Novel Active Homo-Aza (Lactam) Steroidal Antimetabolites for the Treatment of Human Pancreatic and Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
Background: Colorectal and pancreatic cancers remain therapeutically challenging, with limitations in efficacy and limitations due to toxicity from conventional antimetabolites such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), methotrexate (MTX), and gemcitabine (GEM ...

Functional and genetic evidence that nucleoside transport is highly conserved in Leishmania species: Implications for pyrimidine-based chemotherapy [PDF]
Leishmania pyrimidine salvage is replete with opportunities for therapeutic intervention with enzyme inhibitors or antimetabolites. Their uptake into cells depends upon specific transporters; therefore it is essential to establish whether various ...

Development of a high-throughput label-free method for enrichment of antimetabolite-resistant yeast strains using pico-litre agarose beads [PDF]
Antimetabolites, which are structural analogues of metabolites or carbon sources that exhibit toxicity by disrupting metabolism, can couple phenotypes of interest to growth and thereby facilitate the selection of relevant strains from large mutant pools ...
