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

The diagnosis of heterozygosity for X-linked ornithine carbamoyltransferase (OCT) deficiency has usually been based on measurement of the increase of orotate and orotidine excretion after an allopurinol load. We examined the choices of analyte, cutoff, and test conditions to obtain

The accumulation in blood plasma and efficiency of hemodialysis of pyrimidine compounds (orotic acid, orotidine, pseudouridine, uridine, thymine) as well as uric acid and creatinine in 23 patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) was investigated. As a reference, the analysis

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
