Mutations in Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1) have been reported in over 70% of low-grade gliomas and secondary glioblastomas (GBM) and they are associated with the accumulation of the oncometabolite 2-HG within the tumor. Despite these observations, the metabolic fluxes associated with 2-HG production are not fully understood. This study demonstrates using 13C MRS in combination 13C-labeled glucose and glutamine that glucose does not contribute significantly to 2-HG production and that glutamine is the main source of 2-HG in our U87 GBM mutant IDH1 cells.
