Abstract

:
Since the initial discovery of recurrent isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations at Arg132 in glioma, IDH1 hotspot mutations have been identified in cholangiocarcinoma, chondrosarcoma, leukemia, and various other types of cancer of sporadic incidence. Studies in glioma and leukemia have helped promote the theory that IDH1 mutations are an oncogenic event that drives tumorigenesis in general. Through bioinformatic analysis of more than 45,000 human pan-cancer samples from three independent datasets, we show here that IDH1 mutations are rare events in human cancer but are exclusively prevalent in WHO grade II and grade III (lower-grade) glioma. Interestingly, alterations in the tumor-suppressor gene TP53 (tumor protein p53) co-occur significantly with IDH1 mutations and show a tendency of exclusivity to IDH2 mutations. The co-occurrence of IDH1 mutation and TP53 alteration is widespread in glioma, particularly in those harboring IDH1R132H, IDH1R132G, and IDH1R132S, whereas co-occurrence of IDH1R132C and TP53 alteration can be found sporadically in other cancer types. In keeping with the importance of p53 in tumor suppression, TP53 status is an independent predictor of overall survival irrespective of histological and molecular subgroups in lower-grade glioma. Together, these results indicate tissue specificity of IDH1 hotspot mutation and TP53 alteration and the importance of TP53 status as a predictor of patient outcome in lower-grade glioma.

1. Introduction

The IDH1 gene encodes NADP+-dependent IDH localized in the cytoplasm and peroxisomes [1,2,3,4,5]. This enzyme not only catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to 2-oxoglutarate but also is critical to reductive carboxylation, which is required for lipogenesis in hypoxia and redox homeostasis during anchorage-independent growth [6,7]. In agreement with its physiological function of regulating the intracellular NADP+/NADPH ratio [8], IDH1 plays an important role in metabolic adaption in physiology and cancer biology.
Earlier studies revealed widespread IDH1 mutations at Arg132, an active site of the enzyme, in WHO grade II and III (referred to as lower-grade) glioma and in WHO grade IV secondary glioblastoma [9,10,11]. Among these hotspot mutations, the IDH1R132H frequency was >90%, whereas non-canonical IDH1 mutations, including IDH1R132C, IDH1R132G, IDH1R132S, and IDH1R132L (referred to collectively as IDH1R132X), were at very low frequencies [12]. Furthermore, mutations in the IDH2 gene (encoding a mitochondrial NADP+-dependent enzyme) at the analogous Arg172 were relatively uncommon in lower-grade glioma and non-existent in glioblastoma [13]. Although they were thought to be virtually exclusive in glioma [11,14], further mutational analyses revealed IDH1 and IDH2 mutations, as well as IDH2 Arg140 mutations, in various cancer types such as myeloid neoplasia, chondrosarcoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and prostate cancer [2,15].
IDH1 and IDH2 mutations acquire a neomorphic function that produces (D)-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG) from the NADPH-dependent reduction of 2-oxoglutarate [16]. High levels of D-2HG induce histone and DNA hypermethylation through competitive inhibition of histone and DNA demethylases, thereby blocking cell differentiation and promoting neural stem-like phenotype [17,18,19]; however, neural stem-cell marker genes such as NES and PROM1 are generally downregulated in IDH-mutant glioma [20]. The finding that IDH1 and IDH2 mutations occur in various other cancer types has spurred further interest in cancer metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and therapeutic targeting, also promoting the idea that these mutations drive tumorigenesis in general [1,2,3,4,5,21], despite how IDH1 and IDH2 mutations promote gliomagenesis remains unclear [13,22].
Genetically, lower-grade gliomas with IDH1 and IDH2 mutations are associated with either TP53 and/or ATRX alteration or 1p/19q codeletion [23,24]. Although TP53 is among the most-mutated tumor-suppressor genes in human cancer [25,26,27], the biological significance of TP53 alteration in lower-grade glioma requires further investigation. In this study, we analyzed three independent pan-cancer datasets and revealed that the association of IDH1 mutation with TP53 alteration is specific to glioma, which indicates a tissue-specific role for TP53 alteration in gliomagenesis.

2. Materials and Methods

2.1. Pan-Cancer Datasets

Three independent pan-cancer datasets: TCGA PanCancer dataset (TCGA_PanCancer); MSK-Impact pan-cancer dataset (MSK_Impact); and a combined, non-redundant pan-cancer dataset (Non-Redundant), were downloaded from cBioPortal [28,29]. Downloaded data included study ID, sample ID, patient ID, and patient status and survival, with matched genetic alteration data of IDH1, IDH2, TP53, CDKN2A, CDKN2B, CIC, FUBP1, and 1p/19q codeletion.
TCGA_PanCancer consists of 32 studies comprising 10,953 patients/10,967 samples from cancer types including bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA, n = 411), cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL, n = 36), colorectal adenocarcinoma (COADREAD, n = 594), breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA, n = 1084), brain lower-grade glioma (LGG, n = 514), glioblastoma (GBM, n = 592), esophageal adenocarcinoma (ESCA, n = 182), stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD, n = 440), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC, n = 523), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC, n = 372), lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD, n = 566), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC, n = 487), acute myeloid leukemia (LAML, n = 200), ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV, n = 585), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD, n = 184), skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM, n = 448), sarcoma (SARC, n = 255), and uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC, n = 529).
MSK_Impact consists of 10,336 patients/10,945 profiled samples, including glioma (n = 553), hepatobiliary cancer (Hepatobiliary, n = 355), bone cancer (Bone, n = 135), skin cancer, non-melanoma (SKNM, n = 148), small cell lung cancer (SCLC, n = 82), melanoma (n = 365), mature T and NK neoplasms (Mature T and NK, n = 134), uterine sarcoma (USARC, n = 93), small bowel cancer (Small Bowel, n = 35), and central nervous system cancer (CNS, n = 48).
Non-Redundant consists of 152 studies published from numerous institutions comprising 25,016 patients/26,922 samples with various cancer types, including acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes (mnm), skin cutaneous melanoma (skcm), metastatic melanoma (mel), uterine carcinoma (ucs), cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cscc), primary central nervous system lymphoma (pcnsl), esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (escc), esophageal adenocarcinoma (esca), ampullary carcinoma (ampca), and basal cell carcinoma (bcc).

2.2. Data Analysis

Relevant data were extracted and processed with GraphPad Prism version 9.0 software (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA) to present genetic alteration frequency and occurrence. Statistical significance in frequency difference was determined by paired t-test or Fisher’s exact test, as specified, with two-tailed p-values. Overall survival was analyzed by the Mantel-Cox log-rank test as previously described [30,31]. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed with SPSS Statistics (IBM) software by including TP53 status, IDH1 status, age, sex, and histological type, as previously described [31].

3. Results

3.1. IDH1 Hotspot Mutations Are a Rare Event but Prevalent Exclusively in Lower-Grade Glioma

To obtain a landscape of IDH1 and IDH2 mutations in human cancer, we analyzed samples from three independent pan-cancer datasets: TCGA PanCancer dataset (TCGA_PanCancer); MSK-Impact pan-cancer dataset (MSK_Impact); and a combined, non-redundant pan-cancer dataset (Non-Redundant), which comprised a total of 45,228 human samples with various cancer types (see Materials and Methods).
Analysis of TCGA_PanCancer revealed overall frequencies of IDH1 and IDH2 alterations, including mutation, homozygous deletion, and amplification, at 6% and 2%, respectively. Among these alterations, IDH1 hotspot mutations were <5% (or 480) and isolated alterations were <1%, whereas nearly 95% samples had no alteration (Figure 1; Table 1). Likewise, 99% of samples showed no alteration in IDH2, and only 0.4% (or 46) samples had Arg140 or Arg172 mutations (Table S1). The low frequencies of IDH1 and IDH2 mutations in human cancer were confirmed with MSK_Impact; the overall frequencies of IDH1 and IDH2 alterations were 3% and <1%, respectively; and IDH1 and IDH2 hotspot mutations were 2% and 0.3% (or 260 and 31), respectively (Figure 1; Table 1 and Table S1). Moreover, similar results were obtained from Non-Redundant, with IDH1 and IDH2 hotspot mutations at 1% and 0.4%, respectively (Figure 1; Table 1 and Table S1). Thus, the overall frequencies of IDH1 and IDH2 hotspot mutations were 2% and 0.4%, respectively. In contrast to the high frequencies of TP53 alteration averaging 32% (Figure 1), these results indicate that both IDH1 and IDH2 hotspot mutations are rare events in human cancer.
The frequency of IDH1 mutation in lower-grade glioma, however, was conspicuously high (77%) in TCGA_PanCancer, with cholangiocarcinoma and acute myeloid leukemia much lower at 14% and <10%, respectively (Figure 2A). IDH2 mutation was most common in acute myeloid leukemia (11%), followed by <6% in cholangiocarcinoma; however, IDH2 amplification was more common, albeit at low frequencies, among various cancer types (Figure 2B). In MSK_Impact, IDH1 alteration was 33% in various types of gliomas and 14% in hepatobiliary cancer (Figure 2D), whereas IDH2 mutation was seen most frequently in mature T and NK neoplasms (Figure 2E). In Non-Redundant, the frequency of IDH1 mutation was 100% in lower-grade glioma, and cancer types with IDH2 mutation >10% included acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and primary central nervous system lymphoma (Figure S1A,B). Again, IDH2 amplification was seen particularly in prostate adenocarcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, melanoma, and invasive breast carcinoma. In contrast, TP53 mutation was widespread among various cancer types (Figure 2C,F and Figure S1C). Therefore, although both IDH1 and IDH2 mutations are rare events in human cancer, the prevalence of IDH1 mutation in lower-grade glioma suggests a tissue-specific role in tumorigenesis.

3.2. Co-Occurrence of IDH1 Hotspot Mutation and TP53 Alteration Predominantly in Glioma

Despite the low frequency of IDH1 mutation in human cancer, further analysis revealed significant to extremely significant co-occurrence of IDH1 and TP53 alterations but mutual exclusivity between IDH2 and TP53 alterations in all three datasets (Table 2 and Table S2). Furthermore, the overall frequency of IDH1 hotspot mutation co-occurring with TP53 alteration was 49% versus 23% for the co-occurrence of IDH1 isolated alteration and TP53 alteration (Table 3). Specifically, the co-occurrence frequency remained above 50% for IDH1R132H, IDH1R132G, and IDH1R132S, but much lower for IDH1R132C and IDH1R132L (Table 4). Consistent with the mutual exclusivity, only 6% (11/182) of IDH2 hotspot mutations co-occurred with TP53 alteration (Table S3). These results indicate that TP53 alterations exhibit a tendency of co-occurring with IDH1, but not IDH2, mutations in human cancer.
To assess whether such co-occurrence is cancer-type specific, we extracted all cancer types harboring IDH1 hotspot mutation and TP53 alteration. Interestingly, 97% of the co-occurrences were in lower-grade glioma and glioblastoma in TCGA_PanCancer, with the rest including melanoma and lung adenocarcinoma (Figure 3A; Table S4). In particular, IDH1R132H, IDH1R132G, and IDH1R132S co-occurrences were exclusive to glioma, whereas IDH1R132C co-occurrence was seen in various cancer types (Figure 3B; Table S4). In MSK_Impact, 87% of the co-occurrences were gliomas of various types, and the rest included cholangiocarcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, and chondrosarcoma (Figure 3C; Table S5). Again, IDH1R132H, IDH1R132G, and IDH1R132S co-occurrences were virtually exclusive to glioma except for single cases of IDH1R132H astroblastoma, IDH1R132H adenoid cystic carcinoma, and IDH1R132G lung adenocarcinoma (Figure 3D; Table S5). Lastly, in Non-Redundant, gliomas of various types accounted for 90% of the co-occurrences, whereas acute myeloid leukemias were only 4% (Figure 3E; Table S6). Specifically, 96% of the IDH1R132H co-occurrences and 60% of the IDH1R132G co-occurrences were in glioma (Figure 3F; Table S6). As expected, co-occurrences of IDH2 hotspot mutations and TP53 alterations were extremely rare; there were a total of 11 cases among all three datasets, including 4 cases of lower-grade glioma, 3 cases of acute myeloid leukemia, and 2 cases of basal cell carcinoma (Figure S2). Therefore, the virtual exclusivity of co-occurrence of IDH1 hotspot mutation and TP53 alteration in glioma indicates the importance of TP53 alteration in IDH1-mutant gliomagenesis.

3.3. Differential Co-Occurrence Frequencies between IDH1R132H and IDH1R132X in Glioma

Non-canonical IDH1R132X occurs in 8% of lower-grade glioma harboring IDH1 hotspot mutations [13]. In keeping with the notion that co-occurrence of IDH1 hotspot mutation and TP53 alteration is glioma-specific, the mean co-occurrence frequency was fivefold greater in glioma than in non-glioma (Figure 4A); however, the difference in IDH1R132H co-occurrence frequencies between glioma and non-glioma was not statistically significant (Figure 4B), even though IDH1R132H occurred in 92% in lower-grade glioma harboring IDH1 hotspot mutations [13]. In contrast, whereas IDH1R132C is the major form in chondrosarcoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and acute myeloid leukemia [13], the co-occurrence of IDH1R132C and TP53 alteration was nearly eightfold greater in glioma compared with non-glioma (Figure S3), as was the co-occurrence of combined IDH1R132X (Figure 4B).
The significant co-occurrence of IDH1 hotspot mutation and TP53 alteration in glioma was in accordance with the consistently high frequencies found across various histological subtypes, including glioblastoma, from both TCGA_PanCancer and MSK_Impact (Table 5). In contrast, the co-occurrence frequency of IDH1R132H and TP53 alteration in oligodendroglioma averaged 17% versus >90% in astrocytoma and glioblastoma. Despite the rare occurrence of TP53 alteration in oligodendroglioma [24], the TP53 alteration frequency in IDH1R132X oligodendroglioma was 100% (5/5), significantly greater than that of IDH1R132H oligodendroglioma (p = 0.0012, Fisher’s exact test). Of note, given the mutual exclusivity of TP53 alteration and 1p/19q codeletion in IDH-mutant lower-grade glioma [24], none of the IDH1R132X oligodendrogliomas harbored CIC and/or FUBP1 mutations that are associated with 1p/19q codeletion.

3.4. TP53 Status Is an Independent Predictor of Patient Survival in Lower-Grade Glioma

Glioma patients with IDH1 hotspot mutations are known to have better survival than those without such mutations [11,24,32], but astrocytoma patients with non-canonical IDH1R132X have even longer survival than those with IDH1R132H [33]. By following the latest cIMPACT-NOW recommendation that IDH-mutant gliomas harboring homozygous CDKN2A/B deletion are equivalent to IDH1-wildtype [34], we not only confirmed this finding in the TCGA-LGG dataset but, more importantly, observed the role of TP53 status in patient survival (Figure 5A,B). TP53 status distinguished survival in both IDH1R132H and IDH1R132X subgroups despite the significant increase in overall survival in patients with IDH1R132X compared with those with IDH1R132H. The clustering of TP53-wildtype IDH1R132H glioma and TP53-altered IDH1R132X glioma in overall survival underscored the paramount importance of TP53 status in the outcomes of glioma patients. Moreover, similar significant associations were observed in the entire cohort and in histological and molecular subgroups including oligodendroglioma and IDH1-wildtype glioma (Figure 5C and Figure S4), in agreement with the tumor-suppressive function of p53 in human cancer [27,35,36].
To confirm these results, we performed a multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis and found that TP53 status was significant in the IDH1 hotspot mutation subgroup (HR = 2.079; 95% CI: 1.083–3.992; p = 0.028), in the oligodendroglioma subgroup (HR = 2.001; 95% CI: 1.032–3.879; p = 0.040) (Table 6 and Table 7), as well as in the entire cohort (HR = 1.809; 95% CI: 1.327–3.150; p = 0.001) and the IDH1-wildtype subgroup (HR = 2.572; 95% CI: 1.378–4.802; p = 0.003) (Tables S7 and S8). Therefore, TP53 status is an independent predictor of patient survival in lower-grade glioma irrespective of molecular and histological subclassifications.

4. Discussion

Through a survey of more than 45,000 pan-cancer samples, we observed that IDH1 and IDH2 hotspot mutations are uncommon (2%) and extremely rare (0.4%), respectively, in human cancer, a finding in agreement with an independent pan-cancer analysis [37]. Therefore, despite being prevalent in glioma, as reported previously [10,11,14,38], these mutations appear to be selected against in tumorigenesis, which is seemingly at odds with the general thought that these mutations induce oncogenic transformation through epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming resulting from high levels of D-2HG [13]. IDH1R132H, the most common form in glioma, produces the least amount of D-2HG and correlates with worse survival compared with the rare IDH1R132X and IDH2-R172 mutations, which produce higher levels of D-2HG [12,33,39]. Although the rare occurrence of these mutations in glioma has been attributable to the “cytotoxicity” of high levels of D-2HG [12,33], D-2HG sensitizes cells to ferroptosis [40]—an iron-dependent form of nonapoptotic cell death likely involved in tumor suppression [41]. D-2HG also exhibits tumor-suppressive activities through the inhibition of aerobic glycolysis in both IDH-mutant and IDH-wildtype leukemia cells [42]. Together with our previous studies showing that IDH1 hotspot mutations are intrinsically tumor suppressive [30,43,44], these findings may provide an explanation for the rare occurrence of IDH1 and IDH2 hotspot mutations in human cancer.
The prevalence of IDH1 hotspot mutation in glioma and its co-occurrence with TP53 alteration indicate a tissue-specific role in gliomagenesis [13]. Tissue specificity in cancer is best evidenced by hereditary cancer predisposition syndromes in which the underlying gene defects, such as mutations in APC, BRCA1, and VHL, are associated with a high risk of developing tissue-specific cancer types [45]. In nonhereditary cancers, a subset of recurring genetic alterations can be identified to be associated with a particular type of cancer [45,46]. What drives tissue specificity in cancer, however, is complex even though numerous possibilities, including cell of origin, heterogeneity, epigenetic state, and environment, have been proposed [45,46]. In keeping with this, studies have shown the requirement of Trp53 knockout/down to recapitulate a less aggressive phenotype of IDH1R132H glioma compared with IDH1-wildtype glioma [47,48,49]; however, the mechanism by which TP53 alteration contributes to gliomagenesis remains unclear.
Interestingly, p53-mediated ferroptosis, a novel function of p53, has been implicated in tumor suppression independent of its previously recognized tumor-suppressive activities in cell cycle, apoptosis, and senescence [50,51,52,53,54]. Given the strongest display of ferroptosis-sensitive gene signature in IDH-mutant lower-grade glioma among all cancer types [55], we speculate that TP53 alteration is required to inhibit ferroptosis for gliomagenesis, especially for IDH1R132X gliomas, including oligodendroglioma, that are supersensitive to ferroptosis owing to the higher levels of D-2HG. For IDH1R132H gliomas that are relatively less sensitive to ferroptosis, alternative tumor-suppressor pathways, such as 1p/19q codeletion, must be inactivated. Furthermore, our previous studies suggested the importance of the glutamate-rich cerebral environment in IDH-mutant lower-grade gliomagenesis [44,56], in agreement with the role of environment for tissue specificity in cancer. Therefore, the requirement of TP53 alteration and a glutamate-rich environment in gliomagenesis warrants further investigation to account for the prevalence of IDH1 hotspot mutations in glioma.
The tendency of mutual exclusivity between IDH2 and TP53 alteration in human cancer, including glioma, is intriguing, which may suggest alternative mechanisms of tumor-suppressor gene inactivation in tumorigenesis. Given the higher levels of D-2HG and its association with better survival [33,39], understanding how IDH2-R172 glioma cells overcome D-2HG induced sensitization to ferroptosis will shed light on the mechanism of IDH2-mutant gliomagenesis and the rare occurrence of such a mutation in human cancer.
Although the p53 tumor-suppressor pathway is altered at the frequency of 87% in glioblastoma [57], previously, the TP53 status has not been associated with patient survival outcomes despite the well-established association of TP53 alteration with IDH mutations in glioma [23,24,58,59]. Interestingly, TP53 alteration has been associated with poor outcomes in pediatric H3 K27M-mutant glioma [60]. Likewise, in lower-grade glioma we provided evidence that TP53 status is an independent predictor of overall survival in various molecular and histological subgroups, including the IDH1R132X subgroup, which was recently reported to have better outcomes than the IDH1R132H subgroup [33]. Interestingly, we observed similar overall survival between the TP53-wildtype IDH1R132H subgroup and the TP53-altered IDH1R132X subgroup based on the available size of samples; however, the paramount importance of TP53 status in IDH1R132X glioma requires validation with independent cohorts. Similarly, the importance of TP53 status in oligodendroglioma patient survival also requires validation. Moreover, additional genetic events, such as ATRX, TERT, and BRAF, which also frequently occur in IDH-mutant glioma [24,61,62], should be considered in future investigations.

5. Conclusions

IDH1 hotspot mutations are rare events in human cancer but prevalent in glioma. The co-occurrence of IDH1 hotspot mutation and TP53 alteration indicates the tissue specificity of these genetic changes in gliomagenesis. TP53 status is an important predictor of overall survival in lower-grade glioma.
