To identify potential targets related to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) metabolism in gliomas, we used RNA immunoprecipitation to identify a novel long noncoding RNA renamed malate dehydrogenase degradation helper (MDHDH) (NONCODE annotation ID: NONHSAT138800.2, NCBI Reference Sequence: NR_028345), which bound to MDH2 (malate dehydrogenase 2), that is downregulated in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and associated with metabolic regulation. This evidence concerns the gene MDH2 and central nervous system cancer.
