flucytosine and Neoplasm Metastasis

flucytosine has been researched along with Neoplasm Metastasis in 3 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.

Neoplasm Metastasis: The transfer of a neoplasm from one organ or part of the body to another remote from the primary site.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In a hepatic metastasis model, mice treated with an intravenous administration of both AdCD (2 x 10(8) pfu) and an intermediate dose of AdmIL-2 (1 x 10(6) pfu) demonstrated the most significant reduction of metastatic foci and the longest survival following a 5-FC administration."1.31Dose of adenoviral vectors expressing interleukin-2 plays an important role in combined gene therapy with cytosine deaminase/5-fluorocytosine: preclinical consideration. ( Hamada, H; Iwahashi, M; Nakamori, M; Terasawa, H; Tsunoda, T; Ueda, K; Yamaue, H, 2002)
"The growth of the human colon cancer cells was quantified by dot blot analysis of genomic DNA extracted from tumor-bearing liver, hybridized with a human-specific Alu probe."1.29Regional delivery of an adenovirus vector containing the Escherichia coli cytosine deaminase gene to provide local activation of 5-fluorocytosine to suppress the growth of colon carcinoma metastatic to liver. ( Crystal, RG; Hirschowitz, EA; Ohwada, A, 1996)
