fluorouracil and Diabetic Feet

fluorouracil has been researched along with Diabetic Feet in 4 studies

Fluorouracil: A pyrimidine analog that is an antineoplastic antimetabolite. It interferes with DNA synthesis by blocking the THYMIDYLATE SYNTHETASE conversion of deoxyuridylic acid to thymidylic acid.
5-fluorouracil : A nucleobase analogue that is uracil in which the hydrogen at position 5 is replaced by fluorine. It is an antineoplastic agent which acts as an antimetabolite - following conversion to the active deoxynucleotide, it inhibits DNA synthesis (by blocking the conversion of deoxyuridylic acid to thymidylic acid by the cellular enzyme thymidylate synthetase) and so slows tumour growth.

"Effects of a single administration of small doses of 5-fluorouracil on results of skin plasty for syndrome of the diabetic foot were studied in 61 patients who had undergone local operations for pyo-necrotic diseases of the foot against the background of diabetes mellitus."5.12[Effects of short-term immunosuppression on the engraftment of skin transplants at syndrome of the diabetic foot].
