While there is one in vivo study reporting no change in TCA cycle metabolites in tissues from IDH1-mutant gliomas compared to wildtype tumors [28], our results are in line with other in vitro data [29] and a recently published in vivo study showing that TCA metabolites were reduced in IDH1-mutant patient-derived xenografts and in human glioma tissues [17]. Here, IDH1 is linked to glioma.
