Abstract
Gliomas are central nervous system (CNS) cancers that are challenging to treat due to their high proliferation and mutation rates. High grade gliomas include grade 3 and grade 4 tumors, which characteristically have a poor prognosis despite advancements in diagnostic methods and therapeutic options. Advances in metabolomics are resulting in more insight as to how cancer modifies the metabolism of the cell and surrounding tissue. Hence, this avenue of research may also emerge as a way to precisely target metabolites unique to gliomas. These biomarkers may provide opportunities for glioma diagnosis, prognosis and future therapeutic intervention. In this review, we harvest the literature that highlights notable biomolecules in high grade gliomas and promising therapeutic targets and interventions.
