floxuridine and Fra(X) Syndrome

floxuridine has been researched along with Fra(X) Syndrome in 21 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.

"The main clinical features are mental retardation, typical facial dysmorphism and macroorchidism."2.37[Mental retardation linked to fragility of chromosome X: current knowledge]. ( Auger, M; Giraud, F; Mattei, JF; Mattei, MG, 1984)
"Caffeine did not enhance the expression of the fra(X) in the PBLC or in the three LCL from fra(X) expressing individuals nor did it elicit fra(X) expression in LCL from a non-expressing obligate-carrier female and a transmitting male."1.27The effect of caffeine on fragile X expression.
