Abstract There have been no previous reports of hippocampal radiomics features associated with biological functions in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). This study aims to develop and validate a hippocampal radiomics model from structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data for identifying patients with AD, and to explore the mechanism underlying the developed radiomics model using peripheral blood gene expression. In this retrospective multi-study, a radiomics model was developed based on the radiomics discovery group (n = 420) and validated in other cohorts. The biological functions underlying the model were identified in the radiogenomic analysis group using paired MRI and peripheral blood transcriptome analyses (n = 266). Mediation analysis and external validation were applied to further validate the key module and hub genes. A 12 radiomics features-based prediction model was constructed and this model showed highly robust predictive power for identifying AD patients in the validation and other three cohorts. Using radiogenomics mapping, myeloid leukocyte and neutrophil activation were enriched, and six hub genes were identified from the key module, which showed the highest correlation with the radiomics model. The correlation between hub genes and cognitive ability was confirmed using the external validation set of the AddneuroMed dataset. Mediation analysis revealed that the hippocampal radiomics model mediated the association between blood gene expression and cognitive ability. The hippocampal radiomics model can accurately identify patients with AD, while the predictive radiomics model may be driven by neutrophil-related biological pathways. |
