| dc.description | Background and aim: Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors, and they are classified according to their histopathological and genetic features. Tumorigenesis depends on alterations in different genes. The aim of this study was to identify mutations in IDH1 and TERT genes in gliomas of Argentine patients and to correlate them with clinical features.
Methods. DNA was isolated from 19 biopsies with different glioma grades matched with blood samples. IDH1 and TERT mutations were identified by PCR amplification and sequencing.
Results. Six out of seven patients with low-grade glioma (grade II) harbor IDH1 mutations, mainly without tumor growth and an overall survival of more than 12 months. Eleven out of twelve patients with high-grade gliomas (grade III/IV) showed wild type IDH1, mainly with tumor growth and shorter survival than low-grade gliomas. Mutated TERT promoter was present in 5 out of 11 high-grade gliomas, showing the prevalence of polymorphic C allele, whereas, low-grade gliomas showed mutated TERT in 1 out of 5 gliomas and a predominance of T allele. TERT and IDH1 mutations were mutually exclusive in most gliomas.
Conclusions: Our results show that genetic tests provided more accurate diagnosis than histopathological analysis. Evolution of gliomas can be predicted primarily by the mutational status of IDH1 and secondarily by other markers, such as TERT mutational status, and the patient´s age. | es-ES |
