Gliomas represent 80% of all primary malignant brain tumors in adults. In view of this public health problem, the early detection through sensitive and specific molecular tumor markers analysis can help to improve gliomas diagnosis and prognosis as well as their staging, assessment of therapeutic response and detection of recurrence. Therefore, this review focuses in current gliomas tumor markers, IDH-1/2, 1p/19q, MGMT, ATRX, TERT, H3, EGFR, BRAF and Ki67 used in clinic worldwide and their importance to early detection, glioma histological and molecular classification as well as in predicting patient's therapeutic response.
