5-Fluorouracil

CAS No. : 51-21-8

Biological Activity:5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is an analogue of uracil and a potent antitumor agent. 5-Fluorouracil affects pyrimidine synthesis by inhibiting thymidylate synthetase thus depleting intracellular dTTP pools. 5-Fluorouracil induces apoptosis and can be used as a chemical sensitizer[2]. 5-Fluorouracil also inhibits HIV[3].

Research Area:Cancer
