ABSTRACT
Anaplastic oligodendroglioma (AO) are rare primary brain tumours that generally incurable, with heterogeneous prognosis and few treatment targets identified. Most oligodendrogliomas have chromosomes 1p/19q co-deletion an IDH mutation. Here we analysed 51 AO by whole-exome sequencing, identifying previously reported frequent somatic mutations in CIC FUBP1. We also identified recurrent TCF12 additional series of 83 AO. Overall, 7.5% mutated for TCF12, which encodes oligodendrocyte-related transcription factor. Eighty percent were either the bHLH domain, is important function as a factor, or frameshift leading to truncated this domain. show these compromise transcriptional activity associated more aggressive tumour type. Our analysis provides further insights into unique shared pathways driving
