The isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene mutation has been recently found, which may be involved in the occurrence of leukemia. The incidence of IDH gene mutation in the patients with adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is high, especially in the AML patients with normal karyotype. Different subtype and molecular biology of IDH display a different effect on the AML prognosis. This gene mutation is related with treatment response, residual, recurrence of leukemia, and it could be a sign of test and a monitoring tool of minimal residual disease (MRD). The IDH gene mutation may be an index for predicting prognosis and guiding therapy. In this article, the research progress of IDH gene mutation and its correlation with acute myeloid leukemia, especially with the clinical characteristics,are reviewed.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the prevalence, clinical characteristics and prognostic significance of the isocitrate dehydrogenase 2(IDH2) mutations in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).
METHODS:
The bone marrow samples of 223 patients with newly diagnosed AML confirmed by MICM typing from January 2015 to October 2018 were collected. The mutation of exon 4 of IDH2 gene was detected by direct sequancing of PCR product; the incidence and types of IDH2 gene mutation in AML patients were analyzed; the clinical characteristics of AML patients with IDH2 gene mutation were analyzed and the therapeutic efficacy for these patients was evaluated.
RESULTS:
In a cohort of 223 AML patients, mutations were detected in 23(10.31%) patients, among them, 15 with R140Q mutations(65.22%) , 6 with R172K mutations(26.09%) and 2 with R140W mutations(8.70%). The median age in IDH2 mutated group was older than that in non.mutated group(P=0.008). The platelet level at initial diagnosis in IDH2 mutated group was higher than that in non.mutated group(P=0.010). There was no significant statistical difference between IDH2 mutated group and non.mutated group in FAB subtypes of AML(P>0.05). But the rate of IDH2 mutation in M4 and M5 was higher. The rate of IDH2 mutations was higher in AML with normal karyotype and in AML with NPM1 mutations. R140Q mutations associated with NPM1 mutations(χ=8.481,P=0.004), but R172K mutations not associated with NPM1 mutation(P>0.05). IDH2 mutated patients had a lower complete remission rate than non.mutated patients(57.14% vs 80.46%, χ=5.927,P=0.015). The complete remission rate of R140Q mutated patients was not significantly statistically different from non.mutated patients. The complete remission rate of R172K mutated patients was very significantly lower than non.mutated patients(χ=7.734,P=0.005). In the patients without NPM1 mutation, the 2 years overall survival in IDH2 mutated group was lower than in non.mutated group(36.36% vs 66.40%,χ=3.958,P=0.047), the 2 years overall survival of R172K mutated group was significantly lower than non.mutated group(although P>0.05). In all patients, the 2 years overall survival between IDH2 mutated group and non.mutated group was not statistically different(50% vs 66.88%,P>0.05), the 2 years overall survival of R172K mutated group was significantly lower than non.mutated group(although P>0.05). In the patients with normal karyotype or with mutated NPM1, the 2 years overall survival between IDH2 mutated group and non.mutated group was not statistically different(P>0.05).
CONCLUSION
IDH2 gene mutations are more common in AML patients at older age, higher platelets level and normal karyotype. The rate of IDH2 mutation in M4 and M5 is higher. IDH2 gene mutations associate with NPMl gene mutations, but R172K mutations not associates with NPM1mutation. IDH2 gene mutations associate with prognosis of AML patients, R140Q mutations have no effect on prognosis of patients, but R172K mutations may be the molecular markers for poor prognosis in AML patients.

The diagnostic and prognostic potential of an onco-metabolite, 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) as a proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) detectable biomarker of the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutated (IDH-MT) gliomas has drawn attention of neuroradiologists recently. However, due to severe spectral overlap with background signals, quantification of 2HG can be very challenging. In this technical review for neuroradiologists, first, the biochemistry of 2HG and its significance in the diagnosis of IDH-MT gliomas are summarized. Secondly, various 1H-MRS methods used in the previous studies are outlined. Finally, wereview previous in vivo studies, and discuss the current status of 1H-MRS in the diagnosis of IDH-MT gliomas.

PURPOSE: To investigate whether volumetric analysis based on T2WI and contrast-enhanced (CE) T1WI can distinguish between isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 mutation-positive (IDH1(P)) and -negative (IDH1(N)) glioblastomas (GBMs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively enrolled 109 patients with histopathologically proven GBMs after surgery or stereotactic biopsy and preoperative MR imaging. We measured the whole-tumor volume in each patient using a semiautomatic segmentation method based on both T2WI and CE T1WI. We compared the tumor volumes between IDH1(P) (n = 12) and IDH1(N) (n = 97) GBMs using an unpaired t-test. In addition, we performed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis for the differentiation of IDH1(P) and IDH1(N) GBMs using the tumor volumes based on T2WI and CE T1WI. RESULTS: The mean tumor volume based on T2WI was larger for IDH1(P) GBMs than IDH1(N) GBMs (108.8 +/- 68.1 and 59.3 +/- 37.3 mm3, respectively, P = 0.0002). In addition, IDH1(P) GBMs had a larger tumor volume on CE T1WI than did IDH1(N) tumors (49.00 +/- 40.14 and 22.53 +/- 17.51 mm3, respectively, P < 0.0001). ROC analysis revealed that the tumor volume based on T2WI could distinguish IDH1(P) from IDH1(N) with a cutoff value of 90.25 (P < 0.05): 7 of 12 IDH1(P) (58.3%) and 79 of 97 IDH1(N) (81.4%). CONCLUSION: Volumetric analysis of T2WI and CE T1WI could enable IDH1(P) GBMs to be distinguished from IDH1(N) GBMs. We assumed that secondary GBMs with IDH1(P) underwent stepwise progression and were more infiltrative than those with IDH1(N), which might have resulted in the differences in tumor volume.

BACKGROUND: Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to yield alpha-ketoglutarate (alpha-KG) with production of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). Dysfunctional IDH leads to reduced production of alpha-KG and NADH and increased production of 2-hydroxyglutarate, an oncometabolite. This results in increased oxidative damage and stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor alpha, causing cells to be prone to tumorigenesis. METHODS: This study investigated IDH mutations in 61 Ewing sarcoma family tumors (ESFTs), using a pentose nucleic acid clamping method and direct sequencing. RESULTS: We identified four cases of ESFTs harboring IDH mutations. The number of IDH1 and IDH2 mutations was equal and the subtype of IDH mutations was variable. Clinicopathologic analysis according to IDH mutation status did not reveal significant results. CONCLUSIONS: This study is the first to report IDH mutations in ESFTs. The results indicate that ESFTs can harbor IDH mutations in previously known hot-spot regions, although their incidence is rare. Further validation with a larger case-based study would establish more reliable and significant data on prevalence rate and the biological significance of IDH mutations in ESFTs.

OBJECTIVE: Malignant gliomas with neuronal marker expression (MGwNM) are rare and poorly characterized. Increasingly diverse types of MGwNM have been described and these reported cases underscore the dilemmas in the classification and diagnosis of those tumors. The aim of this study is to provide additional insights into MGwNM and present the clinicopathological features of 18 patients. METHODS: We reviewed the medical records of 18 patients diagnosed as MGwNM at our institute between January 2006 and December 2012. Macroscopic total resection was performed in 11 patients (61%). We evaluated the methylation status of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and expression of isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH-1) in all cases, and deletions of 1p and 19q in available cases. RESULTS: The estimated median overall survival was 21.2 months. The median progression-free survival was 6.3 months. Six patients (33%) had MGMT methylation but IDH1 mutation was found in only one patient (6%). Gene analysis for 1p19q performed in nine patients revealed no deletion in six, 19q deletion only in two, and 1p deletion only in one. The extent of resection was significantly correlated with progression free survival on both univariate analysis and multivariate analysis (p=0.002 and p=0.013, respectively). CONCLUSION: In this study, the overall survival of MGwNM was not superior to glioblastoma. The extent of resection has a significant prognostic impact on progression-free survival. Further studies of the prognostic factors related to chemo-radio therapy, similar to studies with glioblastoma, are mandatory to improve survival.

9.Research Advances of IDH2 Gene Mutation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
Journal of Experimental Hematology 2016;24(2):632-636
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a malignant clonal hematologic disease from hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. The isocitrate dehychogenase 2 (IDH2) gene mutation has been recently found, which may be associated with the course of AML. The incidence of IDH2 gene mutation in the patients with acute myeloid leukemia is high, especially in the AML patients with normal karyotype. Different subtypes of IDH2 mutation, or companing other molecular biology, will make different influence on clinical features and progress of patients with AML. IDH2 mutation is stable, which can be used as the test sign of AML and minimal residual disease (MRD), and for guiding the clinical treatment and predicting the progress. In this article, the research progress of IDH2 mutation in acute myeloid leukemia is reviewed.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the coexisting mutations in IDH-mutated acute myeloid leukemia(AML) and its relation with partial clinical parametrs.
METHODS:
The exon 4 mutation of IDH1/2 gene was screened by using genome DNA-PCR combined with sanger sequencing, 51 targeted gene mutations in the patients with IDH1/2 mutation were detected by using high throughput DNA sequencing combined with sanger sequencing.
RESULTS:
Among 358 patients, the IDH1/2 mutation was found in 46 cases including IDH1 mutation in 35 cases and IDH2 mutation in 11 cases, 97.87%(45/46) patients with IDH1/2 mutation simultaneously carried other gene mutations including 8(17.8%) cases with mutation of double gene, 17(37.8%) cases with mutation of 3 genes and 20(44.4%) cases with mutation of ≥ 4 genes. The mutation frequency of each patient averaged 3.52 times. In mutation of accompanied genes, the common genes were NPM1(n=29, 63.0%), next DNMT3A(n=25, 54.3%), FLT3-ITD(n=7, 15.2%), TET2(n=5, 10.9%) and NRAS(n=5, 10.9%). The average WBC level of patients with NPM1 mutation in IDH1 mutation group was higher than that of patients in wild type group(P<0.05). The complete remission (CR) rate of patients with DNMT3A mutation was significant lower than that of patients with wild type (30% vs 80%, P<0.01). The presence of ≥ 4 mutations was found to be significantly associated with higher white blood level than that in the patients with double mutations(P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
More than 95% AML patients with IDH1/2 mutation commonly show additional mutations. The number and the type of IDH coexisting mutations have certain effect on the clinical features and CR rate.
