We investigated the relationship between the toxic effect of allopurinol and pyrimidine metabolism in mice. Allopurinol-induced increases in plasma transaminase levels in dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-sensitized mice were not affected by uridine. In contrast, plasma creatinine and BUN tended to decrease 18

The allopurinol challenge test was performed on 44 healthy subjects (28 children and 16 adolescents) in order to establish normal values of urinary orotic acid excretion following allopurinol ingestion in the paediatric population. The subjects were divided into three groups

A liver transplantation from an asymptomatic mother, who was a carrier of ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, to her daughter, who had severe manifestation, was successfully performed. One-year monitoring of plasma amino acid and urinary orotate/orotidine levels revealed no abnormality in the

Allopurinol induced pyrimidinuria is a sensitive and specific test that identifies the increased de novo pyrimidine mononucleotide biosynthesis accompanying ornithine trans carbamylase deficiency. We hypothesize that the increased de novo DNA synthesis characteristic of malignant tumors can be detected using

Orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) is an interesting enzyme with an unusual catalytic activity and a potential drug target in Plasmodium falciparum, which causes malaria. ODCase has been shown to exhibit unusual and interesting interactions with a variety of nucleotide ligands. Cytidine-5'-monophosphate
