Epitranscriptomic analysis reveals clinical and molecular signatures in glioblastoma.

ABSTRACT: This study characterizes the glioblastoma (GB) epitranscriptomic landscape in patient who evolve to progressive disease (PD) or pseudo-progressive disease (psPD). Novel differences in N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation patterns between these groups are identified in the first biopsy. Retrospective data of patients that were eventually deemed to have progressive disease or pseudoprogressive disease was captured from the electronic health record, and RNA from the first resection specimen was utilized to evaluate N6-methyladenosine (m6A) biomarkers from FFPE samples. Molecular analysis of m6A methylation modified RNA employed ACA-based RNase MazF digestion. After Quantitative Normalization with ComBat to mitigate batch effects, we identifed differentially methylated transcripts and gene
