Research Article: Uridine-cytidine kinase 2 is correlated with immune, DNA damage repair and promotion of cancer stemness in pan-cancer

Date Published: 2025-01-27

Abstract:
Background: UCK2 (Uridine-Cytidine Kinase 2) is a promising prognostic marker for malignant tumors, but its association with immune infiltration and cancer stemness in pan-cancer remains to be fully understood. we find that gene UCK2 is closed related to RNA stemness scores (RNAss) and DNA stemness scores (DNAss), which is measured the tumor stemness. We also discover an association between UCK2 expression and immune cells by CIBERSORT algorithm, ESTIMATE algorithm and ssGSEA algorithm, especially, related to T cell, monocytes, mast cells, and macrophages. This study aims to shed light on the role and possible mechanism of UCK2 in pan-cancer.
