Intracerebral Distribution of the Oncometabolite D-2-Hydroxyglutarate in Mice Bearing Mutant Isocitrate Dehydrogenase Brain Tumors: Implications for Tumorigenesis

The prevalence of mutant IDH1 brain tumors has generated significant efforts to understand the role of the mutated enzyme product D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D2HG), an oncometabolite, in tumorigenesis, as well as means to eliminate it. Glymphatic clearance was proposed as a pathway that could be manipulat...
