Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) I and II mutations in gliomas cause an abnormal accumulation of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) in these tumor cells. These mutations have potential prognostic value in that knowledge of the mutation status can lead to improved surgical resection. Information on mutation status obtained by immunohistochemistry or genomic analysis is not available during surgery. We report a rapid extraction nanoelectrospray ionization (nESI) method of determining 2-HG. This should allow ...[more]
