The contribution of these mutations to gliomagenesis is not completely understood and research is hampered by the lack of relevant tumor models. We previously described the development of the patient-derived high-grade oligodendroglioma xenograft model E478 that carries the commonly occurring IDH1-R132H mutation. We here report on the analyses of E478 xenografts at the genetic, histologic and metabolic level. Results: LC-MS and in situ mass spectrometric imaging by LESA-nano ESI-FTICR revealed high levels of the proposed oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG), the product of enzymatic conversion of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) by IDH1-R132H, in the tumor but not in surrounding brain parenchyma. α-KG levels and total NADP+-dependent IDH activity were similar in IDH1-mutant and -wildtype xenografts, demonstrating that IDH1-mutated cancer cells maintain α-KG levels. Interestingly, IDH1-mutant tumor cells in vivo present with high densities of mitochondria and increased levels of mitochondrial activity as compared to IDH1-wildtype xenografts. It is not yet clear whether this altered mitochondrial activity is a driver or a consequence of tumorigenesis. Conclusions: The oligodendroglioma model presented here is a valuable model for further functional elucidation of the effects of IDH1 mutations on tumor metabolism and may aid in the rational development of novel therapeutic strategies for the large subgroup of gliomas carrying IDH1 mutations. date: 2013 publisher: BioMed Central id_scheme: DOI ppn_swb: 1653735570 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-194516 language: eng bibsort: NAVISANNACINCREASEDM2013 full_text_status: public publication: Acta Neuropathologica Communications volume: 1 number: 18 place_of_pub: London pagerange: 1-12 issn: 2051-5960 citation: Navis, Anna C. ; Niclou, Simone P. ; Fack, Fred ; Stieber, Daniel ; van Lith, Sanne ; Verrijp, Kiek ; Wright, Alan ; Stauber, Jonathan ; Tops, Bastiaan ; Otte-Holler, Irene ; Wevers, Ron A. ; van Rooij, Arno ; Pusch, Stefan ; von Deimling, Andreas ; Tigchelaar, Wikky ; van Noorden, Cornelis JF ; Wesseling, Pieter ; Leenders, William PJ (2013) Increased mitochondrial activity in a novel IDH1-R132H mutant human oligodendroglioma xenograft model: in situ detection of 2-HG and α-KG.
