Mutant IDH modulates suppressive myeloid populations in malignant glioma

Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) genes IDH1 and IDH2 have critical diagnostic and prognostic significance in diffuse gliomas. Neomorphic mutant IDH activity has been previously implicated in T-cell suppression; however, the effects of IDH mutations on intratumoral myeloid populations remain underexplored. In this study, we investigate the influence of IDH status on the myeloid compartment using human glioma specimens and preclinical models.
