Preclinical models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) suggest that volumetric reductions in medial temporal lobe (MTL) structures manifest before clinical onset. AD polygenic risk scores (PRSs) are further linked to reduced MTL volumes (the hippocampus/amygdala); however, the relationship between the PRS and specific subregions remains unclear. We determine the relationship between the AD-PRSs and MTL subregions in a large sample of young participants (N = 730, aged 22-35 years) using a multimodal (T1w/T2w) approach.
