dihydrouracil and Neoplasms

dihydrouracil has been researched along with Neoplasms in 8 studies

hexahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione: structure in first source
5,6-dihydrouracil : A pyrimidine obtained by formal addition of hydrogen across the 5,6-position of uracil.

Neoplasms: New abnormal growth of tissue. Malignant neoplasms show a greater degree of anaplasia and have the properties of invasion and metastasis, compared to benign neoplasms.
