Detection of ATRX and IDH1-R132H immunohistochemistry in the progression of 211 paired gliomas.

ABSTRACT: Recurrence and progression to higher grade lesions are key biological events and characteristic behaviors in the evolution process of glioma. A small residual population of cells always escapes surgery and chemoradiation, resulting in a typically fatal tumor recurrence or progression. IDH mutation (isocitrate dehydrogenase) and ATRX (alpha-thalassemia/mental retardation, X-linked) loss/mutation occur in association and may represent early genetic alterations in the development of gliomas. However, their prognostic value in the evolution of gliomas still needs further investigation.Two hundreds and eleven serial sampling of gliomas were included in our study. We used immunohistochemistry (IHC) to detect IDH1-R132H mutation and ATRX status and showed that the IDH1-R132H and (or) ATRX status could be necessary to provide the basic molecular information for the "integrated diagnosis" of gliomas. We illustrated an evaluation formula for the evolution of gliomas by IDH1-R132H combined with ATRX immunohistochemistry and identified the association of IDH1-R132H/ATRX loss accompanied by longer progression time interval of patients with gliomas. Furthermore, we observed that most recurrences had a consistent IDH1 and ATRX status with their matched primary tumors and demonstrated the progressive pattern of grade II astrocytoma/oligodendroglial tumors and anaplastic oligoastrocytoma with or without IDH1-R132H. Identification of IDH1-R132H and ATRX loss status in the primary-recurrent gliomas may aid in treatment strategy selection, therapeutic trial design, and clinical prognosis evaluation.

Project description:The prognosis for the WHO grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma is better than IDH-wildtype glioblastoma (GBM) patients. The purpose of this study is to explore the potential mechanism of how IDH1 mutation can increase the efficacy of radiotherapy and to establish a risk-score model to predict the efficacy of radiotherapy in WHO grade 4 gliomas. First, we conducted experimental study on the effect of IDH1R132H mutation on glioma cells in vitro. Radiosensitivity of glioma cells was detected by γ-H2AX after 5 Gy radiation. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion were determined respectively by CCK-8, EDU, monolayer cell migration scratch assay and Transwell assay. Then we analyzed IDH1 gene status and the survival of WHO grade 4 glioma patients received radiotherapy in our center and verified our results by analyzing CGGA and TCGA database. For the risk-score model, we use CGGA data to find genetic differences between WHO grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma and IDH-wildtype GBM patients, and determined a 4-gene radiotherapy-related signature through survival analysis by R software. Evaluation and verification through different glioma validation sets and different statistical methods. For in vitro experiments, we established glioma cells stably overexpressing IDH1 wild-type and IDH1-mutant proteins. γ-H2AX assay showed that IDH1-mutant glioma cells had higher radiosensitivity than wild-type. CCK-8 and EDU assay showed that proliferation capacity of IDH1-mutant glioma cells declined. Transwell assay and monolayer cell migration scratch assay also showed that IDH1-mutant glioma cells reduced migration and invasion capabilities. Among the 83 WHO grade 4 glioma patients who received radiotherapy in our center, WHO grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma patients had longer OS and PFS versus IDH-wildtype GBM (P = 0.0336, P = 0.0324, respectively). TCGA and CGGA database analysis had the similar results. Through complex analysis of CGGA and TCGA databases, we established a risk-model that can predict the efficacy of radiotherapy for WHO grade 4 glioma patients. The 4-gene radiotherapy-related signature including ADD3, GRHPR, RHBDL1 and SLC9A9. Patients in the high-risk group had worse OS compared to low-risk group (P = 0.0001). High- and low-risk groups of patients receiving radiotherapy have significant survival differences, while patients who did not receive radiotherapy have no survival difference both in CGGA and TCGA databases. WHO grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma is more radiosensitive than IDH-wildtype GBM patients. Our 4-gene radiotherapy-related signature can predict the radiation efficacy of WHO grade 4 glioma patients, and it may provide some reference for clinical treatment options.

Project description:Abstract Introduction: The updated 2016 edition of the WHO Classification of Tumor of the Central Nervous System has shifted from the traditional approach primarily based on microscopic features to that on genetic hallmarks. The classification of diffuse gliomas is now defined in accordance with their IDH and 1p/19q status. Although that shift has resulted in a more objective definition of diffuse gliomas, genetic testings, which are not always available worldwide, has become mandatory for WHO diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for mutant IDH1R132H and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for 1p/19q are the most popular methods, but IDH1R132H does not detect other loci and currently available probes for 1p36 and 19q13 are known to yield false positive results (about 15%). To overcome such disadvantages, we verified the utility of combined IHC for p53 and ATRX in addition to IDH1R132H, since about 90% of IDH mutated astrocytomas carry TP53 mutations followed by ATRX mutations in 80% of TP53 mutants and TP53 or ATRX mutations, which are detectable on IHC, are mutually exclusive to 1p/19q co-deletion. Materials and Methods: Archived 97 grade II-IV diffuse gliomas of adults with known 1p/19q status on FISH testing (Vysis/Abbotte DNA FISH probes, Chicago, IL) were served for study. Using Envision kit (Dako, Santa Clara, CA), IDHR132H (H09; Dianova, Hamburg, Germany), p53 (DO-7; DAKO) and ATRX (polyclonal HPA001906; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) were applied formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections. Tumors with strongly positive nuclei > 10% of tumor cells on p53 IHC was regarded as positive (TP53 mutated) based on previous studies. Results: All ATRX-lost gliomas were 1p/19q non-deleted. Seven IDH1R132H-negative tumors were p53-positive and ATRX-lost. Six IDH1R132H-positive and ATRX-lost tumors were p53-negative. Of ATRX-intact 53 tumors, 19 tumors were p53-positive; 18 of which were 1p/19q non-deleted. Of 13 co-deleted tumors, two were IDH1R132H-negative. Conclusions: ATRX loss in gliomas was equivalent to 1p/19q non-deletion. IDH1R132H-negative, p53-positive and ATRX-lost gliomas were highly suspicious of carrying IDH mutations other than IDH1R132H. IDH1R132H-positive, ATRX-lost and p53-negative gliomas were suggested to have nonsense or frame-shift mutations of TP53. Although when IDH1R132H and p53 are negative and ATRX is intact it is difficult to predict 1p/19q status, the combined immunohistochemistry for IDH1R132H, p53 and ATRX improves the molecular classification of diffuse gliomas in daily practice.
