Abstract Despite exhibiting longer overall survival that IDH-wt counterparts, IDH-mutant gliomas remain uniformly deadly and impact patients in the prime of adult life. The immune microenvironment of IDH-mutant gliomas remains incompletely characterized, particularly with regard to distinctions between IDH-mutant astrocytoma and IDH-mutant, 1p/19q codeleted oligodendroglioma. To address this knowledge gap, we subjected dissociated tumor suspensions derived from 7 astrocytoma and 7 oligodendroglioma clinical samples to flow cytometry-based sorting for the pan-immune marker, CD45, and the microglial marker, P2RY12. This process yielded both microglial and non-microglial immune cell populations, which were then analyzed by scRNA sequencing. This workflow revealed a single large cluster of microglia, characterized by expression of Galectin-1 and lysosomal Lipase A, which was present at a significantly higher level in oligodendroglioma. While the biological significance of this cluster is unclear, gene set enrichment analysis exploring phenotypic differences between microglia in astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma revealed significant increases in expression of gene sets related to antigen presentation in astrocytoma. Parallel analysis of the non-microglial immune fraction showed an increase in the expression of pro-inflammatory gene sets, such as genes related to cytokine secretion, within the CD8 T-cell compartment of astrocytomas. We also observed upregulation of the expression of inflammatory gene sets within the dendritic cells of astrocytomas. Taken together, these changes suggest that the immune compartment of astrocytoma is more active and inflamed, and targeting the immune system in these tumors may represent a potential therapeutic avenue.
