A new IDH-independent hypermethylation phenotype is associated with astrocyte-like cell state in glioblastoma
3 Jul 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: DNA methylation plays a crucial role in cancer development and progression and has been linked to genetically and clinically distinct tumor classes, including IDH-mutated and IDH-wildtype adult-type diffuse gliomas. Here, we identify a CpG-island methylator phenotype (CIMP) that characterizes the receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (RTK2) subtype of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma. RESULTS: This RTK2-CIMP affects...
