Abstract
Gliomas are the most common primary malignant tumors of the brain, accounting for about 80% of all central nervous system malignancies. With the development of molecular biology, the molecular phenotypes of gliomas have been shown to be closely related to the process of diagnosis and treatment. The molecular phenotype of glioma also plays an important role in guiding treatment plans and evaluating treatment effects and prognosis. However, due to the heterogeneity of the tumors and the trauma associated with the surgical removal of tumor tissue, the application of molecular phenotyping in glioma is limited. With the development of imaging technology, functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can provide structural and function information about tumors in a noninvasive and radiation-free manner. MRI is very important for the diagnosis of intracranial lesions. In recent years, with the development of the technology for tumor molecular diagnosis and imaging, the use of molecular phenotype information and imaging procedures to evaluate the treatment outcome of tumors has become a hot topic. By reviewing the related literature on glioma treatment and molecular typing that has been published in the past 20 years, and referring to the latest 2020 NCCN treatment guidelines, summarizing the imaging characteristic and sensitivity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy of different molecular phenotypes of glioma. In this article, we briefly review the imaging characteristics of different molecular phenotypes in gliomas and their relationship with radiosensitivity and chemosensitivity of gliomas.

Habibi MA, Rashidi F, Gharedaghi H, Arshadi MR, Kazemivand S. The safety and efficacy of bevacizumab in treatment of recurrent low-grade glioma: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Clin Pharmacol 2024:10.1007/s00228-024-03695-5. [PMID: 38733390 DOI: 10.1007/s00228-024-03695-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Central nervous system (CNS) tumors are among the most common malignancies in various age ranges. Low-grade glioma (LGG) can account for nearly 30% of pediatric CNS malignancies. Progression or recurrence after the first-line treatments is common among these patients. Therefore, more treatments are required. Bevacizumab as an anti-VEGF antibody has come into the spotlight recently and is especially used in relapse or recurrence settings. This review aims to study the safety and efficacy of bevacizumab for patients with recurrent LGG. METHODS This study was conducted according to The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase were comprehensively searched using the relevant key terms until 24th August 2023 to retrieve the studies that investigated clinical outcomes of bevacizumab in patients with recurrent LGG. All statistical analysis was performed by STATA v.17. RESULTS A total of 1306 papers were gathered, out of which 13 were incorporated in the meta-analysis. The pooled incidence rate of treatment according to the RANO scale was 70% (95% CI = 43-98%) for objective response rate, 26% (95% CI = 58-96%) for partial response, 21% (95% CI = 15-28%) for minor response, 14% (95% CI = 3-24%) for complete response, 48% (95% CI = 37-59%) for stable disease, and 8% (95% CI = 4-11%) for progressive disease. Furthermore, according to progressive survival after treatment, it was 4% (95% CI = -1 to 9%) for 6-month PFS, 41% (95% CI = 32-50%) for 2-year PFS, and 29% (95% CI = 22-35%) for 3-year PFS. CONCLUSION According to the RANO scale and PFS, clinicians should be aware that Bevacizumab could be a favorable alternative therapy for recurrent LGG. Furthermore, bevacizumab exhibits minimal toxicity and high tolerability in recurrent LGG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common devastating primary brain cancer in adults. In our clinical practice, median overall survival (mOS) of GBM patients seems increasing over time. METHODS To address this observation, we have retrospectively analyzed the prognosis of 722 newly diagnosed GBM patients, aged below 70, in good clinical conditions (i.e. Karnofsky Performance Status -KPS- above 70%) and treated in our department according to the standard of care (SOC) between 2005 and 2018. Patients were divided into two groups according to the year of diagnosis (group 1: from 2005 to 2012; group 2: from 2013 to 2018). RESULTS Characteristics of patients and tumors of both groups were very similar regarding confounding factors (age, KPS, MGMT promoter methylation status and treatments). Follow-up time was fixed at 24 months to ensure comparable survival times between both groups. Group 1 patients had a mOS of 19 months ([17.3-21.3]) while mOS of group 2 patients was not reached. The recent period of diagnosis was significantly associated with a longer mOS in univariate analysis (HR=0.64, 95% CI [0.51 - 0.81]), p < 0.001). Multivariate Cox analysis showed that the period of diagnosis remained significantly prognostic after adjustment on confounding factors (adjusted Hazard Ratio (aHR) 0.49, 95% CI [0.36-0.67], p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This increase of mOS over time in newly diagnosed GBM patients could be explained by better management of potentially associated non-neurological diseases, optimization of validated SOC, better management of treatments side effects, supportive care and participation in clinical trials.

Abstract
Gliomas with Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation represent a discrete category of primary brain tumors with distinct and unique characteristics, behaviors, and clinical disease outcomes. IDH mutations lead to aberrant high-level production of the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG), which act as a competitive inhibitor of enzymes regulating epigenetics, signaling pathways, metabolism, and various other processes. This review summarizes the significance of IDH mutations, resulting upregulation of D-2HG and the associated molecular pathways in gliomagenesis. With the recent finding of clinically effective IDH inhibitors in these gliomas, this article offers a comprehensive overview of the new era of innovative therapeutic approaches based on mechanistic rationales, encompassing both completed and ongoing clinical trials targeting gliomas with IDH mutations.

Predicting Isocitrate Dehydrogenase Status in Non-Contrast-Enhanced Adult-Type Astrocytic Tumors Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging and 11C-Methionine, 11C-Choline, and 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose PET. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:1543. [PMID: 38672625 PMCID: PMC11048577 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16081543] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
We aimed to differentiate the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) status among non-enhanced astrocytic tumors using preoperative MRI and PET. We analyzed 82 patients with non-contrast-enhanced, diffuse, supratentorial astrocytic tumors (IDH mutant [IDH-mut], 55 patients; IDH-wildtype [IDH-wt], 27 patients) who underwent MRI and PET between May 2012 and December 2022. We calculated the fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) values using diffusion tensor imaging. We evaluated the tumor/normal brain uptake (T/N) ratios using 11C-methionine, 11C-choline, and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET; extracted the parameters with significant differences in distinguishing the IDH status; and verified their diagnostic accuracy. Patients with astrocytomas were significantly younger than those with glioblastomas. The following MRI findings were significant predictors of IDH-wt instead of IDH-mut: thalamus invasion, contralateral cerebral hemisphere invasion, location adjacent to the ventricular walls, higher FA value, and lower MD value. The T/N ratio for all tracers was significantly higher for IDH-wt than for IDH-mut. In a composite diagnosis based on nine parameters, including age, 84.4% of cases with 0-4 points were of IDH-mut; conversely, 100% of cases with 6-9 points were of IDH-wt. Composite diagnosis using all parameters, including MRI and PET findings with significant differences, may help guide treatment decisions for early-stage gliomas.

Abstract
Gliomas are highly heterogeneous in molecular, histology, and microenvironment. However, a classification of gliomas by integrating different tumor microenvironment (TME) components remains unexplored. Based on the enrichment scores of 17 pathways involved in immune, stromal, DNA repair, and nervous system signatures in diffuse gliomas, we performed consensus clustering to uncover novel subtypes of gliomas. Consistently in three glioma datasets (TCGA-glioma, CGGA325, and CGGA301), we identified three subtypes: Stromal-enriched (Str-G), Nerve-enriched (Ner-G), and mixed (Mix-G). Ner-G was charactered by low immune infiltration levels, stromal contents, tumor mutation burden, copy number alterations, DNA repair activity, cell proliferation, epithelial-mesenchymal transformation, stemness, intratumor heterogeneity, androgen receptor expression and EGFR, PTEN, NF1 and MUC16 mutation rates, while high enrichment of neurons and nervous system pathways, and high tumor purity, estrogen receptor expression, IDH1 and CIC mutation rates, temozolomide response rate and overall and disease-free survival rates. In contrast, Str-G displayed contrastive characteristics to Ner-G. Our analysis indicates that the heterogeneity between glioma cells and neurons is lower than that between glioma cells and immune and stromal cells. Furthermore, the abundance of neurons is positively associated with clinical outcomes in gliomas, while the enrichment of immune and stromal cells has a negative association with them. Our classification method provides new insights into the tumor biology of gliomas, as well as clinical implications for the precise management of this disease.

Abstract
A prompt and reliable molecular diagnosis for brain tumors has become crucial in precision medicine. While Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (CGP) has become feasible, there remains room for enhancement in brain tumor diagnosis due to the partial lack of essential genes and limitations in broad copy number analysis. In addition, the long turnaround time of commercially available CGPs poses an additional obstacle to the timely implementation of results in clinics. To address these challenges, we developed a CGP encompassing 113 genes, genome-wide copy number changes, and MGMT promoter methylation. Our CGP incorporates not only diagnostic genes but also supplementary genes valuable for research. Our CGP enables us to simultaneous identification of mutations, gene fusions, focal and broad copy number alterations, and MGMT promoter methylation status, with results delivered within a minimum of 4 days. Validation of our CGP, through comparisons with whole-genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and pyrosequencing, has certified its accuracy and reliability. We applied our CGP for 23 consecutive cases of intracranial mass lesions, which demonstrated its efficacy in aiding diagnosis and prognostication. Our CGP offers a comprehensive and rapid molecular profiling for gliomas, which could potentially apply to clinical practices and research primarily in the field of brain tumors.

Abstract
The co-occurrence of chromosome 10 loss and chromosome 7 gain in gliomas is the most frequent loss-gain co-aneuploidy pair in human cancers, a phenomenon that has been investigated without resolution since the late 1980s. Expanding beyond previous gene-centric studies, we investigate the co-occurrence in a genome-wide manner taking an evolutionary perspective. First, by mining large tumor aneuploidy data, we predict that the more likely order is 10 loss followed by 7 gain. Second, by analyzing extensive genomic and transcriptomic data from both patients and cell lines, we find that this co-occurrence can be explained by functional rescue interactions that are highly enriched on 7, which can possibly compensate for any detrimental consequences arising from the loss of 10. Finally, by analyzing transcriptomic data from normal, non-cancerous, human brain tissues, we provide a plausible reason why this co-occurrence happens preferentially in cancers originating in certain regions of the brain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA, liquid biopsy) is a powerful tool to detect molecular alterations. However, depending on tumor characteristics, biology and anatomic localization, cfDNA detection and analysis may be challenging. Gliomas are enclosed into an anatomic sanctuary, which obstacles the release of cfDNA into the peripheral blood. Therefore, the advantages of using liquid biopsy for brain tumors is still to be confirmed. The present study evaluates the ability of liquid biopsy to detect IDH1 mutations and its correlation with survival and clinical characteristics of glioma patients. METHODS Blood samples obtained from glioma patients were collected after surgery prior to the adjuvant therapy. cfDNA was extracted from plasma and IDH1 p.R132H mutation analysis was performed on a digital droplet PCR. χ2-test and Cohen k were used to assess the correlation between plasma and tissue IDH1 status, while Kaplan Meier curve and Cox regression analysis were applied to survival analysis. Statistical calculations were performed by MedCalc and GraphPad Prism software. RESULTS A total of 67 samples were collected. A concordance between IDH1 status in tissue and in plasma was found (p = 0.0024), and the presence of the IDH1 mutation both in tissue (138.8 months vs 24.4, p < 0.0001) and cfDNA (116.3 months vs 35.8, p = 0.016) was associated with longer median OS. A significant association between IDH1 mutation both in tissue and cfDNA, age, tumor grade and OS was demonstrated by univariate Cox regression analysis. No statistically significant association between IDH1 mutation and tumor grade was found (p = 0.10). CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrates that liquid biopsy may be used in brain tumors to detect IDH1 mutation which represents an important prognostic biomarker in patients with different types of gliomas, being associated to OS.

Abstract
Background Oncogenic FGFR-TACC fusions are present in 3-5% of high-grade gliomas (HGGs). Fexagratinib (AZD4547) is an oral FGFR1-3 inhibitor with preclinical activity in FGFR-TACC+ gliomas. We tested its safety and efficacy in patients with recurrent FGFR-TACC + HGGs. Patients and Methods TARGET (NCT02824133) is a phase I/II open-label multicenter study that included adult patients with FGFR-TACC + HGGs relapsing after ≥1 line of standard chemoradiation. Patients received fexagratinib 80 mg bd on a continuous schedule until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was the 6-month progression-free survival rate (PFS6). Results Twelve patients with recurrent IDH wildtype FGFR-TACC + HGGs (all FGFR3-TACC3+) were included in the efficacy cohort (male/female ratio = 1.4, median age = 61.5 years). Most patients (67%) were included at the first relapse. The PFS6 was 25% (95% confidence interval 5-57%), with a median PFS of 1.4 months. All patients without progression at 6 months (n = 3) were treated at first recurrence (versus 56% of those in progression) and remained progression-free for 14-23 months. The best response was RANO partial response in 1 patient (8%), stable disease in 5 (42%), and progressive disease in 6 (50%). Median survival was 17.5 months from inclusion. Grade 3 toxicities included lymphopenia, hyperglycaemia, stomatitis, nail changes, and alanine aminotransferase increase (n = 1 each). No grade 4-5 toxicities were seen. A 32-gene signature was associated with the benefit of FGFR inhibition in FGFR3-TACC3 + HGGs. Conclusions Fexagratinib exhibited acceptable toxicity but limited efficacy in recurrent FGFR3-TACC3 + HGGs. Patients treated at first recurrence appeared more likely to benefit, yet additional evidence is required.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive brain tumor associated with limited therapeutic options and a poor prognosis. CXCR3, a chemokine receptor, serves dual autocrine-paracrine functions in cancer. Despite gaps in our understanding of the functional role of the CXCR3 receptor in GBM, it has been shown to hold promise as a therapeutic target for the treatment of GBM. Existing clinical therapeutics and vaccines targeting CXCR3 ligand expression associated with the CXCR3 axes have also shown anti-tumorigenic effects in GBM. This review summarizes existing evidence on the oncogenic function of CXCR3 and its ligands CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11, in GBM, and examines the controversies concerning the immunomodulatory functions of the CXCR3 receptor, including immune T cell recruitment, polarization, and positioning. The mechanisms underlying monotherpies and combination therapies targeting the CXCR3 pathways are discussed. A better understanding of the CXCR3 axes may lead to the development of strategies for overcoming the limitations of existing immunotherapies for GBM.

Abstract
Primary brain tumors underwent reclassification in the 2021 World Health Organization update, relying on molecular findings (especially isocitrate dehydrogenase mutations and chromosomal changes in 1p, 19q, gain of chromosome 7 and loss of chromosome 10). Newer entities have also been described including histone 3 mutant midline gliomas. These updated pathologic classifications improve prognostication and reliable diagnosis, but may confuse interpretation of prior clinical trials and require reclassification of patients diagnosed in the past. For patients over seventy, multiple studies have now confirmed the utility of shorter courses of radiation, and the risk of post-operative delirium. Ongoing studies are comparing proton to photon radiation. Long term follow up of prior clinical trials have confirmed the roles and length of chemotherapy (mainly temozolomide) in different tumors, as well as the wearable novottf device. New oral isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibitors have also shown efficacy in clinical trials.

Abstract
In IDH-mutant astrocytoma, IDH2 mutation is quite rare and biological mechanisms underlying tumor progression in IDH2-mutant astrocytoma remain elusive. Here, we report a unique case of IDH2 mutant astrocytoma, CNS WHO grade 3 that developed tumor progression. We performed a comprehensive genomic and epigenomic analysis for primary and recurrent tumors and found that both tumors harbored recurrent IDH2R172K and TP53R248W mutation with CDKN2A/B hemizygous deletion. We also found amplifications of CDK4 and MDM2 with PDGFRA gain in the recurrent tumor and upregulated protein expressions of these genes. We further developed, for the first time, a xenograft mouse model of IDH2R172K and TP53R248W mutant astrocytoma from the recurrent tumor, but not from the primary tumor. Consistent with parent recurrent tumor cells, amplifications of CDK4 and MDM2 and PDGFRA gain were found, while CDKN2A/B was identified as homozygous deletion in the xenografts, qualifying for integrated diagnosis of astrocytoma, IDH2-mutant, CNS WHO grade 4. Cell viability assay found that CDK4/6 inhibitor and PDGFR inhibitor potently decreased cell viability in recurrent tumor cells, as compared to primary tumor cells. These findings suggest that gene alterations that activate retinoblastoma (RB) signaling pathways and PDGFR may drive tumor progression and xenograft formation in IDH2-mutant astrocytoma, which is equivalent to progressive IDH1-mutant astrocytoma. Also, our findings suggest that these genomic alterations may represent therapeutic targets in IDH2-mutant astrocytoma.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to assess the value of biomarker based radiomics to predict IDH mutation in gliomas. The patient cohort consists of 160 patients histopathologicaly proven of primary glioma (WHO grades 2-4) from 3 different centers. Methods To quantify the DSC perfusion signal two different mathematical modeling methods were used (Gamma fitting, leakage correction algorithms) considering the assumptions about the compartments contributing in the blood flow between the extra- and intra vascular space. Results The Mean slope of increase (MSI) and the K1 parameter of the bidirectional exchange model exhibited the highest performance with (ACC 74.3% AUROC 74.2%) and (ACC 75% AUROC 70.5%) respectively. Conclusion The proposed framework on DSC-MRI radiogenomics in gliomas has the potential of becoming a reliable diagnostic support tool exploiting the mathematical modeling of the DSC signal to characterize IDH mutation status through a more reproducible and standardized signal analysis scheme for facilitating clinical translation.

[PMID: 37714375 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuchi.2023.101494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 09/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypnosis-aided craniotomy is a safe alternative to standard asleep-awake-asleep (AAA) surgery in glioma surgery. The impact of these two anesthetic methods on tumor prognosis has never been assessed. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the possible impact of the type of sedation (i.e., hypnosedation vs. standard sedation) on postoperative outcomes in awake surgery for gliomas. METHODS Adult patients who underwent awake surgery for a diffuse glioma, excluding glioblastomas, between May 2011 and December 2019 at the authors' institution were included in the analysis. Pearson Chi-square, Fisher exact, and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for inferential analyses. RESULTS Sixty-one (61) patients were included, thirty-one were female (50.8 %), and the mean age was 41.8 years (SD = 11.88). Most patients had IDH mutated tumors (n = 51; 83.6%). Twenty-six patients (42.6%) were hypnosedated while 35 (57.4%) received standard AAA procedure. The overall median follow-up time was 48 months (range: 10 months-120 months). Our results did not identify any significant difference between both techniques in terms of extent of resection (sub-total resection >95% rates were 11.48% vs. 8.20%, OR = 2.2, 95% CI = 0.62-8.44; P = 0.34) and of overall survival (87.5% of patients in the AAA surgery group reach 9 years OS vs. 79% in the hypnosis cohort, cHR = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.12-6.04; P = 0.87). CONCLUSION Hypnosis for awake craniotomy is rarely proposed although it is a suitable alternative to standard sedation in awake craniotomy for LGGs, with similar results in terms of extent of resection or survival.

Natural language processing to predict isocitrate dehydrogenase genotype in diffuse glioma using MR radiology reports. Eur Radiol 2023; 33:8017-8025. [PMID: 37566271 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-10061-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the performance of natural language processing (NLP) models to predict isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status in diffuse glioma using routine MR radiology reports. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective, multi-center study included consecutive patients with diffuse glioma with known IDH mutation status from May 2009 to November 2021 whose initial MR radiology report was available prior to pathologic diagnosis. Five NLP models (long short-term memory [LSTM], bidirectional LSTM, bidirectional encoder representations from transformers [BERT], BERT graph convolutional network [GCN], BioBERT) were trained, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was assessed to validate prediction of IDH mutation status in the internal and external validation sets. The performance of the best performing NLP model was compared with that of the human readers. RESULTS A total of 1427 patients (mean age ± standard deviation, 54 ± 15; 779 men, 54.6%) with 720 patients in the training set, 180 patients in the internal validation set, and 527 patients in the external validation set were included. In the external validation set, BERT GCN showed the highest performance (AUC 0.85, 95% CI 0.81-0.89) in predicting IDH mutation status, which was higher than LSTM (AUC 0.77, 95% CI 0.72-0.81; p = .003) and BioBERT (AUC 0.81, 95% CI 0.76-0.85; p = .03). This was higher than that of a neuroradiologist (AUC 0.80, 95% CI 0.76-0.84; p = .005) and a neurosurgeon (AUC 0.79, 95% CI 0.76-0.84; p = .04). CONCLUSION BERT GCN was externally validated to predict IDH mutation status in patients with diffuse glioma using routine MR radiology reports with superior or at least comparable performance to human reader. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Natural language processing may be used to extract relevant information from routine radiology reports to predict cancer genotype and provide prognostic information that may aid in guiding treatment strategy and enabling personalized medicine. KEY POINTS • A transformer-based natural language processing (NLP) model predicted isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation status in diffuse glioma with an AUC of 0.85 in the external validation set. • The best NLP models were superior or at least comparable to human readers in both internal and external validation sets. • Transformer-based models showed higher performance than conventional NLP model such as long short-term memory.

Evaluation of isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation in 2021 world health organization classification grade 3 and 4 glioma adult-type diffuse gliomas with 18F-fluoromisonidazole PET. Jpn J Radiol 2023; 41:1255-1264. [PMID: 37219717 PMCID: PMC10613590 DOI: 10.1007/s11604-023-01450-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the uptake characteristics of 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO), in mutant-type isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH-mutant, grade 3 and 4) and wild-type IDH (IDH-wildtype, grade 4) 2021 WHO classification adult-type diffuse gliomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with grade 3 and 4 adult-type diffuse gliomas (n = 35) were included in this prospective study. After registering 18F-FMISO PET and MR images, standardized uptake value (SUV) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) were evaluated in hyperintense areas on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) imaging (HIA), and in contrast-enhanced tumors (CET) by manually placing 3D volumes of interest. Relative SUVmax (rSUVmax) and SUVmean (rSUVmean), 10th percentile of ADC (ADC10pct), mean ADC (ADCmean) were measured in HIA and CET, respectively. RESULTS rSUVmean in HIA and rSUVmean in CET were significantly higher in IDH-wildtype than in IDH-mutant (P = 0.0496 and 0.03, respectively). The combination of FMISO rSUVmean in HIA and ADC10pct in CET, that of rSUVmax and ADC10pct in CET, that of rSUVmean in HIA and ADCmean in CET, were able to differentiate IDH-mutant from IDH-wildtype (AUC 0.80). When confined to astrocytic tumors except for oligodendroglioma, rSUVmax, rSUVmean in HIA and rSUVmean in CET were higher for IDH-wildtype than for IDH-mutant, but not significantly (P = 0.23, 0.13 and 0.14, respectively). The combination of FMISO rSUVmean in HIA and ADC10pct in CET was able to differentiate IDH-mutant (AUC 0.81). CONCLUSION PET using 18F-FMISO and ADC might provide a valuable tool for differentiating between IDH mutation status of 2021 WHO classification grade 3 and 4 adult-type diffuse gliomas.

Abstract
Among the leading causes of death globally has been cancer. Nearly 90% of all cancer-related fatalities are attributed to metastasis, which is the growing of additional malignant growths out of the original cancer origin. Therefore, a significant clinical need for a deeper comprehension of metastasis exists. Beginning investigations are being made on the function of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the metastatic process. Tiny non-coding RNAs called miRNAs have a crucial part in controlling the spread of cancer. Some miRNAs regulate migration, invasion, colonization, cancer stem cells' properties, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and the microenvironment, among other processes, to either promote or prevent metastasis. One of the most well-conserved and versatile miRNAs, miR-155 is primarily distinguished by overexpression in a variety of illnesses, including malignant tumors. It has been discovered that altered miR-155 expression is connected to a number of physiological and pathological processes, including metastasis. As a result, miR-155-mediated signaling pathways were identified as possible cancer molecular therapy targets. The current research on miR-155, which is important in controlling cancer cells' invasion, and metastasis as well as migration, will be summarized in the current work. The crucial significance of the lncRNA/circRNA-miR-155-mRNA network as a crucial regulator of carcinogenesis and a player in the regulation of signaling pathways or related genes implicated in cancer metastasis will be covered in the final section. These might provide light on the creation of fresh treatment plans for controlling cancer metastasis.

Machado GC, Ferrer VP. MUC17 mutations and methylation are associated with poor prognosis in adult-type diffuse glioma patients. J Neurol Sci 2023; 452:120762.

Abstract
Diffuse gliomas are tumors that arise from glial or glial progenitor cells. They are currently classified as astrocytoma isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant or oligodendroglioma IDH-mutant, and 1p/19q-codeleted, both slower-growing tumors, or glioblastoma (GBM), a more aggressive tumor. Despite advances in the diagnosis and treatment of gliomas, the median survival time after diagnosis of GBM remains low, approximately 15 months, with a 5-year overall survival rate of only 6.8%. Therefore, new biomarkers that could support the earlier diagnosis and prognosis of these tumors would be of great value. MUC17, a membrane-bound mucin, has been identified as a potential biomarker for several tumors. However, the role of this mucin in adult gliomas has not yet been explored. Here, we show for the first time, in a retrospective study and by in silico analysis that MUC17 is one of the relevant mutant genes in adult gliomas. Moreover, that an increase in MUC17 methylation correlates with an increase in glioma malignancy grade. Patients with MUC17 mutations had a poorer prognosis than their wild-type counterparts in both GBM and non-GBM glioma cohorts. We also analyzed mutational profiles that correlated strongly with poor survival. Therefore, in this study, we present a new potential biomarker for further investigation, especially for the prognosis of adult diffuse gliomas.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The differential diagnosis of brain diseases becomes challenging in cases where imaging is not sufficiently informative, and surgical biopsy is impossible or unacceptable to the patient. METHODS An elderly patient with progressive short-term memory loss and cognitive impairment presented with a normal brain CT scan, a brain FDG-PET that indicated symmetrical deterioration of the white matter in the frontal lobes, and inconclusive results of a molecular marker analysis of suspected dementia in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Brain MRI suggested the diagnosis of lower grade glioma. The patient refused surgical biopsy. In order to investigate whether somatic mutations associated with gliomas existed, we performed a "liquid biopsy" by the targeted sequencing of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from his CSF. RESULTS Deep sequencing of the cfDNA from CSF revealed somatic mutations characteristically found in gliomas, including mutations of the TP53 (Arg282Trp), BRAF (Val600Glu), and IDH1 (Arg132His) genes. The patient is currently treated with temozolomide, and his clinical and MRI findings suggest the stabilization of his disease. CONCLUSION Neurological patients may benefit from liquid biopsy diagnostic work-up as it can reveal therapeutically targetable mutations.

Eur Radiol 2023; 33:6107-6115. [PMID: 37036480 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-09582-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/11/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize the structural plasticity of the contralesional hippocampus and its subfields in patients with unilateral glioma. METHODS 3D T1-weighted MRI images were collected from 55 patients with tumors infiltrating the left (HipL, n = 27) or right (HipR, n = 28) hippocampus, along with 30 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC). Gray matter volume differences of the contralesional hippocampal regions and three control regions (superior frontal gyrus, caudate nucleus, and superior occipital gyrus) were evaluated using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) analyses. Volumetric differences in the hippocampus and its subregional volume were measured using the FreeSurfer software. RESULTS Compared with HC, patients with unilateral hippocampal glioma exhibited significantly larger gray matter volume in the contralesional hippocampus and parahippocampal regions (cluster = 571 voxels for HipL; cluster 1 = 538 voxels and cluster 2 = 88 voxels for HipR; family-wise error corrected p < 0.05). No significant alterations were found in control regions. Volumetric analyses showed the same trend in the contralesional hippocampal subregions for both patient groups, including the CA1 head, CA3 head, hippocampus amygdala transition area (HATA), fimbria, and the granule cell molecular layer of the dentate gyrus head (GC-ML-DG head). Notably, the differences of the contralesional HATA (HipL: η2 = 0.418, corrected p = 0.002; HipR: η2 = 0.313, corrected p = 0.052) and fimbria (HipL: η2 = 0.450, corrected p < 0.001; HipR: η2 = 0.358, corrected p = 0.012) still held after the Bonferroni correction. CONCLUSIONS Our findings provide evidence for macrostructural plasticity of the contralateral hippocampus in patients with unilateral hippocampal glioma. Specifically, HATA and fimbria exhibit great potential in this process. KEY POINTS • Glioma infiltration of the hippocampal regions induces a significant increase in gray matter volume on the contralateral side. • Specifically, the HATA and fimbria regions exhibit favorable plastic potential in the process of lesion-induced structural remolding.

Apparent Diffusion Coefficient as Imaging Biomarker for Identifying IDH Mutation, 1p19q Codeletion, and MGMT Promoter Methylation Status in Patients With Glioma. J Magn Reson Imaging 2023; 58:732-738. [PMID: 36594577 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28589] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 11/20/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioma genotypes are of importance for clinical decision-making. This data can only be acquired through histopathological analysis based on resection or biopsy. Consequently, there is a need for alternative biomarkers that noninvasively provide reliable information for preoperatively identifying molecular characteristics. PURPOSE To investigate apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) as imaging biomarker for preoperatively identifying glioma genotypes based on the 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. SUBJECTS One hundred and fifty-nine patients (47.6 ± 14.4 years) diagnosed with WHO grade 2-4 glioma including 93 males and 66 females. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE A 3 T/spin echo echo planner imaging. ASSESSMENT The ADC measurements were assessed by two neuroradiologists (both with 6 years of experience). Three different lowest portions inside the tumors without overlap were manually drawn on the ADC maps as regions of interest (ROIs). The mean ADC value of the three ROIs was defined as the minimum ADC value (ADCmin ). An ROI was placed in the contralateral normal appearing white matter (NAWM) to obtain the ADC value (ADCNAWM ). The ADCmin to ADCNAWM ratio (ADCratio ) was calculated. Genetics results were retrospectively recorded from pathologic and genetic test reports. STATISTICAL TESTS Two-sample independent t-tests, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, and intraclass correlation coefficient analysis were used. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. RESULTS Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutated glioma showed higher ADCmin and ADCratio than IDH wild-type glioma. Among IDH-mutated glioma, higher ADCmin and ADCratio were found in 1p19q intact glioma than in 1p19q codeletion glioma. ADC parameters enabled differentiation of IDH mutation status with area under the curve (AUC) of 0.84 and 0.86. DATA CONCLUSION ADC has potential discriminative value for IDH mutation and 1p19q codeletion status. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3. TECHNICAL EFFICACY Stage 2.

Curr Oncol 2023; 30:7818-7835.

Abstract
Gliomas are the most frequent intrinsic central nervous system tumors. The new 2021 WHO Classification of Central Nervous System Tumors brought significant changes into the classification of gliomas, that underline the role of molecular diagnostics, with the adult-type diffuse glial tumors now identified primarily by their biomarkers rather than histology. The status of the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 or 2 describes tumors at their molecular level and together with the presence or absence of 1p/19q codeletion are the most important biomarkers used for the classification of adult-type diffuse glial tumors. In recent years terminology has also changed. IDH-mutant, as previously known, is diagnostically used as astrocytoma and IDH-wildtype is used as glioblastoma. A comprehensive understanding of these tumors not only gives patients a more proper treatment and better prognosis but also highlights new difficulties. MR imaging is of the utmost importance for diagnosing and supervising the response to treatment. By monitoring the tumor on followup exams better results can be achieved. Correlations are seen between tumor diagnostic and clinical manifestation and surgical administration, followup care, oncologic treatment, and outcomes. Minimal resection site use of functional imaging (fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) have become indispensable tools in invasive treatment. Perfusion imaging provides insightful information about the vascularity of the tumor, spectroscopy shows metabolic activity, and nuclear medicine imaging displays tumor metabolism. To accommodate better treatment the differentiation of pseudoprogression, pseudoresponse, or radiation necrosis is needed. In this report, we present a literature review of diagnostics of gliomas, the differences in their imaging features, and our radiology's departments accumulated experience concerning gliomas.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the prognosis of glioma patients with different molecular subtypes of who treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). METHODS We collected 45 glioma patients treated in our hospital between January 2017 and December 2020. All enrolled patients received postoperative IMRT and were divided into two groups based on the Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH status). Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were estimated retrospectively. RESULTS The median follow-up was 22 months (range 2-108.5 months). The 1-year OS of IDH-mut group and ΙDH-wild group was similar (77.3% vs. 81.5%, p = 0.16). While the 1-year PFS of IDH-mut group was significantly higher than that in ΙDH-wild group (90.4% vs. 39.8%, p = 0.0051). Subgroup analysis revealed that the 1-year PFS of IDH-mut/1p/19q codeletion group and IDH-mut/1p/19q noncodeletion group was significantly higher than in IDH-wild type patients. For patients with IDH-mut/MGMT-methylation, the outcome was no significant difference in OS, but PFS was longer than other subtypes. CONCLUSION This retrospective study showed that 1-year PFS of patients with IDH mutated was better than IDH-wild type patients. In subgroups analysis, the outcomes were shown that patients with IDH-mut/ 1p/19q codeletion and patients with IDH-mut/1p/19q noncodeletion had longer 1-year PFS than IDH-wild type patients, but the OS was similar between the subgroups. Patients with IDH-mut/MGMT-methylation had the best prognosis in the whole subgroups. However, these results still need further confirmation of large sample size, prospectively, randomized controlled trails.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Glioma is the most common primary brain tumor and is often associated with treatment resistance and poor prognosis. Standard treatment typically involves radiotherapy and temozolomide-based chemotherapy, both of which induce cellular senescence-a tumor suppression mechanism. DISCUSSION Gliomas employ various mechanisms to bypass or escape senescence and remain in a proliferative state. Importantly, senescent cells remain viable and secrete a large number of factors collectively known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) that, paradoxically, also have pro-tumorigenic effects. Furthermore, senescent cells may represent one form of tumor dormancy and play a role in glioma recurrence and progression. CONCLUSION In this article, we delineate an overview of senescence in the context of gliomas, including the mechanisms that lead to senescence induction, bypass, and escape. Furthermore, we examine the role of senescent cells in the tumor microenvironment and their role in tumor progression and recurrence. Additionally, we highlight potential therapeutic opportunities for targeting senescence in glioma.

Abstract
AIMS The distinction between CNS WHO grade 2 and grade 3 is instrumental in choosing between observational follow-up and adjuvant treatment for resected astrocytomas IDH-mutant. However, the criteria of CNS WHO grade 2 vs 3 have not been updated since the pre-IDH era. METHODS Maximal mitotic activity in consecutive high-power fields corresponding to 3 mm2 was examined for 118 lower-grade astrocytomas IDH-mutant. The prognostic value for time-to-treatment (TTT) and overall survival (OS) of mitotic activity and other putative prognostic factors (including age, performance status, pre-surgical tumour volume, multilobar involvement, post-surgical residual tumour volume and midline involvement) was assessed for tumours with ATRX loss and the absence of CDKN2A homozygous deletion or CDK4 amplification, contrast enhancement, histological necrosis and microvascular proliferation. RESULTS Seventy-one per cent of the samples had <6 mitoses per 3 mm2 . Mitotic activity, residual volume and multilobar involvement were independent prognostic factors of TTT. The threshold of ≥6 mitoses per 3 mm2 identified patients with a shorter TTT (median 18.5 months). A residual volume ≥1 cm3 also identified patients with a shorter TTT (median 24.5 months). The group defined by <6 mitoses per 3 mm2 and a residual volume <1 cm3 had the longest TTT (median 73 months) and OS (100% survival at 7 years). These findings were confirmed in a validation cohort of 52 tumours. CONCLUSIONS Mitotic activity and post-surgical residual volume can be combined to evaluate the prognosis for patients with resected astrocytomas IDH-mutant. Patients with <6 mitoses per 3 mm2 and a residual volume <1 cm3 were the best candidates for observational follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Median survival with glioblastoma remains in the range of 12 months on population levels. Only few patients survive for more than 5 years. Patient and disease features associated with long-term survival remain poorly defined. METHODS European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) 1419 (ETERNITY) is a registry study supported by the Brain Tumor Funders Collaborative in the US and the EORTC Brain Tumor Group. Patients with glioblastoma surviving at least 5 years from diagnosis were identified at 24 sites in Europe, US, and Australia. In patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wildtype tumours, prognostic factors were analysed using the Kaplan-Meier method and the Cox proportional hazards model. A population-based reference cohort was obtained from the Cantonal cancer registry Zurich. RESULTS At the database lock of July 2020, 280 patients with histologically centrally confirmed glioblastoma (189 IDH wildtype, 80 IDH mutant, 11 incompletely characterised) had been registered. In the IDH wildtype population, median age was 56 years (range 24-78 years), 96 patients (50.8%) were female, 139 patients (74.3%) had tumours with O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation. Median overall survival was 9.9 years (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 7.9-11.9). Patients without recurrence experienced longer median survival (not reached) than patients with one or more recurrences (8.92 years) (p < 0.001) and had a high rate (48.8%) of MGMT promoter-unmethylated tumours. CONCLUSIONS Freedom from progression is a powerful predictor of overall survival in long-term survivors with glioblastoma. Patients without relapse often have MGMT promoter-unmethylated glioblastoma and may represent a distinct subtype of glioblastoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status is a key diagnostic and prognostic feature of gliomas. It is thought to occur early in glioma tumorigenesis and remain stable over time. However, there are reports documenting a loss of IDH mutation status in a subset of patients with glioma recurrence. Here, we identified patients with a documented loss of IDH mutation status longitudinally and performed multi-platform analysis in order to determine if IDH mutations are stable throughout glioma evolution. METHODS We retrospectively identified patients from our institution from 2009 to 2018 with immunohistochemistry (IHC)-recorded IDH mutation status changes longitudinally. Archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded and frozen tissue samples from these patients were collected from our institution's tumour bank. Samples were analysed using methylation profiling, copy number variation, Sanger sequencing, droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) and IHC. RESULTS We reviewed 1491 archived glioma samples including 78 patients with multiple IDH mutant tumour samples collected longitudinally. In all instances of documented loss of IDH mutation status, multi-platform profiling identified a mixture of low tumour cell content and non-neoplastic tissue including perilesional, reactive or inflammatory cells. CONCLUSIONS All patients with a documented loss of IDH mutation status longitudinally were resolved through multi-platform analysis. These findings support the hypothesis that IDH mutations occur early in gliomagenesis and in the absence of copy number changes at the IDH loci and are stable throughout tumour treatment and evolution. Our study highlights the importance of accurate surgical sampling and the role of DNA methylome profiling in diagnostically uncertain cases for integrated pathological and molecular diagnosis.

Abstract
Introduction Despite the growing advances in molecular research and therapeutics, gliomas continue to be highly invasive and progressive tumors. There is still a need for the development of reliable prognostic biomarkers for effective therapeutic intervention. This study aims to investigate the extent of immunosuppression in glial tumors by analyzing the clinical significance of the expressions of PD-1 and FOXP3 in gliomas. Methods This is a retrospective study from 52 glioma patients who underwent surgery. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for PD-1 and FOXP3 was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue sections manually and their expressions were noted. Data on IDH1 mutational status and mitotic index was collected and statistically analyzed. Results Immunohistochemical analysis showed that out of 52 cases, 71.15% (37/52) demonstrated cytoplasmic positivity for PD-1 and 73.1% (38/52) of the cases for nuclear FOXP3 expression. Statistical analysis suggested that elevated PD-1 and FOXP3 expressions were significantly correlated with tumor grade and increased mitotic index (P<0.05 for both the markers). Conclusion Concurrent use of checkpoint inhibitors along with other treatment modalities is being studied in a variety of solid tumors. Expressions of negative immune regulators like PD-1 and Foxp3 can pave way for a better understanding of the extent of immunosuppression in the glial tumor environment, which is imperative to formulate new therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lower-grade (grade 2-3) gliomas (LGGs) constitutes a group of primary brain tumors with variable clinical behaviors and treatment responses. Recent advancements in molecular biology have redefined their classification, and novel imaging modalities emerged for the noninvasive diagnosis and follow-up. AREAS COVERED This review comprehensively analyses the current knowledge on molecular and imaging biomarkers in LGGs. Key molecular alterations, such as IDH mutations and 1p/19q codeletion, are discussed for their prognostic and predictive implications in guiding treatment decisions. Moreover, the authors explore theranostic biomarkers for the potential of tailored therapies. Additionally, they also describe the utility of advanced imaging modalities, including widely available techniques, as dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion-weighted imaging and less validated, emerging approaches, for the noninvasive LGGs characterization and follow-up. EXPERT OPINION The integration of molecular markers enhanced the stratification of LGGs, leading to the new concept of integrated histomolecular classification. While the IDH mutation is an established key prognostic and predictive marker, recent results from IDH inhibitors trials showed its potential value as a theranostic marker. In this setting, advanced MRI techniques such as 2-D-hydroxyglutarate spectroscopy are very promising for the noninvasive diagnosis and monitoring of LGGs. This progress offers exciting prospects for personalized medicine and improved treatment outcomes in LGGs.

Abstract
Gliomas harbouring mutations in IDH1 (isocitrate dehydrogenase 1) are characterized by greater sensitivity to chemotherapeutics. These mutants also exhibit diminished levels of transcriptional coactivator YAP1 (yes-associated protein 1). Enhanced DNA damage in IDH1 mutant cells, as evidenced by γH2AX formation (phosphorylation of histone variant H2A.X) and ATM (serine/threonine kinase; ataxia telangiectasia mutated) phosphorylation, was accompanied by reduced FOLR1 (folate receptor 1) expression. Diminished FOLR1, concomitant with heightened γH2AX levels, was also observed in patient-derived IDH1 mutant glioma tissues. Chromatin immunoprecipitation, overexpression of mutant YAP1, and treatment with YAP1-TEAD (TEA domain transcription factors) complex inhibitor verteporfin demonstrated regulation of FOLR1 expression by YAP1 and its partner transcription factor TEAD2. TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) data analysis demonstrated better patient survival with reduced FOLR1 expression. Depletion of FOLR1 rendered IDH1 wild-type gliomas more susceptible to temozolomide-mediated death. Despite heightened DNA damage, IDH1 mutants exhibited reduced levels of IL6 (interleukin 6) and IL8 (interleukin 8) - pro-inflammatory cytokines known to be associated with persistent DNA damage. While both FOLR1 and YAP1 influenced DNA damage, only YAP1 was involved in regulating IL6 and IL8. ESTIMATE and CIBERSORTx analyses revealed the association between YAP1 expression and immune cell infiltration in gliomas. By identifying the influence of YAP1-FOLR1 link in DNA damage, our findings suggest that simultaneous depletion of both could amplify the potency of DNA damaging agents, while concomitantly reducing the release of inflammatory mediators and potentially affecting immune modulation. This study also highlights the novel role of FOLR1 as a probable prognostic marker in gliomas, predicting responsiveness to temozolomide and other DNA damaging agents.

Abstract
Introduction Among all types of central nervous system cancers, glioma remains the most frequent primary brain tumor in adults. Despite significant advances in immunomodulatory therapies, notably immune checkpoint inhibitors, their effectiveness remains constrained due to glioma resistance. The discovery of TMIGD2 (Transmembrane and Immunoglobulin Domain Containing 2) as an immuno-stimulatory receptor, constitutively expressed on naive T cells and most natural killer (NK) cells, has emerged as an attractive immunotherapy target in a variety of cancers. The expression profile of TMIGD2 and its significance in the overall survival of glioma patients remains unknown. Methods In the present study, we first assessed TMIGD2 mRNA expression using the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) glioma transcriptome dataset (667 patients), followed by validation with the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) cohort (693 patients). Secondly, we examined TMIGD2 protein staining in a series of 25 paraffin-embedded blocks from Moroccan glioma patients. The statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 8 software. Results TMIGD2 expression was found to be significantly higher in astrocytoma, IDH-1 mutations, low-grade, and young glioma patients. TMIGD2 was expressed on immune cells and, surprisingly, on tumor cells of glioma patients. Interestingly, our study demonstrated that TMIGD2 expression was negatively correlated with angiogenesis, hypoxia, G2/M checkpoint, and epithelial to mesenchymal transition signaling pathways. We also demonstrated that dendritic cells, monocytes, NK cells, gd T cells, and naive CD8 T cell infiltration correlates positively with TMIGD2 expression. On the other hand, Mantel-Cox analysis demonstrated that increased expression of TMIGD2 in human gliomas is associated with good overall survival. Cox multivariable analysis revealed that TMIGD2 is an independent predictor of a good prognosis in glioma patients. Discussion Taken together, our results highlight the tight implication of TMIGD2 in glioma progression and show its promising therapeutic potential as a stimulatory target for immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma is considered the most aggressive primary brain tumor. Recurrence after treatment is a significant problem with a failed response to optimal treatment. The recurrence of GBM is linked to different cellular and molecular pathways. Nationwide, in Egypt, astrocytic tumors are the most commonly diagnosed CNS tumor. Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK CD246) is an enzymatic protein (RTK) belonging to the insulin receptors superfamily. METHODS This is a retrospective study including sixty cases of astrocytic tumors (males = 40, mean age = 31.5), (females = 20, mean age = 37.77) obtained through collecting archived paraffin blocks of astrocytic tumor from the Pathology Department, Cairo University Faculty of Medicine during the period from January 2015 till January 2019. All cases were evaluated for ALK expression trying to find any clinical correlations with the clinical data. RESULTS Correlations were made using a scatterplot matrix correlogram. There was a significant correlation between tumor recurrence and ALK expression (r = 0.8, P < 0.01), and incidence of postoperative seizures (r = 0.8, P < 0.05), and between mean age and score tumor (r = 0.8, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Expression of ALK was found to be abundant among high-grade gliomas and tumor recurrence rate was higher in ALK-positive patients. Further studies are needed to evaluate the potential use of ALK as a prognostic marker in cases of GBM.

Abstract
Gemistocytic differentiation is a rare histological feature seen in IDH mutant Astrocytomas. The 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) retains the diagnosis of IDH mutant Astrocytoma with its classical histology and tumors with the rare histological pattern of gemistocytic differentiation. Gemistocytic differentiation has historically been associated with a worse prognosis and shorter survival, and this prognostic difference has not been investigated in detail in our population. A population-based retrospective study included 56 patients with IDH mutant Astrocytoma with Gemistocytic differentiation and IDH mutant Astrocytoma diagnosed between 2010 and 2018 in our hospital. Demographic, histopathological, and clinical parameters were compared between the two groups. Gemistocyte percentage, perivascular lymphoid infiltrates, and Ki-67 proliferation index were also analyzed. A Kaplan-Meier analysis was done to analyze any prognostic difference in the overall survival time between the two groups. Patients with an IDH mutant Astrocytoma having gemistocytic differentiation had an average survival period of 2 years, while patients diagnosed with an IDH mutant Astrocytoma had an average survival time of approximately 6 years. There was a statistically significant decrease in survival time (p = 0.005) for patients with tumors with gemistocytic differentiation. The percentage of gemistocytes and the presence of perivascular lymphoid aggregates did not correlate with survival time (p = 0.303 and 0.602, respectively). Tumors with gemistocytic morphology had a higher mean Ki-67 proliferation index (4.4%) than IDH mutant Astrocytoma (2.0%, p = 0.005). Our data suggest that IDH mutant Astrocytoma with Gemistocytic differentiation is an aggressive variant of IDH mutant Astrocytoma associated with a shorter survival time and an overall worse prognosis. This data might be helpful to clinicians in the future management of IDH mutant Astrocytoma with Gesmistocytic differentiation as an aggressive tumor.

Abstract
Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults. A diffuse infiltrative growth pattern and high resistance to therapy make them largely incurable, but there are significant differences in the prognosis of patients with different subtypes of glioma. Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) have been recognized as an important biomarker for glioma classification and a potential therapeutic target. However, current clinical methods for detecting mutated IDH (mIDH) require invasive tissue sampling and cannot be used for follow-up examinations or longitudinal studies. PET imaging could be a promising approach for non-invasive assessment of the IDH status in gliomas, owing to the availability of various mIDH-selective inhibitors as potential leads for the development of PET tracers. In the present review, we summarize the rationale for the development of mIDH-selective PET probes, describe their potential applications beyond the assessment of the IDH status and highlight potential challenges that may complicate tracer development. In addition, we compile the major chemical classes of mIDH-selective inhibitors that have been described to date and briefly consider possible strategies for radiolabeling of the most promising candidates. Where available, we also summarize previous studies with radiolabeled analogs of mIDH inhibitors and assess their suitability for PET imaging in gliomas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 (OLIG2) is universally expressed in human glioblastoma (GB). Our study explores whether OLIG2 expression impacts GB patients' overall survival and establishes a machine learning model for OLIG2 level prediction in patients with GB based on clinical, semantic, and magnetic resonance imaging radiomic features. METHODS Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to determine the optimal cutoff value of the OLIG2 in 168 GB patients. Three hundred thirteen patients enrolled in the OLIG2 prediction model were randomly divided into training and testing sets in a ratio of 7:3. The radiomic, semantic, and clinical features were collected for each patient. Recursive feature elimination (RFE) was used for feature selection. The random forest (RF) model was built and fine-tuned, and the area under the curve was calculated to evaluate the performance. Finally, a new testing set excluding IDH-mutant patients was built and tested in a predictive model using the fifth edition of the central nervous system tumor classification criteria. RESULTS One hundred nineteen patients were included in the survival analysis. Oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 was positively associated with GB survival, with an optimal cutoff of 10% (P = 0.00093). One hundred thirty-four patients were eligible for the OLIG2 prediction model. An RFE-RF model based on 2 semantic and 21 radiomic signatures achieved areas under the curve of 0.854 in the training set, 0.819 in the testing set, and 0.825 in the new testing set. CONCLUSIONS Glioblastoma patients with ≤10% OLIG2 expression tended to have worse overall survival. An RFE-RF model integrating 23 features can predict the OLIG2 level of GB patients preoperatively, irrespective of the central nervous system classification criteria, further guiding individualized treatment.

Abstract
Malignant gliomas such as glioblastoma are highly heterogeneous with distinct cells of origin and varied genetic alterations. It remains elusive whether the specific states of neural cell lineages are differentially susceptible to distinct genetic alterations during malignant transformation. Here, an analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas databases revealed that comutations of PTEN and TP53 are most significantly enriched in human high-grade gliomas. Therefore, we selectively ablated Pten and Trp53 in different progenitors to determine which cell lineage states are susceptible to malignant transformation. Mice with PTEN/p53 ablation mediated by multilineage-expressing human GFAP (hGFAP) promoter-driven Cre developed glioma but with incomplete penetrance and long latency. Unexpectedly, ablation of Pten and Trp53 in Nestin+ neural stem cells (NSC) or Pdgfra+/NG2+ committed oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPC), two major cells of origin in glioma, did not induce glioma formation in mice. Strikingly, mice lacking Pten and Trp53 in Olig1+/Olig2+ intermediate precursors (pri-OPC) prior to the committed OPCs developed high-grade gliomas with 100% penetrance and short latency. The resulting tumors exhibited distinct tumor phenotypes and drug sensitivities from NSC- or OPC-derived glioma subtypes. Integrated transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses revealed that PTEN/p53-loss induced activation of oncogenic pathways, including HIPPO-YAP and PI3K signaling, to promote malignant transformation. Targeting the core regulatory circuitries YAP and PI3K signaling effectively inhibited tumor cell growth. Thus, our multicell state in vivo mutagenesis analyses suggests that transit-amplifying states of Olig1/2 intermediate lineage precursors are predisposed to PTEN/p53-loss-induced transformation and gliomagenesis, pointing to subtype-specific treatment strategies for gliomas with distinct genetic alterations. SIGNIFICANCE Multiple progenitor-state mutagenesis reveal that Olig1/2-expressing intermediate precursors are highly susceptible to PTEN/p53-loss-mediated transformation and impart differential drug sensitivity, indicating tumor-initiating cell states and genetic drivers dictate glioma phenotypes and drug responses.

Peritumoral ADC Values Correlate with the MGMT Methylation Status in Patients with Glioblastoma. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15051384. [PMID: 36900177 PMCID: PMC10000073 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Different results have been reported concerning the relationship of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and the status of methylation as the promoter gene for the enzyme methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) in patients with glioblastomas (GBs). The aim of this study was to investigate if there were correlations between the ADC values of the enhancing tumor and peritumoral areas of GBs and the MGMT methylation status. In this retrospective study, we included 42 patients with newly diagnosed unilocular GB with one MRI study prior to any treatment and histopathological data. After co-registration of ADC maps with T1-weighted sequences after contrast administration and dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) perfusion, we manually selected one region-of-interest (ROI) in the enhancing and perfused tumor and one ROI in the peritumoral white matter. Both ROIs were mirrored in the healthy hemisphere for normalization. In the peritumoral white matter, absolute and normalized ADC values were significantly higher in patients with MGMT-unmethylated tumors, as compared to patients with MGMT-methylated tumors (absolute values p = 0.002, normalized p = 0.0007). There were no significant differences in the enhancing tumor parts. The ADC values in the peritumoral region correlated with MGMT methylation status, confirmed by normalized ADC values. In contrast to other studies, we could not find a correlation between the ADC values or the normalized ADC values and the MGMT methylation status in the enhancing tumor parts.

Abstract
Diffuse infiltrating low-grade glioma (LGG) is classified as WHO grade 2 astrocytoma with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation and oligodendroglioma with IDH1 mutation and 1p/19q codeletion. Despite their better prognosis compared with glioblastoma, LGGs invariably recur, leading to disability and premature death. There is an unmet need to discover new therapeutics for LGG, which necessitates preclinical models that closely resemble the human disease. Basic scientific efforts in the field of neuro-oncology are mostly focused on high-grade glioma, due to the ease of maintaining rapidly growing cell cultures and highly reproducible murine tumors. Development of preclinical models of LGG, on the other hand, has been difficult due to the slow-growing nature of these tumors as well as challenges involved in recapitulating the widespread genomic and epigenomic effects of IDH mutation. The most recent WHO classification of CNS tumors emphasizes the importance of the role of IDH mutation in the classification of gliomas, yet there are relatively few IDH-mutant preclinical models available. Here, we review the in vitro and in vivo preclinical models of LGG and discuss the mechanistic challenges involved in generating such models and potential strategies to overcome these hurdles.

Luo W, Quan Q, Jiang J, Peng R. An immune and epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related risk model and immunotherapy strategy for grade II and III gliomas. Front Genet 2023; 13:1070630. [PMID: 36778912 PMCID: PMC9909968 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.1070630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Grade II and III gliomas are heterogeneous and aggressive diseases. More efficient prognosis models and treatment methods are needed. This study aims to construct a new risk model and propose a new strategy for grade II and III gliomas. The data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), and the EMTome website for analysis. The Human Cell Landscape website and the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer website were used for single-cell analysis and drug susceptibility analysis. Gene set enrichment analysis, gene function enrichment analysis, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, Pearson's correlation analysis, log-rank test, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and ROC analysis were performed. We constructed an immune-related prognostic model associated with the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation status. By analyzing the immune microenvironment of patients with different risk scores, we found that high-risk patients were more likely to have an inflammatory immune microenvironment and a higher programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression level. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related gene sets were significantly enriched in the high-risk group, and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype was associated with a decrease in CD8+ T cells and an increase in M2 macrophages. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling was the most important signaling in inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and TGFB1/TGFBR1 was correlated with an increase in CD8+ T cytopenia and M2 macrophages. Survival analysis showed that simultaneous low expression of TGFBR1 and PD-L1 had better survival results. Through single-cell analysis, we found that TGFB1 is closely related to microglia and macrophages, especially M2 macrophages. Finally, we discussed the sensitivity of TGFB1 inhibitors in gliomas using cell line susceptibility data. These results demonstrated a potential immunotherapy strategy in combination with the TGFB1/TGFBR1 inhibitor and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor for grade II and III gliomas.

In Vivo 2-Hydroxyglutarate Monitoring With Edited MR Spectroscopy for the Follow-up of IDH-Mutant Diffuse Gliomas: The IDASPE Prospective Study. Neurology 2023; 100:e94-e106. [PMID: 36180241 PMCID: PMC9827125 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000201137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2021] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES D-2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) characterizes IDH-mutant gliomas and can be detected and quantified with edited MRS (MEGA-PRESS). In this study, we investigated the clinical, radiologic, and molecular parameters affecting 2HG levels. METHODS MEGA-PRESS data were acquired in 71 patients with glioma (24 untreated, 47 treated) on a 3 T system. Eighteen patients were followed during cytotoxic (n = 12) or targeted (n = 6) therapy. 2HG was measured in tumor samples using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GCMS). RESULTS MEGA-PRESS detected 2HG with a sensitivity of 95% in untreated patients and 62% in treated patients. Sensitivity depended on tumor volume (>27 cm3; p = 0.02), voxel coverage (>75%; p = 0.002), and expansive presentation (defined by equal size of T1 and FLAIR abnormalities, p = 0.04). 2HG levels were positively correlated with IDH-mutant allelic fraction (p = 0.03) and total choline levels (p < 0.001) and were higher in IDH2-mutant compared with IDH1 R132H-mutant and non-R132H IDH1-mutant patients (p = 0.002). In patients receiving IDH inhibitors, 2HG levels decreased within a few days, demonstrating the on-target effect of the drug, but 2HG level decrease did not predict tumor response. Patients receiving cytotoxic treatments showed a slower decrease in 2HG levels, consistent with tumor response and occurring before any tumor volume change on conventional MRI. At progression, 1p/19q codeleted gliomas, but not the non-codeleted, showed detectable in vivo 2HG levels, pointing out to different modes of progression characterizing these 2 entities. DISCUSSION MEGA-PRESS edited MRS allows in vivo monitoring of 2-hydroxyglutarate, confirming efficacy of IDH inhibition and suggests different patterns of tumor progression in astrocytomas compared with oligodendrogliomas.

Abstract
The NCCN Guidelines for Central Nervous System (CNS) Cancers focus on management of the following adult CNS cancers: glioma (WHO grade 1, WHO grade 2-3 oligodendroglioma [1p19q codeleted, IDH-mutant], WHO grade 2-4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma, WHO grade 4 glioblastoma), intracranial and spinal ependymomas, medulloblastoma, limited and extensive brain metastases, leptomeningeal metastases, non-AIDS-related primary CNS lymphomas, metastatic spine tumors, meningiomas, and primary spinal cord tumors. The information contained in the algorithms and principles of management sections in the NCCN Guidelines for CNS Cancers are designed to help clinicians navigate through the complex management of patients with CNS tumors. Several important principles guide surgical management and treatment with radiotherapy and systemic therapy for adults with brain tumors. The NCCN CNS Cancers Panel meets at least annually to review comments from reviewers within their institutions, examine relevant new data from publications and abstracts, and reevaluate and update their recommendations. These NCCN Guidelines Insights summarize the panel's most recent recommendations regarding molecular profiling of gliomas.

Abstract
AbstractSince the introduction of integrated histological and molecular diagnoses by the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Nervous System, an increasing number of molecular markers have been found to have prognostic significance in infiltrating gliomas, many of which have now become incorporated as diagnostic criteria in the 2021 WHO Classification. This has increased the applicability of targeted-next generation sequencing in the diagnostic work-up of neuropathology specimens and in addition, raises the question of whether targeted sequencing can, in practice, reliably replace older, more traditional diagnostic methods such as immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in-situ hybridization. Here, we demonstrate that the Oncomine Cancer Gene Mutation Panel v2 assay targeted-next generation sequencing panel for solid tumors is not only superior to IHC in detecting mutation in IDH1/2 and TP53 but can also predict 1p/19q co-deletion with high sensitivity and specificity relative to fluorescence in-situ hybridization by looking at average copy number of genes sequenced on 1p, 1q, 19p, and 19q. Along with detecting the same molecular data obtained from older methods, targeted-next generation sequencing with an RNA sequencing component provides additional information regarding the presence of RNA based alterations that have diagnostic significance and possible therapeutic implications. From this work, we advocate for expanded use of targeted-next generation sequencing over more traditional methods for the detection of important molecular alterations as a part of the standard diagnostic work up for CNS neoplasms.

Prognostic impact of IDH mutations in chondrosarcoma. J Orthop Sci 2022; 27:1315-1322. [PMID: 34531086 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2021.07.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2021] [Revised: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) in chondrosarcoma produces the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) and contributes to malignant progression, and is therefore a potential therapeutic target for chondrosarcoma. Robust historical control data are important in clinical trials of rare cancers such as chondrosarcoma in order to show a clear benefit of new drugs. However, it remains controversial whether IDH mutation status is associated with the clinical outcome of chondrosarcoma, and this hinders the development of mutant IDH inhibitors in clinical trials.background METHODS: We investigated the relationship between IDH gene status and clinicopathological data in 38 chondrosarcoma patients from whom frozen tumor samples were obtained at the time of biopsy or surgery. Targeted next-generation sequencing was also performed to compare genetic alterations between patients with and without IDH mutations. METHODS RESULTS The results revealed 15 cases (40%) of heterozygous IDH1 mutations and five cases (13%) of IDH2 mutations. IDH-mutant chondrosarcoma was associated with worse overall survival than IDH-wild-type chondrosarcoma (IDH1/2 Mut vs. IDH Wt, P = 0.006; IDH1 Mut vs. IDH Wt, P = 0.030; IDH2 Mut vs. IDH Wt, P < 0.0001). IDH mutation was also a significant poor prognostic factor both in univariate (P = 0.026) and multivariate (P = 0.048) analyses. Targeted next-generation sequencing revealed that characteristic mutations in chondrosarcoma, including TP53 and COL2A1, were more common in the IDH-mutant group than in the IDH-wild-type group.results CONCLUSION: This study is the first to report in detail the characteristics and clinical courses of IDH-mutant chondrosarcoma patients in Japan. Our data suggested that IDH-mutant chondrosarcomas might have a worse prognosis than that of IDH-wild-type chondrosarcoma, possibly through the more aggressive characters after metastasis. This information will be useful for designing clinical trials of mutant IDH inhibitors for treatment of advanced chondrosarcoma.

Atypical cartilage in type II germ cell tumors of the mediastinum show significantly different patterns of IDH1/2 mutations from conventional chondrosarcoma. Mod Pathol 2022; 35:1636-1643. [PMID: 35660795 DOI: 10.1038/s41379-022-01106-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2022] [Revised: 05/01/2022] [Accepted: 05/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Neoplastic cartilage is a common component of teratomas in type II germ cell tumors. Although IDH1/2 mutations have been well-described in somatic cartilaginous tumors, ranging from benign enchondromas to highly aggressive dedifferentiated chondrosarcomas, the presence of IDH1/2 mutations in cartilaginous neoplasms arising from germ cell tumors has not been previously investigated. To better understand the relationship between these tumors and their bone/soft tissue counterpart, we studied the IDH1/2 mutational status of 20 cases of primary mediastinal mixed germ cell tumors with areas of readily identifiable cartilaginous differentiation. Our study found that cartilaginous lesions arising in germ cell tumors have a different frequency and distribution of IDH1/2 mutations compared to those at somatic sites. We identified IDH1/2 mutations in only 15% (3/20) of cases, compared to a frequency in the literature among differentiated chondroid tumors of bone and soft tissue of 54%, a highly significant decreased frequency (p = 0.0011; chi-square test). Furthermore, they were exclusively IDH2 R172 mutations that occurred at a non-significant, increased frequency in the germ cell tumor group compared to conventional chondrosarcoma (15% vs. 5%, respectively, p > 0.05, chi-square test). The unexpected finding, therefore, was entirely attributable to the absence of IDH1 R132 mutation in chondroid neoplasia of germ cell origin (p < 0.00001, Fisher exact test). Our results suggest that a subset of cartilaginous lesions arising within type II germ cell tumors have a similar oncogenic mechanism to their bone/soft tissue counterpart but that the majority form using different oncogenic mechanisms compared to their somatic counterparts.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232113034. [PMID: 36361838 PMCID: PMC9654114 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232113034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 10/15/2022] [Accepted: 10/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
A single-institution observational study with 43 newly diagnosed diffuse gliomas defined the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1/2) gene mutation status and evaluated the prognostic relevance of the methylation status of the epigenetic marker O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT). Younger patients (<50 years) with surgically resected glioma and temozolomide (TMZ) adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with better prognosis, consistent with other studies. The methylation status depends on the chosen method and the cut-off value determination. Methylation-specific PCR (MSP) established the methylation status for 36 glioma patients (19 (52.8%) positively methylated and 17 (47.2%) unmethylated) without relevancy for the overall survival (OS) (p = 0.33). On the other side, real-time methylation-specific PCR (qMSP) revealed 23 tumor samples (54%) that were positively methylated without association with OS (p = 0.15). A combined MSP analysis, which included the homogenous cohort of 24 patients (>50 years with surgical resection and IDH1/2-wildtype diffuse glioma), distinguished 10 (41.6%) methylated samples from 14 (58.4%) unmethylated samples. Finally, significant correlation between OS and methylation status was noticed (p ≈ 0.05). The OS of the hypermethylated group was 9.6 ± 1.77 months, whereas the OS of the unmethylated group was 5.43 ± 1.04 months. Our study recognized the MGMT promoter methylation status as a positive prognostic factor within the described homogenous cohort, although further verification in a larger population of diffuse gliomas is required.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM), a deadly brain tumor, is still one of a few lasting challenges of contemporary oncology. Current therapies fail to significantly improve patient survival due to GBM tremendous genetic, transcriptomic, immunological, and sex-dependent heterogeneity. Over the years, clinical differences between males and females were characterized. For instance, higher incidence of GBM in males or distinct responses to cancer chemotherapy and immunotherapy between males and females have been noted. Despite the introduction of single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, these differences were not further investigated as studies were focused only on revealing the general picture of GBM heterogeneity. Hence, in this mini-review, we summarized the current state of knowledge on GBM heterogeneity revealed by single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics with regard to genetics, immunology, and sex-dependent differences. Additionally, we highlighted future research directions which would fill the gap of knowledge on the impact of patient's sex on the disease outcome.

Altered Extracellular Matrix as an Alternative Risk Factor for Epileptogenicity in Brain Tumors. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10102475. [PMID: 36289737 PMCID: PMC9599244 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10102475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Revised: 09/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Seizures are one of the most common symptoms of brain tumors. The incidence of seizures differs among brain tumor type, grade, location and size, but paediatric-type diffuse low-grade gliomas/glioneuronal tumors are often highly epileptogenic. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is known to play a role in epileptogenesis and tumorigenesis because it is involved in the (re)modelling of neuronal connections and cell-cell signaling. In this review, we discuss the epileptogenicity of brain tumors with a focus on tumor type, location, genetics and the role of the extracellular matrix. In addition to functional problems, epileptogenic tumors can lead to increased morbidity and mortality, stigmatization and life-long care. The health advantages can be major if the epileptogenic properties of brain tumors are better understood. Surgical resection is the most common treatment of epilepsy-associated tumors, but post-surgery seizure-freedom is not always achieved. Therefore, we also discuss potential novel therapies aiming to restore ECM function.
