Transdermal delivery of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) by 1-alkylcarbonyl-5-FU prodrugs

International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 1996
The members of a series of 1-alkylcarbonyl-5-FU prodrug derivatives have been characterized and evaluated for their abilities to deliver 5-FU into and through skin. There was no correlation of lipid solubility or partition coefficient with relative abilities of the members of the 1-alkylcarbonyl series to deliver 5-FU through skin. However, there was a

Macropinocytosis confers resistance to therapies targeting cancer anabolism. [PDF]

, 2020
Macropinocytic cancer cells scavenge amino acids from extracellular proteins. Here, we show that consuming necrotic cell debris via macropinocytosis (necrocytosis) offers additional anabolic benefits.

NRASQ61R Expression in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Causes Enlarged Vessels, Hemorrhagic Chylous Effusions, and High Mortality in a Mouse Model of Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.
