Gliomas are the most common and malignant intracranial tumors in adults. Recent studies have revealed significance of functional genomics for glioma pathophysiological treatments. However, access to comprehensive genomic data analytical platforms is often limited. Here, we developed Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA), a user-friendly portal storage interactive exploration cross-omics data, including nearly 2000 primary recurrent samples from cohort. Currently, open provided whole-exome...
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation, associated with cancer initiation and progression, is dynamically regulated by the m6A methylation regulators ("writers", "erasers" "readers"). Here, we demonstrate that most of thirteen main are differentially expressed among gliomas stratified different clinicopathological features in 904 gliomas.

Abstract Lipid metabolism reprogramming plays important role in cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis and invasion cancers. However, the diverse lipid programmes prognostic value during glioma progression remain unclear.

Gene ontology (GO) gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) found that glioblastoma (GBM) mainly exhibited of glycosphingolipid metabolic...
Abstract Due to the rare incidence of spinal cord astrocytomas, their molecular features remain unclear. Here, we characterized landscapes mutations in H3 K27M, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 ( IDH1 ) R132H, BRAF V600E, and TERT promoter 83 diffuse astrocytic tumors. Among these samples, thirty-five patients had K27M mutation; this mutant could be observed histological grade II (40%), III IV (20%) astrocytomas. were absent 58 cases tested. The V600E mutation (7/57) was only H3-wildtype...
Abstract Gliomas are the most common and malignant intracranial tumours in adults. Recent studies have shown that functional genomics greatly aids understanding of pathophysiology therapy glioma. However, comprehensive genomic data analysis platforms relatively limited. In this study, we developed Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA, http://www.cgga.org.cn ), a user-friendly portal for storage interactive exploration multi-dimensional includes nearly 2,000 primary recurrent glioma samples from...
O6methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation is a biomarker widely used to predict the sensitivity of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma temozolomide therapy. Given that IDH status has critical effects on survival and epigenetic features glioblastoma, we aimed assess role MGMT in IDH-mutant glioblastoma.This study included 187 glioblastomas 173 for comparison. Kaplan-Meier curves multivariate Cox regression were predictive effects.Compared with glioblastomas, showed significantly...
The role of brain immune compartments in glioma evolution remains elusive. We profile cells microenvironment and the matched peripheral blood from 11 patients. Glioblastoma exhibits specific infiltration blood-originated monocytes expressing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligands EREG AREG, coined as tumor-associated (TAMo). TAMo is mutually exclusive with EGFR alterations (p = 0.019), while co-occurring mesenchymal subtype 4.7 × 10−7) marking worse prognosis 0.004 0.032 two...
Abstract The prognosis for diffusely infiltrating gliomas at World Health Organization (WHO) grade 2–4 remains dismal due to their heterogeneity. rapid development of genome-wide molecular-profiling-associated studies has greatly promoted the accuracy glioma classification. Thus, latest version WHO classification central nervous system tumors published in 2021 incorporated more molecular biomarkers together with histological features diagnosis gliomas. Advanced usage pathology clinical...
Abstract H3 K27‐altered diffuse midline glioma is a highly lethal pediatric‐type tumor without efficacious treatments. Recent findings have highlighted the heterogeneity among gliomas with different locations and ages. Compared to tumors located in brain stem thalamus, molecular clinicopathological features of spinal cord are still largely elusive, thus hindering accurate management patients. Here we aimed characterize K27M‐mutant 77 consecutive cases. We found that glioma, median age 35...
Abstract Pre-surgery differential diagnosis is valuable for personalized treatment planning in intramedullary spinal cord tumors. This study assessed the performance of sequencing cell-free DNA (cfDNA) cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) these Prospectively enrolling 45 patients with lesions, including diffuse midline glioma (DMG), H3K27-altered (14/45), glioblastoma (1/45), H3-wildtype-astrocytoma (10/45), ependymoma (11/45), and other lesions (9/45), CSF samples were collected via lumbar puncture...
Abstract 1p/19q codeletion, which leads to the abnormal expression of 1p19q genes in oligodendroglioma, is associated with chemosensitivity and favorable prognosis. Here, we aimed explore clinical implications gene non-codel gliomas. We analyzed 668 gliomas obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (n = 447) Chinese Glioma 221) for training validation, respectively. was significantly correlated clinicopathological features overall survival Then, derived a risk signature 25 selected that not only...
Now, numerous exciting findings have been yielded in the field of energy metabolism within glioma cells. In addition to aerobic glycolysis, multiple catabolic pathways are employed for production.
