Diffuse gliomas (DGs) are the most common and lethal primary neoplasms in the central nervous system. The latest 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (CNS) was published in 2021, immensely changing the approach to diagnosis and decision making. As a part of the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) project, our aim was to provide genomic profiling of gliomas in a Chinese cohort. Two hundred eighty six gliomas with different grades were collected over the last decade. Using the Illumina HiSeq platform, over 75.8 million high-quality 150 bp paired-end reads were generated per sample, yielding a total of 43.4 billion reads. We also collected each patient's clinical and pathological information and used it to annotate their genetic data. All patients were diagnosed and classified by neuro-pathologist under the 2021 WHO classification. This dataset provides an important reference for researchers and will significantly advance our understanding of gliomas.
