ABSTRACT
No biomarker has yet been identified that allows accurate diagnosis and prognosis of oral cancers. In this study, we investigated the presence of key metabolites in oral cancer using proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to identify metabolic biomarkers of gingivobuccal oral squamous cell carcinoma (GB-OSCC). NMR spectroscopy revealed that uracil was expressed in 83.09% of tumor tissues and pyrimidine metabolism was active in GB-OSCC; these results correlated well with immunohistochemistry (IHC) and RNA sequencing data. Based on further gene and protein analyses, we proposed a pathway for the production of uracil in GB-OSCC tissues. Uridinetriphosphate (UTP) is hydrolyzed to uridine diphosphate (UDP) by CD39 in the tumor microenvironment (TME). We hypothesized that UDP enters the cell with the help of the UDP-specific P2Y6 receptor for further processing by ENTPD4/5 to produce uracil. As the ATP reserves diminish, the weakened immune cells in the TME utilize pyrimidine metabolism as fuel for antitumor activity, and the same mechanism is hijacked by the tumor cells to promote their survival. Correspondingly, the differential expression of ENTPD4 and ENTPD5 in immune and tumor cells, respectively, indicatedtheir involvement in disease progression. Furthermore, higher uracil levels were detected in patients with lymph node metastasis, indicating that metastatic potential is increased in the presence of uracil. The presence of uracil and/or expression patterns of intermediate molecules in purine and pyrimidine pathways, such asCD39, CD73, and P2Y6 receptors together with ENTPD4 and ENTPD5, hold promise as biomarker(s) for oral cancer diagnosis and prognosis.
