Abstract excerpt
The 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) grading system of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-mutant astrocytomas relies on histological features and the presence of homozygous deletion of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A and 2B (CDKN2A/B). DNA methylation profiling has become highly relevant in the diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) tumors including gliomas, and it has been incorporated into routine...
