K19<sup>+</sup> HCC had TERT promoter mutations less frequently than K19<sup>-</sup> HCC (31% versus 59%; P = 0.022), and lacked alterations in KRAS and IDH1.
Hepatocellular carcinoma and choangiocarcinoma display heterogeneity at both morphologic and molecular levels Cholangiocellular carcinoma is most commonly associated with IDH 1/2 mutations.
Rat liver and hepatoma AS-30D cytosolic fractions exhibited greater Vmax for IDH-1 than for Glc6PDH and 6PGDH whereas human cancer cells and platelets showed greater Vmax for Glc6PDH than for 6PGDH and IDH-1.
Our negative results, together with some previous reports of the absence of IDH1 p.R132 mutations in HCC tissues, suggests that IDH1 p.R132 mutations are not actively involved in the development of HCC.
In this study, 17 SNPs in seven genes encoding three TCA cycle enzyme families (SDH, FH, and IDH) were genotyped in 492 HCC patients with surgical treatment and their association with overall survival (OS) was analyzed.
