Abstract

Back with a Vengeance: After surgery, gliomas (a type of brain tumor) recur in nearly all patients and often in a more aggressive form. Johnson et al. (p. 189 , published online 12 December 2013) used exome sequencing to explore whether recurrent tumors harbor different mutations than the primary tumors and whether the mutational profile in the recurrences is influenced by postsurgical treatment of patients with temozolomide (TMZ), a chemotherapeutic drug known to damage DNA. In more than 40% of cases, at least half of the mutations in the initial glioma were undetected at recurrence. The recurrent tumors in many of the TMZ-treated patients bore the signature of TMZ-induced mutagenesis and appeared to follow an evolutionary path to high-grade glioma distinct from that in untreated patients.

  • IDH1 mutations are early events in glial cancer development, raising the possibility that additional oncogenic mutations render GBM tumors less dependent on mutant IDH for proliferation and progression.

    “IDH1 mutations are early events in the development of glial cancer (Watanabe et al., 2009), raising the possibility that IDH mutations are important for tumor initiation, but accumulation of additional oncogenic mutations renders GBM tumors less dependent on constitutive expression of mutant IDH for tumor proliferation and progression (Johnson et al., 2014; Wakimoto et al., 2014).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
