flucytosine and Glioblastoma with Sarcomatous Component

flucytosine has been researched along with Glioblastoma with Sarcomatous Component in 5 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The presence of transfected cytosine deaminase and thymidine kinase genes in 9L gliosarcoma cells reduced cell survival, both in vitro and in vivo, following treatment with the relevant prodrugs; the effects of the two components appeared to be synergistic and related mechanistically to the enhancement of ganciclovir phosphorylation by thymidine kinase following 5-fluorouracil treatment."3.70Synergistic anticancer effects of ganciclovir/thymidine kinase and 5-fluorocytosine/cytosine deaminase gene therapies.
