The hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP), a branch of glucose metabolism, provides a substrate for glycosylation.modification, which has a wide-ranging effect on cellular functions. Glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate.transaminase 2 (GFPT2) has been reported to regulate the HBP as the first and rate-limiting enzyme. Given the.inverse association between GFPT2 expression and survival of patients with serous ovarian cancer (SOC) observed.in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we attempted to investigate the role of GFPT2 and its.related mechanisms in SOC. The results showed that GFPT2 was over-expressed in SOC tissues, and positive.correlations with advanced stage (FIGO III/IV), suboptimal removal rate and poor survival were observed in 90.SOC patients. Cell migration and invasion were also inhibited in GFPT2 knockdown SKOV3 and HEY cells. The.levels of O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) and intranuclear β-catenin were evaluated and the observed.increase in O-GlcNAcylation induced by GFPT2 may contribute to epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). These .data provide novel insights into the function of GFPT2 and O-GlcNAcylation in the EMT and thus the invasiveness .SOC.
