67 patients aged 70 years or younger, operated between January 2013 and December 2015, with newly diagnosed IDH wild-type GBM and clinical follow-up were retrospectively investigated in this study.
U87 human GBM cells were treated with the IC50 concentration of various agents used in the treatment of GBM, including alkylating agents (temozolomide, carmustine, lomustine, procarbazine), inhibitor of topoisomerase I (irinotecan), vascular endothelial and epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (cediranib and erlotinib, respectively) anti-metabolite (5-fluorouracil), microtubule inhibitor (vincristine), and metabolic agents (dichloroacetate and IDH1 inhibitor ivosidenib).
Continuous administration of DS-1001b impaired tumor growth and decreased 2-HG levels in subcutaneous and intracranial xenograft models derived from a glioblastoma patient with IDH1 mutation.
In application to the glioblastoma dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas, MHN proposed a novel interaction in line with consecutive biopsies: IDH1 mutations are early events that promote subsequent fixation of TP53 mutations.
Anaplastic astrocytoma, IDH-wildtype (AA-IDHwt) was the common molecular subgroup (52.8%), followed by diffuse astrocytoma, IDH-wildtype (DA-IDHwt) and AA, IDH-mutant (AA-IDHmt) (each 16.9%), DA-IDHmt (7.9%), glioblastoma (GBM)-IDHwt (3.3%) and GBM-IDHmt (2.2%).
We sought to characterize mRNA and protein content of EV subpopulations released by human glioblastoma (GBM) cells expressing a mutant form of epidermal growth factor receptor (U87<sup>EGFRvIII</sup>) <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> with respect to size, morphology and the presence of tumour cargo.
IDH1 mutations are closely related to the development and progression of various human cancers, such as glioblastoma, sarcoma, and acute myeloid leukemia.
U87 human GBM cells were treated with the IC50 concentration of various agents used in the treatment of GBM, including alkylating agents (temozolomide, carmustine, lomustine, procarbazine), inhibitor of topoisomerase I (irinotecan), vascular endothelial and epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (cediranib and erlotinib, respectively) anti-metabolite (5-fluorouracil), microtubule inhibitor (vincristine), and metabolic agents (dichloroacetate and IDH1 inhibitor ivosidenib).
EGFR-amplified GBMs displayed both a higher number of concrete CNAs and a higher global tumor mutational burden than their no EGFR-amplified counterparts.
Through double-immunohistochemical staining for platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), this study explored the intercase variability among 45 human GBM samples regarding density of GFAP+ peritumoral astrocytes and a subset of GFAP+ peritumoral astrocyte-like cells also expressing PDGFRα.
In addition to its benefits for molecular subgrouping and copy number analysis of brain tumors, DNA-methylation based classification is a highly reliable tool for the assessment of MGMT promoter methylation status in glioblastoma patients.
Anaplastic astrocytoma, IDH-wildtype (AA-IDHwt) was the common molecular subgroup (52.8%), followed by diffuse astrocytoma, IDH-wildtype (DA-IDHwt) and AA, IDH-mutant (AA-IDHmt) (each 16.9%), DA-IDHmt (7.9%), glioblastoma (GBM)-IDHwt (3.3%) and GBM-IDHmt (2.2%).
Some of these genetic alterations are currently believed to have clinical significance and are more related to secondary GBMs: TP53 mutations, detectable in the early stages of secondary GBM (found in 65%), isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 mutations (50% of secondary GBMs), and also O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter methylation (75% of secondary GBMs).
The CpG methylation status of the MGMT promoter strongly correlates with clinical outcome and, therefore, is used as prognostic marker during glioblastoma therapy.
CD133 has reproducibly been shown to correlate with disease progression, recurrence, and poor overall survivorship in the malignant adult brain tumor, glioblastoma (GBM).
