling of prefrontal connections with the hippocampus during sleep may help to preserve the long-range connections that support memory and cognitive function. In pre-clinical Alzheimer’s disease, hyperactivation of the hippocampus is thought to be excitotoxic and is shown to leave neurons vulnerable to further Aβ deposition. Synaptic downscaling through SWA may mitigate the progression of Alzheimer’s disease through these pathways. The proposed study will behaviorally increase sleep depth (SWA) through four weeks of time-in-bed restriction in older adults characterized on Aβ deposition and multiple factors associated with Alzheimer’s disease risk. We will examine whether behaviorally enhanced SWA reduces hippocampal hyperactivation, leading to improved task-related prefrontal-hippocampal connectivity, plasma Aβ levels, and cognitive function. This research addresses whether a simple, feasible, and scalable behavioral sleep intervention improves functional neuroimaging indices of excitotoxicity, Alzheimer’s pathophysiology, and cognitive performance.
