Assessment of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase dimer formation in human liver samples
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency is a rare inheritable genetic disorder that increases the risk of severe to life-threatening toxicity following treatment of the anticancer drug 5-fluorouracil. Pre-screening patients with a panel of variants in

Subcellular Localization of Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase
Although dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) has been purified and characterized from liver tissues of various mammals conflicting data exist on its subcellular localization. To determine the localization of DPD we prepared crude subcellular fractions of a rat liver homogenate by means of differential centrifugation.

Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency and acute neurological presentation
AbstractDihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency has been linked to 5‐fluorouracil toxicity, but patients may present a wide clinical spectrum. We describe a 1‐year‐old Tunisian girl with a dramatic onset of neurological symptoms suggesting the possible triggering role of environmental factors.

Head imaging abnormalities in dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency
AbstractSummary: Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of pyrimidine metabolism. Patients may present with a wide range of neurological symptoms during the first years of life. Head imaging abnormalities have been reported only rarely and include diffuse cerebral atrophy and white‐matter hyperintensity.

Dihydropyrimidine Dehydrogenase Gene as a Major Predictor of Severe 5-Fluorouracil Toxicity
The importance of polymorphisms in the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) gene (DPYD) for the prediction of severe toxicity in 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) based chemotherapy has been controversially debated. As a key enzyme in the catabolism of 5-FU, DPD is
