Background Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme in the catabolic pathway of pyrimidines. Deleterious variants in the DPYD gene cause DPD deficiency, a rare autosomal recessive disorder.

IntroductionGenetic variation in DPYD can result in reduced fluoropyrimidine (FP) metabolism and increased risk of severe toxicity. This DPYD test implementation pilot aimed to establish a feasible workflow for DPYD ordering sample collection and FP dose

Nucleotide metabolism in cancer cells can influence malignant behavior and intrinsic resistance to therapy. Here we describe p53-dependent control of the rate-limiting enzyme in the pyrimidine catabolic pathway, dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD) and

The Frequency of DPYD c.557A>G in the Dominican Population and Its Association with African Ancestry
Background/Objectives: Genetic polymorphism of the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase gene (DPYD) is responsible for the variability found in the metabolism of fluoropyrimidines such as 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), capecitabine, or tegafur.
