Abstract excerpt
Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) and IDH2 are found in a somatic mosaic fashion in patients with multiple enchondromas. Enchondromas are benign cartilaginous tumors arising in the medulla of bone. The mutant IDH1/2 causes elevated levels of D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2-HG). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are the precursor of the osteoblastic, chondrogenic and adipocytic lineage and we hypothesized that...
