Introduction: The biological pathways involved in the preclinical stage of the Alzheimer's continuum are not well understood. Methods: We used NeuroToolKit and Elecsys (R) immunoassays to measure cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) amyloid-beta (A beta)42, A beta 40, phosphorylated tau (p-tau), total tau (t-tau), neurofilament light (NfL), neurogranin, sTREM2, YKL40, GFAP, IL6, S100, and alpha-synuclein in cognitively unimpaired participants of the ALFA+ study, many within the Alzheimer's continuum. Results: CSF t-tau, p-tau, and neurogranin increase throughout aging only in A beta-positive individuals, whereas NfL and glial biomarkers increase with aging regardless of A beta status. We modelled biomarker changes as a function of CSF A beta 42/40, p-tau and p-tau/A beta 42 as proxies of disease progression. The first change observed in the Alzheimer's continuum was a decrease in the CSF A4 beta 42/40 ratio. This is followed by a steep increase in CSF p-tau; t-tau; neurogranin; and, to a lesser extent, in NfL and glial biomarkers. Discussion: Multiple biological pathways are altered and could be targeted very early in the Alzheimer's continuum.
