Screen for IDH1, IDH2, IDH3, D2HGDH and L2HGDH mutations in glioblastoma.

Abstract:

Isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) catalyse oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to (Alpha)-ketoglutarate ((Alpha)-KG). IDH1 functions in the cytosol and peroxisomes, whereas IDH2 and IDH3 are both localized in the mitochondria. Heterozygous somatic mutations in IDH1 occur at codon 132 in 70% of grade II-III gliomas and secondary glioblastomas (GBMs), and in 5% of primary GBMs. Mutations in IDH2 at codon 172 are present in grade II-III gliomas at a low frequency. IDH1 and IDH2 mutations caus...
