Exploiting nanopore sequencing for characterization and grading of IDH-mutant gliomas.

ABSTRACT: The 2021 WHO Classification of Central Nervous System Tumors recommended evaluation of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A/B (CDKN2A/B) deletion in addition to codeletion of 1p/19q to characterize IDH-mutant gliomas. Here, we demonstrated the use of a nanopore-based copy-number variation sequencing (nCNV-seq) approach to simultaneously identify deletions of CDKN2A/B and 1p/19q. The nCNV-seq approach was initially evaluated on three distinct glioma cell lines and then applied to 19 IDH-mutant gliomas (8 astrocytomas and 11 oligodendrogliomas) from patients. The whole-arm 1p/19q codeletion was detected in all oligodendrogliomas with high concordance among nCNV-seq, FISH, DNA methylation profiling, and whole-genome sequencing. For the CDKN2A/B deletion, nCNV-seq detected the loss in both astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma, with strong correlation with the CNV profiles derived from whole-genome sequencing (Pearson correlation (r) = 0.95, P < 2.2 × 10^-16 to r = 0.99, P < 2.2 × 10^-16 ) and methylome profiling. Furthermore, nCNV-seq can differentiate between homozygous and hemizygous deletions of CDKN2A/B. Taken together, nCNV-seq holds promise as a new, alternative approach for a rapid and simultaneous detection of the molecular signatures of IDH-mutant gliomas without capital expenditure for a sequencer.

Project description:Roughly 50% of adult gliomas harbor isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations. According to the 2021 WHO classification guideline, these gliomas are diagnosed as astrocytomas, harboring no 1p19q co-deletion, or oligodendrogliomas, harboring 1p19q co-deletion. Recent studies report that IDH-mutant gliomas share a common developmental hierarchy. However, the neural lineages and differentiation stages in IDH-mutant gliomas remain inadequately characterized. Using bulk transcriptomes and single-cell transcriptomes, we identified genes enriched in IDH-mutant gliomas with or without 1p19q co-deletion, we also assessed the expression pattern of stage-specific signatures and key regulators of oligodendrocyte lineage differentiation. We compared the expression of oligodendrocyte lineage stage-specific markers between quiescent and proliferating malignant single cells. The gene expression profiles were validated using RNAscope analysis and myelin staining and were further substantiated using data of DNA methylation and single-cell ATAC-seq. As a control, we assessed the expression pattern of astrocyte lineage markers. Genes concordantly enriched in both subtypes of IDH-mutant gliomas are upregulated in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPC). Signatures of early stages of oligodendrocyte lineage and key regulators of OPC specification and maintenance are enriched in all IDH-mutant gliomas. In contrast, signature of myelin-forming oligodendrocytes, myelination regulators, and myelin components are significantly down-regulated or absent in IDH-mutant gliomas. Further, single-cell transcriptomes of IDH-mutant gliomas are similar to OPC and differentiation-committed oligodendrocyte progenitors, but not to myelinating oligodendrocyte. Most IDH-mutant glioma cells are quiescent; quiescent cells and proliferating cells resemble the same differentiation stage of oligodendrocyte lineage. Mirroring the gene expression profiles along the oligodendrocyte lineage, analyses of DNA methylation and single-cell ATAC-seq data demonstrate that genes of myelination regulators and myelin components are hypermethylated and show inaccessible chromatin status, whereas regulators of OPC specification and maintenance are hypomethylated and show open chromatin status. Markers of astrocyte precursors are not enriched in IDH-mutant gliomas. Our studies show that despite differences in clinical manifestation and genomic alterations, all IDH-mutant gliomas resemble early stages of oligodendrocyte lineage and are stalled in oligodendrocyte differentiation due to blocked myelination program. These findings provide a framework to accommodate biological features and therapy development for IDH-mutant gliomas.
