Abstract

NL IDH-WT gliomas represent an infiltrating glioma subcategory with a superior prognosis which can only be detected using genome-wide analysis. Differential expression of genes potentially involved in immune checkpoint and amino acid signaling pathways is providing insight into mechanisms of gliomagenesis and could pave the way to novel treatment targets for infiltrating gliomas.
