Abstract excerpt
H3 K27M-altered diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) are highly malignant tumours that arise in the midline structures of the CNS. Most DMGs carry an H3 K27M-mutation in one of the genes encoding for histone H3. Recent studies suggested that epigenetic subgroups of DMGs can be distinguished based on alterations in the MAPK-signalling pathway, tumour localisation, mutant H3-gene, or overall survival (OS). However, as...
