Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Eniluracil (59989-18-3) is an irreversible dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) inhibitor.1-3? DPD is involved in the degradation of pyrimidine-based chemotherapeutic drugs such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU).? Eniluracil has been used along with 5-FU to prolong circulating concentrations of the drug. | [Uses]
Potent inactivator of Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). | [Definition]
ChEBI: Eniluracil is a pyrimidone. | [in vivo]
Eniluracil (5-Ethynyluracil) (1 mg/kg; i.p.; single daily for 3 days) exhibits neither toxicity nor intrinsic antitumor activity, and greatly improves FUra (5-fluorouracil) therapy in rats[1]. Animal Model: | Female Fischer 344/HSD rats (6 to 7-week-old; 150-200 g)[1]. | Dosage: | 1 mg/kg | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection; single daily for 3 days (l h before FUra (5-fluorouracil) and for an additional 2 days after FUra therapy) | Result: | Produced complete tumor regression that was sustained for at least 90 days posttherapy when combined with 3.5 mg/kg FUra, however, 35 mg/kg FUra alone produced partial responses in 75% of the treated animals ( the tumors regrew in all of these animals). |
