Thymidylate synthase levels in tumor biopsies from patients with colorectal cancer.

Abstract:

:Catalytic activity and FdUMP binding characteristics of thymidylate synthase (TS) were determined in 22 tumor biopsies of patients to be treated (15) or just treated (7) for colorectal cancer with 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin. In 19 samples both parameters could be determined and were found to represent a wide range (15-20 fold). High values of activity correlated with no response, but low values of binding or activity were found in responders as well as in non-responders. It is concluded that the determination of parameters related to TS function is feasible in tumor biopsies and its relevance for clinical management deserves further study.

  • Amentoflavone Enhances the Therapeutic Efficacy of Sorafenib by Inhibiting Anti-apoptotic Potential and Potentiating Apoptosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma In Vivo.

    abstract:BACKGROUND/AIM:In a previous study, we showed that amentoflavone promotes sorafenib-induced apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells in vitro. However, whether amentoflavone augments anticancer efficacy of sorafenib in HCC in vivo is unknown. The aim of the present study was to verify the anticancer effect of ...
