abstract = {Lower network segregation is associated with accelerated
cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet it is
unclear whether less segregated brain networks facilitate
connectivity-mediated tau spreading.We combined resting
state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with
longitudinal tau positron emission tomography (PET) in 42
betamyloid-negative controls and 81 amyloid beta positive
individuals across the AD spectrum. Network segregation was
determined using resting-state fMRI-assessed connectivity
among 400 cortical regions belonging to seven networks.AD
subjects with higher network segregation exhibited slower
brain-wide tau accumulation relative to their baseline
entorhinal tau PET burden (typical onset site of tau
pathology). Second, by identifying patient-specific tau
epicenters with highest baseline tau PET we found that
stronger epicenter segregation was associated with a slower
rate of tau accumulation in the rest of the brain in
relation to baseline epicenter tau burden.Our results
indicate that tau spreading is facilitated by a more
diffusely organized connectome, suggesting that brain
network topology modulates tau spreading in AD.Higher brain
network segregation is associated with attenuated tau
pathology accumulation in Alzheimer's disease (AD). A
patient-tailored approach allows for the more precise
localization of tau epicenters. The functional segregation
of subject-specific tau epicenters predicts the rate of
future tau accumulation.},
