Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: IDH1R132H is the defining mutation of low-grade gliomas (LGGs), driving broad epigenetic rewiring that leads to malignant transformation. Recent studies have demonstrated that cell fate change from astrocyte to LGG is accompanied by redistribution of H3K4 methylation. By modulating the H3K4 methyltransferase KMT2A in a conditionally IDH1R132H-expressing human astrocyte model system, we sought to...
