5-Fluorouracil, 5-fluorouridine (FUrd), 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (FdUrd), 5-fluorocytidine (FCyd), 5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine (FdCyd), 5-trifluoro-2'-deoxythymidine (F3dThd), and the 5'-monophosphates and 3',5'-cyclic monophosphates thereof were found to inhibit thymidine kinase-deficient (TK-) mutant strains of herpes simplex virus (HSV) at a much lower concentration than the wild-type

In vivo, the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, 5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine (FdCyd, NSC-48006), is rapidly converted to its unwanted metabolites. Tetrahydrouridine (THU, NSC-112907), a cytidine deaminase inhibitor can block the first metabolic step in FdCyd catabolism. Clinical studies have shown that co-administration with THU
M Iigo et al.

The plasma concentration of 5-fluorouracil (FUra) following the i.v. administration of FUra and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) or guanosine 5'-triphosphate (GTP) was markedly elevated. These values were more than 5-fold higher than those obtained with FUra alone over 60 min after

Treatment of C57BL X DBA/2 F (hereafter called BD2F) mice bearing ascitic mammary adenocarcinoma-755 (ADC-755) with [3H]-5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine ([3H]FdCyd) plus tetrahydrouridine (H4Urd) resulted in antimetabolite pool sizes indicative of a tumor-selective, dual pathway metabolism of FdCyd via both cytidine deaminase and

The mechanisms that establish and maintain methylation patterns in the mammalian genome are very poorly understood, even though perturbations of methylation patterns lead to a loss of genomic imprinting, ectopic X chromosome inactivation, and death of mammalian embryos. A family
