Abstract Current treatment for diffuse astrocytoma fails to address its underlying molecular mechanisms leading to inevitable disease progression and eventual patient death. Genomic studies have implicated ATRX alterations as critical to low grade glioma biology.

This phenomenon highlights the importance of epigenetic mechanisms in the pathogenesis of MDS.

Abstract:
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy that is associated with a dismal prognosis. Pan-genomic studies have demonstrated the involvement of ATRX and ZNRF3 genes in adrenocortical tumorigenesis. Our aims were to evaluate the protein expression of ATRX and ZNRF3 in a cohort of 82 adults with ACC and to establish their prognostic value. Two pathologists analyzed immuno-stained slides of a tissue microarray. The low protein expression of ATRX and ZNRF3 was associated with a decrease in overall survival (OS) (p = 0.045, p = 0.012, respectively). The Cox regression for ATRX protein expr

Interestingly, H3.3G34R mutant gliomas commonly harbor TP53mutations, ATRX mutations, and alterations in PDGFRA signaling.
