A possible role of thymidine phosphorylase expression and5-fluorouracil increased sensitivity in oropharyngeal cancer patients

Thymidine Pi deoxyribosyltransferase (TP) is an enzyme involved in DNA synthesis up-regulated in tumours and it is also a pro-angiogenic factor. TP cannot activate capecitabine, because capecitabine first needs conversion by carboxylesterase and cytidine deaminase into 5-deoxy-fluorouridine. This co...
