A novel large intragenic DPYD deletion causing dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency: a case report

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics
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.

Implementation and feasibility of DPYD-guided fluoropyrimidine use in a gastrointestinal oncology clinic at an academic medical center

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
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

NGS resolved two cases of discrepancy between DPYD phenotype and genotype by identifying two rare DPYD variants

open access: yes
International audienceIntroduction: The enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is the predominant catabolic pathway for fluoropyrimidines including 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and capecitabine.

Case report: A case of severe capecitabine toxicity due to confirmed in trans compound heterozygosity of a common and rare DPYD variant

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Variations in the activity of the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) are associated with toxicity to fluoropyrimidine-containing chemotherapy.

P53 represses pyrimidine catabolic gene dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD) expression in response to thymidylate synthase (TS) targeting

open access: yes, 2017
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

open access: yesPharmaceutics
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.

A predictive model for life-threatening fluoropyrimidine toxicity based on DPYD sequencing in colorectal cancer

open access: yes
Background: Deleterious DPYD variants are the primary identified cause of severe fluoropyrimidine-related toxicity. The objective was to improve the sensitivity of current DPYD genotyping recommendations and develop a predictive model for severe toxicity.
