Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutant R132H, promoting the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D2HG), is a driver mutation and an emerging therapeutic target in glioma. This study identified a novel mutant IDH1 inhibitor, WM17, by virtual screening and enzymatic confirmation. It could bind to and increase mutant IDH1 protein's thermostability in both endogenous heterozygous cells and exogenous overexpressed cells. Consequently, WM17 reversed the accumulation of D2HG and histone hypermethylation in IDH1 mutated cells. Finally, we concluded that WM17 significantly inhibited cell migration in IDH1 mutated glioma cells, although it has no apparent effect on cell proliferation. Further studies are guaranteed toward the development of WM17 as a therapeutic agent for IDH1 mutated glioma.

Malignant gliomas are heterogeneous tumors, mostly incurable, arising in the central nervous system (CNS) driven by genetic, epigenetic, and metabolic aberrations. Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1/2) enzymes are predominantly found in low-grade gliomas and secondary high-grade gliomas, with IDH1 mutations being more prevalent. Mutant-IDH1/2 confers a gain-of-function activity that favors the conversion of a-ketoglutarate (α-KG) to the oncometabolite 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), resulting in an aberrant hypermethylation phenotype.

RNF7 (Ring Finger Protein 7) is a key component of CRLs (Cullin-RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligases) and has been found to possess intrinsic anti-ROS capabilities. Aberrant expression of RNF7 has been observed in various tumor types and is known to significantly influence tumor initiation and progression. However, the specific role of RNF7 in glioblastoma remains unclear.

Purpose: Biliary tract cancers (BTCs) include intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC), and gallbladder cancers. BTCs have a number of genomic alterations, including isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 () mutations, fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 () rearrangements, and amplifications. Therapies targeting these alterations have shown clinical benefit in patients with BTCs in the United States.

Molecular profiles can predict which patients will respond to current standard treatment and new targeted therapy regimens. Using data from a highly diverse population of approximately three million in Southeast London and Kent, this study aims to evaluate the prevalence of IDH1 mutation and MGMT promoter methylation in the gliomas diagnosed in adult patients and to explore correlations with patients' demographic and clinicopathological characteristics. Anonymised data on 749 adult patients diagnosed with a glioma in 2015-2019 at King's College Hospital were extracted.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a WHO grade 4 glioma, is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor, characterized by rapid progression and poor prognosis. The heterogeneity of GBM complicates diagnosis and treatment, driving research into molecular biomarkers that can offer insights into tumor behavior and guide personalized therapies. This review explores recent advances in molecular biomarkers, highlighting their potential to improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes in GBM patients.
