Pan-cancer analysis of the transcriptional expression of histone acetylation enzymes in solid tumors defines a new classification scheme for gliomas by Junhao Zhang, Lingbo Li, Aiwei Tang, Chucheng Wang, Yupeng Wang, Yongqi Hu, Guangting He, Guangting He, Wangjun Liao, Wangjun Liao, Wangjun Liao, Rui Zhou

“…Notably, the AC-V subtype comprised over 95% of glioma patients, suggesting glioma patients exhibited distinct expression patterns of histone acetylation-modifying enzymes compared to patients with other solid tumors. Therefore, we re-conducted the consensus clustering analysis specifically within the context of gliomas and identified five subtypes, denoted “AC-GI” to “AC-GV”, which were characterized by differences in HATs/HDACs expression patterns, biological and immune status, genetic alterations, and clinical outcomes. …”
