Molecular and clinical characterization of IDH associated immune signature in lower-grade gliomas.

ABSTRACT: Background: Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) affect the development and prognosis of gliomas. We investigated the role of IDH mutations in the regulation of immune phenotype in lower-grade gliomas (LGGs).Method and patients: A total of 1,008 cases with clinical and IDH mutation data from five cohorts were enrolled. Samples with RNA sequencing data from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) were used as training set, whereas RNA data from the Cancer Genome Atlas, Repository for Molecular Brain Neoplasia, GSE16011, and CGGA microarray databases were used for validation. R language tools and bioinformatics analysis were used for gene signature construction and biological function annotation.Results: We found that IDH mutations caused down-regulation of local i
