floxuridine and Bloom Syndrome

floxuridine has been researched along with Bloom Syndrome in 3 studies

Floxuridine: An antineoplastic antimetabolite that is metabolized to fluorouracil when administered by rapid injection; when administered by slow, continuous, intra-arterial infusion, it is converted to floxuridine monophosphate. It has been used to treat hepatic metastases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas and for palliation in malignant neoplasms of the liver and gastrointestinal tract.
floxuridine : A pyrimidine 2'-deoxyribonucleoside compound having 5-fluorouracil as the nucleobase; used to treat hepatic metastases of gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas and for palliation in malignant neoplasms of the liver and gastrointestinal tract.

Bloom Syndrome: An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by telangiectatic ERYTHEMA of the face, photosensitivity, DWARFISM and other abnormalities, and a predisposition toward developing cancer. The Bloom syndrome gene (BLM) encodes a RecQ-like DNA helicase.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effect of cell fusion and deoxynucleosides (deoxyadenosine, dA; deoxyguanosine, dG; deoxycytidine, dC; thymidine, T) on sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in Bloom syndrome (BS) was studied in two types of BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine)-sensitive and BrdU-resistant B-lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) with respect to cellular proliferation in BrdU-labeled culture conditions."3.67Effects of cell fusion and deoxynucleosides on sister-chromatid exchanges in B-lymphoblastoid cell lines from 5 Bloom syndrome patients.
