Azauracil is a synthetic pyrimidine analog that acts as an inhibitor of orotate phosphoribosyltransferase, an enzyme involved in the de novo synthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides. Azauracil has been investigated as a potential anticancer agent and has demonstrated antitumor activity in preclinical studies. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting DNA and RNA synthesis, thereby disrupting cell growth and proliferation. Studies have explored its use in treating various cancers, including leukemia, lymphoma, and solid tumors. However, clinical trials have shown limited success due to its significant side effects. Further research is ongoing to optimize its therapeutic potential and minimize toxicity.'
