A non-coding single nucleotide polymorphism at 8q24 drives IDH1-mutant glioma formation


ABSTRACT: Establishing causal links between inherited polymorphisms and cancer risk is challenging. Here, we focus on the single nucleotide polymorphism rs55705857 (A>G), which confers a 6-fold increased risk of IDH-mutant low-grade glioma (LGG) and is amongst the highest genetic associations with cancer. By fine-mapping the locus, we reveal that rs55705857 itself is the causal variant and is associated with molecular pathways that drive LGG. Mechanistically, we show that rs55705857 resides within a brain-specific enhancer, where the risk allele disrupts OCT2/4 binding, allowing increased interaction with the Myc promoter and increased Myc expression. To functionally test rs55705857, we generated an IDH1R132H-driven LGG mouse model and show that mutating the highly conserved, orthologous mouse rs55705857 locus dramatically accelerated tumor development from 463 to 172 days and increased penetrance from 30% to 75%. Overall, our work generates new LGG models and reveals mechanisms of the heritable predisposition to lethal glioma in ~40% of LGG-patients.
