Study Summary

To examine the differences in the capacity to activate microglia in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) compared to age-comparable cognitively normal subjects and younger healthy controls.

Primary Outcome

Participants will undergo \[11C\]PBR PET scanning both before and then after LPS injection. Parametric images of volume of distribution (VT)were generated for each using multilinear analysis (MA1) and MARI was calculated in the parietal cortex using the equation \[(VT post LPS - VT pre LPS)/VT post LPS\] x 100%. Higher values of MARI are thought to represent higher levels of microglial activation. There are no clinically relevant thresholds for this measure.
