flucytosine and Colorectal Neoplasms

flucytosine has been researched along with Colorectal Neoplasms in 26 studies

Flucytosine: A fluorinated cytosine analog that is used as an antifungal agent.
flucytosine : An organofluorine compound that is cytosine that is substituted at position 5 by a fluorine. A prodrug for the antifungal 5-fluorouracil, it is used for the treatment of systemic fungal infections.

Colorectal Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the COLON or the RECTUM or both. Risk factors for colorectal cancer include chronic ULCERATIVE COLITIS; FAMILIAL POLYPOSIS COLI; exposure to ASBESTOS; and irradiation of the CERVIX UTERI.

( An, P; Cai, H; Chen, G; Guo, W; Li, S; Yu, B, 2002)
"These results suggest that (1) intrahepatic cancer responds to 5FC when cells express yCD; (2) the luciferin-luciferase system permits non-invasive real time imaging of viable intrahepatic cancer; and (3) this system can be used to carry out gene therapy experiments using yCD adenovirus."1.31The potential of 5-fluorocytosine/cytosine deaminase enzyme prodrug gene therapy in an intrahepatic colon cancer model. ( Dornfeld, KJ; Kievit, E; Lawrence, TS; Nyati, MK; Rehemtulla, A; Ross, BD; Rynkiewicz, SD; Symon, Z, 2002)
