Abstract
We performed the next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis of a rare grade 1 brain meningioma (angiomatous type) and a common grade 1 spinal meningioma (psammomatous type) and compared their mutation profiling. The data were analysed using the Ion Reporter 5.16 programme (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). Sequencing analysis identified 10 novel variants and two previously reported variants that were common between these two tumours. Nine variants were missense, which included an insertion in EGFR c.1819_1820insCA, causing frameshifting, and a single nucleotide deletion in HRAS and HNF1A genes, causing frameshifting in these genes. These were common variants identified for both tumours. Also, 10 synonymous variants and 10 intronic variants were common between these two tumours. In intronic variants, two were splice site_5' variants (acceptor site variants). Typical of the angiomatous type tumour, there were 11 novel and six previously reported variants that were not found in the psammomatous tumour; three variants were synonymous, 11 were missense mutations, and three were deletions causing frameshifting. The deletion variants were in the SMARCB1, CDH1, and KDR genes. In contrast, eight novel and five previously reported variants were found in the psammomatous meningioma tumour. In this tumour, two variants were synonymous: a deletion causing a frameshifting in [(c.3920delT; p. (Ile1307fs)], and a two-base pair insertion and deletion (INDEL) [(c.3986_3987delACinsGT; p. (His1329Arg)] both in the APC gene were also found. Among our findings, we have identified that ALK, VHL, CTNNB1, EGFR, ERBB4, PDGFRA, KDR, SMO, ABL1, HRAS, ATM, HNF1A, FLT3, and RB1 mutations are common for psammomatous meningioma and angiomatous tumours. Variants typical for angiomatous (brain) meningioma are PIK3CA, KIT, PTPN11, CDH1, SMAD4, and SMARCB1; the variants typical for psammomatous meningioma are APC, FGFR2, HNF1A, STK11, and JAK3. The RET splice variant (c.1880-2A>C) found in both meningioma tumours is reported (rs193922699) as likely pathogenic in the Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Database (dbSNP). All missense variants detected in these two meningiomas are found in the cancer-driver genes. The eight variants we found in genes such as EGFR, PDGFRA, SMO, FLT3, PIK3CA, PTPN11, CDH1, and RB1 are glioma-driver genes. We did not find any mutations in genes such as BRAF, IDH1, CDKN2A, PTEN, and TP53, which are also listed as cancer-driver genes in gliomas. Mutation profiling utilising NGS technology in meningiomas could help in the accurate diagnosis and classification of these tumours and also in developing more effective treatments.

Supratentorial Sporadic Hemangioblastoma: A Case Report With Mutation Profiling Using Next-Generation DNA Sequencing. Cureus 2023; 15:e39818. [PMID: 37273678 PMCID: PMC10233511 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.39818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to determine genomic changes in sporadic intracranial hemangioblastoma (HBL), and the mutation patterns were analyzed using next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS). In this NGS analysis of the HBL tumor, 67 variants of 41 genes were identified. Of these, 64 were single-nucleotide variants (SNVs), two were exonic insertions and deletions (INDEL), and one was an intronic INDEL. In total, 15 were missense exonic variants, including an insertion variant in the NRAS gene, c.1_2insA, and a deletion variant, c.745delT, in the HNF1A gene, both of these mutations produced a termination codon. Other exonic missense variants found in the tumor were CTNNB1, FGFR3, KDR, SMO, HRAS, RAI1, and a TP53 variant (c.430C>G). Moreover, the results of the present study revealed a novel variant, c.430C>G, in TP53 and two missense variants of SND1 (c.1810G>C and c.1814G>C), which were also novel. ALK (rs760315884) and FGFR2 (rs1042522) missense variants were reported previously. Notably, a total of 10 previously reported single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found in this tumor in genes including MLH1 (rs769364808), FGFR3 (rs769364808), two variants (rs1873778 and rs2228230) in PDGFRA, KIT (rs55986963), APC (rs41115), and RET (rs1800861). The results of this study revealed a synonymous mutation (SNP) in c.1104 G>T; p. (Ser368Ser) in the MLH1 gene. In this amino acid (AA) codon, two other variants are also known to cause missense substitutions, c.1103C>G; p. (Ser368Trp); COSM6986674) and c.1103C>T; p.(Ser368Leu; COSM3915870), were found in hematopoietic and urinary tract tissue, respectively. However, three SNPs found in genes such as ALK, KDR, and ABL1 in the HBL tumor in this study were not reported in UCSC, COSMIC, and ClinVar databases. Additionally, 19 intronic variants were identified in this tumor. One intronic SNV was present in each of the following genes: EGFR, ERBB4, KDR, SMO, CDKN2B, PTEN, PTPN11, RB1, AKT1, and ERBB2. In PIK3CA and FBXL18 genes, two intronic variants were present, and in the SND1 gene, three intronic variants were detected in the HBL tumor presented in this study. Notably, only one of these was reported in the catalog of somatic mutations in cancer. Only one 3'-untranslated region (UTR) insertion variant in the NRAS gene (c.*2010T>AT) was detected in the tumor of the present study, and this was a splice site acceptor. A TP53 intronic mutation (c.782+1G>T) was the only pathogenic splice_donor_variant found in this HBL tumor. The frequency of variants and Phred scores were markedly high, and the p-values were significant for all of the aforementioned mutations. In summary, a total of 15 missense, 10 synonymous, and 19 intronic variants were identified in the HBL tumor. Results of the present study detected one novel insertion in NRAS and one novel deletion in HNF1A genes, a novel missense variant in the TP53 gene, and two novel missense variants of SND1. Hotspot mutations in other cancer driver genes, such as PTEN, ATM, SMAD4, SMARCB1, STK11, NPM1, CDKN2A, and EGFR, which are frequently affected in gliomas, were not found in the tumor of the present study. Future studies should aim to validate oncogenic mutations that may act as novel targets for the treatment of these tumors.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the commonest primary malignant cerebral tumor in adults. Detection of genetic mutations in liquid biopsy is endorsed rapidly throughout several solid neoplasms but still limited in GBM. Our study provides insight for the genetic alterations in liquid biopsy of the newly diagnosed GBM patients using next generation sequencing technology together with identification of the microsatellite instability (MSI) status in those patients.
Results
Eighteen variants detected in 15 genes which were (4, 12 and 2) missense, coding silent and intronic mutations, respectively. The 4 substitution–missense mutations were as follows: Drug responsive TP53 (p.Pro72Arg) variant was detected in 6 patients (85.7%). KDR (p.Gln472His) variant was noted in 4 patients (57.1%) as a result of substitution at c.1416A > T. Two patients revealed KIT (p.Met541Leu) variant which result from substitution at c.1621A > C. Only one patient showed mutation in JAK3 gene which was (p.Val718Leu) variant resulting from c.2152G > C substitution. Regarding MSI status, four cases (57.1%) were MSI-Low and three cases (42.9%) were MSI-High.
Conclusions
This study identifies the molecular landscape and microsatellite instability alternations in Egyptian brain tumor patients, which may have an important role in improving the outcome, survival and may help in evolving a characteristic individual therapy.

EGFRvIII expression and isocitrate dehydrogenase mutations in patients with glioma. Oncol Lett 2020; 20:384. [PMID: 33193845 PMCID: PMC7656109 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2020.12247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2020] [Accepted: 10/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Molecular pathology and personalized medicine are still being evolved in Saudi Arabia, and genetic testing for the detection of mutations as cancer markers have not been established in the diagnostics laboratories in Saudi Arabia. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1 and IDH2) mutations and epidermal growth factor receptor variant (EGFRv)III transcript expression in Saudi Arabian patients with glioma. Out of 117 brain tumors tested by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR for EGFRvIII, 41 cases tested positive. In the glioblastoma (GBM) category, 28/55 tumors were positive, in astrocytoma tumors 5/22, and in oligodendrogliomas 4/13 cases were positive respectively. EGFRvIII transcript was sequenced by capillary electrophoresis to demonstrate the presence of EGFRvIII-specific junction where exons 2–7 were deleted. In the present study 106 tumors were sequenced for IDH1 exon-4 mutations using the capillary sequencing method. The most common substitution missense mutation c.395G>A was found in 16 tumors. In the case of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma, a novel missense mutation in c.472C>T was detected in IDH2 gene. Using next-generation sequencing (NGS), 74 tumors were sequenced for the IDH1 gene, and a total of 8 missense variants were identified in 36 tumors in a population of Saudi Arabia. The missense mutation (c.395G>A) was detected in 29/36 of tumors. A novel intronic mutation in c.414+9T>A was found in 13 cases in the IDH1 gene. In addition, one case exhibited a novel synonymous mutation in c.369A>G. Eleven tumors were found to have compound mutations in the IDH1 gene. In IDH2 gene, out of a total of 16 variants found in 6 out of 45 tumors, nine were missense, five were synonymous and one was intronic. This is the first report from Saudi Arabian laboratories analyzing glioma tumors for EGFRvIII expression, and the first study from Saudi Arabia to analyze IDH mutations in gliomas using the capillary and NGS methods.
