Detection of "Oncometabolite" 2-hydroxyglutarate by Magnetic Resonance Analysis as a Biomarker of IDH1/2 Mutations in Glioma

TL;DR: It is reported that 2HG can be precisely detected by magnetic resonance (MR) in human glioma specimens and used as a reliable biomarker to identify this subset of tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glioma progression is shaped by genetic evolution and microenvironment interactions

Frederick S. Varn, +97 more

TL;DR: In this paper , RNA and/or DNA sequencing data from the temporally separated tumor pairs of 304 adult patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-wild-type and IDH-mutant glioma were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokines and tumors of the central nervous system.

TL;DR: A variety of cytokines are expressed during CNS neoplasia; their potential involvement in tumor growth through a variety of mechanisms, such as autocrine or paracrine growth stimulation, angiogenesis, and immune surveillance evasion, are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

PIKE (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase enhancer)-A GTPase stimulates Akt activity and mediates cellular invasion.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PIKE-A is a physiologic regulator of Akt and an oncogenic effector of cell invasion, whereas dominant-negative PIke-A and PIK-A knockdown markedly inhibit these processes.
