Part Description
LP201702-0 5,6-Dihydrouracil
5,6-dihydrouracil is the product of the first step in uracil catabolism, and the pattern of the levels of uracil, 5,6-dihydrouracil and other products of uracil catabolism can be used to diagnose defects pyrimidine degradation pathway enzymes. For example, patients with complete dihydropyrimidinase deficiency have significantly elevated 5,6-dihydrouracil and moderately elevated uracil in urine. For patients with cancer, the toxicity of 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy can be predicted based on the 5,6-dihydrouracil/uracil plasma ratio. PMID: 14709662
