Core Tip Uridine diphosphate-glucose 6-dehydrogenase (UGDH), a key metabolic enzyme involved in glucuronidation, is increasingly recognized for its role in hepatocellular carcinoma progression. Recent studies have revealed that dysregulated UGDH contributes not only to metabolic reprogramming but also to immune suppression by disrupting bile acid detoxification and facilitating microbial translocation from the gut. This editorial highlights the dual function of UGDH as both a metabolic and immune modulator, and introduces a novel hypothesis that positions UGDH as a potential checkpoint within the gut-liver immune axis. Understanding this interplay could lead to new therapeutic strategies targeting metabolic-immune cross-talk in gastrointestinal oncology.
