IDH1 and acute myeloid leukemia: Mutations in IDH1 and IDH2, which represent the most frequently mutated metabolic genes in human cancer, are implicated to be mutated in more than 50–80 % of low-grade gliomas and secondary glioblastomas (sGBM), 10 % of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, 20 % of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 56 % of chondrosarcomas, and over 10 % of melanoma cases [1–5].
