Purpose: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is more representative and accurate than biopsy and is also conducive to dynamic monitoring, facilitating accurate diagnosis and prognosis of glioma. Therefore, the present study aimed to establish and validate a novel amplified method for the detection of IDH1 R132H and BRAF V600E, which were associated with the genetic diagnosis of glioma.

Patients And Methods: A dual-signal amplification method based on magnetic aggregation and catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) was constructed for the simultaneous detection of ctDNAs. When target ctDNAs are present, the CHA reaction is initiated and leads to the assembly of Au-Ag nanoshuttles (Au-Ag NSs) onto magnetic beads (MBs). Further enrichment of MBs under an external magnetic field facilitated the dual-signal amplification of SERS.

Results: The limit of detection (LOD) for IDH1 R132H and BRAF V600E in serum was as low as 6.01 aM and 5.48 aM. The reproducibility and selectivity of the proposed SERS analysis platform was satisfactory. Finally, the platform was applied to quantify IDH1 R132H and BRAF V600E in the serum of subcutaneous-tumor‑bearing nude mice, and the results obtained by SERS were consistent with those from quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).

Conclusion: The present study showed that the dual-signal amplification method is a simple and ultrasensitive strategy for gliomas-associated ctDNAs detection, which is crucial for early diagnosis and dynamic monitoring.

Unlabelled: QUESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE PRIOR VERSION OF THESE GUIDELINES WITHOUT CHANGE: TARGET POPULATION: Adult patients (age ≥ 18 years) who have suspected low-grade diffuse glioma.

Question: What are the optimal neuropathological techniques to diagnose low-grade diffuse glioma in the adult?

Recommendation: Level I Histopathological analysis of a representative surgical sample of the lesion should be used to provide the diagnosis of low-grade diffuse glioma. Level III Both frozen section and cytopathologic/smear evaluation should be used to aid the intra-operative assessment of low-grade diffuse glioma diagnosis.

Prognostic value of immunohistochemical staining for H3K27me3 and EZH2 in astrocytoma, IDH-mutant.

Article Synopsis
  • H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3), regulated by EZH2, plays a critical role in gene expression and is a key diagnostic marker for certain brain tumors, but its implications in astrocytoma with IDH mutation are unclear.
  • A study involving 33 patients analyzed the correlation between immunohistochemical markers (including H3K27me3, EZH2) and patient outcomes like overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS).
  • Results indicated that H3K27me3 positivity, particularly when combined with EZH2 positivity, was associated with poorer survival rates, suggesting it may serve as a significant prognostic factor for astrocytoma, IDH

Targeting the mutation in gliomas by CRISPR/Cas precision base editing.

Laboratory of Molecular Neuro-Oncology, Department of Neurology, Clinical Neuroscience Centre, University Hospital and University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.

Background: Gliomas, the most frequent malignant primary brain tumors, lack curative treatments. Understanding glioma-specific molecular alterations is crucial to develop novel therapies. Among them, the biological consequences of the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 gene mutation ( ) remain inconclusive despite its early occurrence and widespread expression.

Mutations in IDH1 and TP53 have a significant impact on glioma prognosis and progression; however, their roles in tumor cell invasion in terms of interactions with particular components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) are still unclear. Using gene editing protocol based on CRISPR-Cas 9 with cytidine deaminase, we introduced point mutations into U87MG glioblastoma cells to establish modified cell lines with heterozygous IDH1 R132H, homozygous TP53 R248Q and heterozygous IDH1 R132H, homozygous TP53 R248Q genotypes. A comparative study of cell migration on major ECM components was carried out by high-content microscopy.

Angiocentric glioma (AG) is a supratentorial diffuse low-grade glioma characterized by the MYB::QKI fusion gene, showing angiocentric growth of monomorphous spindle cells with astrocytic and ependymal immunophenotypes. We describe a rare case of MYB::QKI fusion-positive diffuse cerebellar glioma in a 54-year-old male. The patient initially presented with a T2/FLAIR hyperintense lesion in the left cerebellar hemisphere and slowly progressive neurological symptoms.
