A series of novel 6-methylene-bridged uracil derivatives have been prepared as inhibitors of human thymidine phosphorylase (TP). To enhance the in vivo antitumor activity of fluorinated pyrimidine 2'-deoxyribonucleosides such as 2'-deoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)uridine (F(3)dThd), a potent TP inhibitor preventing their degradation to

Several pteridine analogues 4-13, 23-26 have been synthesized and tested in vitro against three cancer cell lines, MCF7 (breast), NCI-H460 (lung) and SF-268 (CNS). All tested pteridines can serve as novel templates for the anticancer chemotherapy and can serve as

In this work radicals generated by dissociative electron attachment to iodoacetamide (H2NCOCH2.) and 6-chloromethyluracil (U5CH2.) are suggested to react with DNA nucleotides in frozen aqueous solutions via either hydrogen abstraction or addition to the double bonds of the bases. Methyl

A series of water soluble N(1)- and C(6)-substituted uracil pyridinium compounds were prepared as potential inhibitors of thymidine phosphorylase (TP). The C(6)-uracil substituted derivatives were the most active. 1-[(5-Chloro-2,4-dihydroxypyrimidin-6-yl)methyl]pyridinium chloride, was identified as the best inhibitor being 5-fold more potent
