Abstract
This study evaluated the differences between IDH1-R132H and CD133 expression in different categories of astrocytoma. This study used a cross-sectional design. Sixty-seven paraffin embedded block of Diffuse Astrocytoma (DA), Anaplastic Astrocytoma (AA) and Glioblastoma (GB) were assessed using using the monoclonal antibody IDH1-R132H and Rabbit polyclonal antibody CD133. It was found that there was a significant relationship between the expression of IDH1-R132H and CD133 in DA, AA and GB (p<0.001). Astrocytoma with IDH-mutant molecular status will express more markers of cancer stem cell CD133 than IDH-wildtype. The IDH1-R132H and CD133 can provide predictive value on treatment success, disease prognosis, recurrence and can be considered as target combination therapy with chemotherapy.
