Ribonucleotides Amplify Mitochondrial DNA-Driven cGAS-STING Activation via FdUMP-ribonucleotide Hybrid Particles to Potentiate Chemoimmunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
This work develops a metabolic sharing strategy that employs cytidine monophosphate (CMP) to competitively reprogram floxuridine (FUDR) pyrimidine metabolism in colorectal tumor cells. Elevated intracellular FdUMP induces nucleotide imbalance, drives mitochondrial DNA release and cGAS‐STING innate immune cascade activation, and potentiates robust ...

DPYD and UGT1A1 Genotype-Based Dosing for Fluoropyrimidines and Irinotecan Chemotherapy: Variant-Specific Impact on Treatment Intensity and Toxicity. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Cancer
Pre‐treatment DPYD and UGT1A1 genotyping is increasingly used to prevent fluoropyrimidine‐ and irinotecan‐related toxicity, but variant‐specific real‐world effects remain unclear. In an unselected cohort of cancer patients with actionable genotypes, genotype‐driven dosing improved safety while preserving treatment exposure in high‐risk DPYD c.1905+1G>A

DPYD-guided fluoropyrimidine dose adjustment in colorectal cancer DPYD carriers: start slower to finish stronger [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
IntroductionFluoropyrimidines (FP) are the mainstay of colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment, but can cause severe toxicity in up to 40% of patients. Variants in the DPYD gene are associated with these adverse events.

Balance of care activity after EMA recommendation for DPYD gene testing in Galicia [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
IntroductionSince April 2020, pretherapeutic screening for accessing the deficiency of the DPD enzyme by genotyping the dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase gene (DPYD) is required by the European Medicine Agency (EMA) prior to the administration of ...

Identification of TgENT1 as the TgUUT1 Uracil/Uridine Transporter of Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens
The protozoan pathogen Toxoplasma gondii is responsible for toxoplasmosis, a disease that can be deadly in immunocompromised patients and the developing fetus during pregnancy. Current treatments are widely considered to be suboptimal.

Survival outcomes of adjuvant taxanes, platinum plus fluoropyrimidines versus platinum and fluoropyrimidines for gastric cancer patients after D2 gastrectomy: a retrospective propensity score-matched analysis

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2021
Background To evaluate whether the addition of taxanes to platinum and fluoropyrimidines in adjuvant chemotherapy would result in longer survival than platinum plus fluoropyrimidines in gastric cancer patients who received D2 gastrectomy. Methods Data of
