High-grade gliomas derived from an ovarian mature teratoma: clonal dynamics and genetic insights.

UNLABELLED: High-grade glioma (HGG) arising from a mature ovarian teratoma is extremely rare and its genetic alterations remain largely unknown. We report a case of WHO Grade 4 HGG (HGG-G4) developing 3 years after cystectomy for ovarian mature teratoma, where a WHO Grade 3 HGG (HGG-G3) was identified upon pathological reevaluation. Whole-exome sequencing confirmed the clonal relationship between HGG-G3 and HGG-G4, revealing genome-wide copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity, copy-number alterations, and whole-genome doubling in both HGGs. Genomic and epigenetic analyses have suggested multistep tumorigenesis and clonal alteration during the clinical course, particularly in response to chemotherapy, in HGGs arising from ovarian teratomas.

Relationship between dose, time, and tumor yield in mouse dimethylhydrazine-induced colon tumorigenesis.

Colorectal tumor yield and volume data were obtained using 355 CF1 mice serially sacrificed up to 84 weeks following various dose levels of the carcinogen 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dichloride (DMH). Several conclusions were reached: (a) With increasing doses of DMH, there was an increased tumor yield and decreased latency period. (b) With repeated doses, there was a rapidly cumulative tumor yield. (c) New tumors continued to accumulate in the colon and rectum even at long intervals after the DMH treatments. This was substantiated by a positive correlation between the number of tumors per colon and the delay after DMH. In addition, when several tumors were present in the same mouse, their sizes were graded rather than uniform. These observations are consistent with a 2- or multi-step carcinogenesis mechanism. The latter implies that DMH induces a permanent transmissible alteration within some cells which thereafter will be at risk for further alterations capable of initiating cancer growth.
