Distinct regional patterns of synaptic vulnerability across hippocampal and parahippocampal subregions in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Synaptic loss in Alzheimer's disease predominantly affects the entorhinal cortex and parahippocampal gyrus. Amyloid‐β and p‐tau pathology show global associations with synaptic density but are limited in specific subregions. Instead, axonal damage associates with synaptic loss locally and in interconnected subregions.
