Biological Activity

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a chemotherapy compound that is a pyrimidine analog which is used in the treatment of cancer. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) works through noncompetitive inhibition of thymidylate synthase. Fluorouracil IC50 values were observed across the National Cancer Institute NCI60 panel of human tumor cell lines, which exhibit a mean IC50 of 17.6 μM, with a range of 1~501 μM.

In vivo, 5-Fluorouracil (23 mg/kg, 3 times/week) for 14 days, induces accelerated gastrointestinal transit associated with acute intestinal inflammation at day 3 after the start of treatment, which may have led to persistent changes in the ENS observed after days 7 and 14 of treatment contributing to delayed gastrointestinal transit and colonic dysmotility.

Dencatistat

Dencatistat (P115) is an inhibitor of Cytidine Triphosphate Synthase 1 (CTPS1) with an IC50 value of ≤ 0.1 μM.

Antipain dihydrochloride

Antipain dihydrochloride is a protease inhibitor. Antipain dihydrochloride inhibits N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced transformation and increases chromosomal aberrations. Antipain dihydrochloride also restricts uterine DNA synthesis and function in mice.

Tetrahydrouridine

Tetrahydrouridine (THU) is potent inhibitor of cytidine deaminase (CDA), which competitively blocks the enzyme's active site more effectively than intrinsic cytidine.

Crisnatol

Crisnatol (BWA770U) is a member of the arylmethylaminopropanediol class of DNA intercalators. Crisnatol shows in vitro cytotoxicity against human breast cancer cells. Crisnatol (BWA770U) is also an orally active and anticancer agent.

Caf1-IN-1

Caf1-IN-1 is inhibitor for ribonuclease Caf1 with an IC50 of 0.59 µM. Caf1-IN-1 is also a weak inhibitor for poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) with IC50 of 23.9 µM.
