LC-MS and in situ mass spectrometric imaging by LESA-nano ESI-FTICR revealed high levels of the proposed oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG), the product of enzymatic conversion of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) by IDH1-R132H, in the tumor but not in surrounding brain parenchyma.
Three GBM-O samples had IDH1 (p.R132H) mutations; two of these also demonstrated 1p/19q co-deletion and had a proneural transcriptional profile, a molecular signature characteristic of oligodendroglioma.
The R132H mutation in IDH1 was found in 60.5% (23/38) of patients in the AA cohort (Groups 2 and 4) and 20.0% (13/65) of patients from our GBM cohort (Groups 3 and 5), whereas all patients with ODG (Group 1) had a mutation either in IDH1 (n = 62) or IDH2 (n = 3).
We report somatic heterozygous mutations in IDH1 (c.394C>T encoding an R132C substitution and c.395G>A encoding an R132H substitution) or IDH2 (c.516G>C encoding R172S) in 87% of enchondromas (benign cartilage tumors) and in 70% of spindle cell hemangiomas (benign vascular lesions).
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) gene mutations, primarily of the R132H type, occur in approximately 60 - 90% of diffuse and anaplastic gliomas and secondary glioblastomas.
We found that the distribution of IDH1(R132H) , IDH1(nonR132H) , and IDH2 mutations differed between astrocytic, mixed, and oligodendroglial tumors, with an overrepresentation of IDH2 mutations in oligodendroglial phenotype and an overrepresentation of IDH1(nonR132H) in astrocytic tumors.
In the large majority (>80%) of tumors IDH mutations, both IDH1-R132H and the non-canonical ones, were present in the large majority (>80%) of neoplastic cells.
Our study provides direct evidence that the improved survival in patients with IDH1-R132Htumors may partly result from the effects of the IDH1-R132H protein on chemosensitivity.
Median PFS for patients with IDH-mutant 1p19q-codeleted, IDH-mutant 1p19q-intact, and IDH1-R132H-wildtype tumors were 113 months, 56 months, and not reached, respectively.
The tumor samples were histologically reviewed and subsequently assessed for p53 and survivin expression and the presence of the IDH R132H mutation by immunohistochemistry. p53 expression levels and survivin subcellular localization patterns were correlated with histological classification and clinical outcome.
Overexpression of IDH1(R132H) and IDH2(R172K) mutant protein in glioblastoma cells resulted in increased radiation sensitivity and altered ROS metabolism and suppression of growth and migration in vitro.
IDH1(R132H) mutation was analysed by immunohistochemistry with the mutation-specific IDH1(R132H) antibody in 1011 patients, including 922 central nervous system (CNS) tumours and 89 non-neoplastic CNS lesions, and PCR-based direct sequencing of IDH1/2 gene mutation in 570 of these samples.
Although no single variant showed an association which was statistically significant at the genome-wide threshold a number represented promising associations - BRCA2:c.9976A>T, p.(Lys3326Ter), which has been shown to influence breast and lung cancer risk (odds ratio (OR)=2.3, P=4.00 × 10(-4) for glioblastoma (GBM)) and IDH2:c.782G>A, p.(Arg261His) (OR=3.21, P=7.67 × 10(-3), for non-GBM).

We identified a small cohort of WHO grade II-III astrocytomas that harbored the IDH1 R132H mutation, as confirmed by both immunohistochemistry and molecular sequence analysis, which nonetheless had unexpectedly rapid recurrence and subsequent progression to glioblastoma.
