High EZH2 Protein Expression Is a Poor Prognostic Predictor in IDH1 R132H-Negative Gliomas.

Accumulating data indicates that enhancer of zeste homology 2 (EZH2) and isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) are implicated in promoting tumourigenesis in a myriad of malignancies including gliomas. We aimed to determine the immunoexpression of EZH2 in gliomas and its correlation with clinicopathological variables. The prognostic value of the combined immunoexpression of EZH2 and IDH1 was further explored in a retrospective analysis involving 56 patients with histologically confirmed gliomas in Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre from 2010 to 2016.
