We determined the prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathological hallmarks, amyloid-β and phosphorylated-Tau, in autopsied brains of 49 people with HIV (PWH) (ages: 50–68; mean age = 57.0) from the National NeuroAIDS Tissue Consortium and in a comparative cohort of 55 people without HIV (PWoH) from the UC San Diego Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (17 controls, 14 mild cognitive impairment, 24 AD; ages: 70–102, mean age = 88.7). The gene discussed is MAPT; the disease is early-onset autosomal dominant Alzheimer disease.
