Brief Summary:
The researchers are trying to determine whether ovarian hormones are associated with aging processes and with the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease in women.
Detailed Description:
The proposed project will enroll a total of 614 women.
Mayo Clinic Rochester Participants: Each women will have 2-3 clinic visits consisting of cognitive testing, tests of physical function, questionnaires, and a blood draw. All women will also undergo clinical neuroimaging, which includes structural MRI, β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition on PET as a biomarker of Aβ pathology, and tau deposition on PET as a marker of neurofibrillary tangles using AV-1451. All participants will have previously participated and will return by invitation only.
Mayo Clinic Jacksonville Participant: Only African American Women will be enrolled at this site. Each women will have 1-3 clinic visits consisting of physical function testing and neuroimaging, which includes structural MRI, β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition on PET as a biomarker of Aβ pathology, and tau deposition on PET as a marker of neurofibrillary tangles using AV-1451.
