Effect of Skimmed Milk on the Absorption and Metabolism of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) in Animals
Several modalities of drug administration have been investigated to improve bioavailability and to reduce 5-FU related toxicity. The aim of present study was to evaluate the effect of skimmed milk on the absorption and metabolism of 5-FU in rabbits, mice and dogs. It was further aimed to determine its route related toxicity in rabbits. Plasma concentration of both 5-FU and its metabolit...

متن کاملIn-vitro Characterization and Cytotoxicity Analysis of 5- Fluorouracil loaded Chitosan Microspheres for Targeting Colon Cancer
The objectives of the present investigation were to prepare the 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) loaded chitosan microspheres for colon targeting and its in vitro cytotoxicity analysis on HT-29 human colon cancer cell lines. Chitosan microspheres prepared by the emulsion polymerization method were analyzed for morphology, mean particle size, drug polymer interaction, entrapment efficiency, in vitro drug r...
متن کاملFluorescence-Guided Resection of Malignant Glioma with 5-ALA
Malignant gliomas are extremely difficult to treat with no specific curative treatment. On the other hand, photodynamic medicine represents a promising technique for neurosurgeons in the treatment of malignant glioma. The resection rate of malignant glioma has increased from 40% to 80% owing to 5-aminolevulinic acid-photodynamic diagnosis (ALA-PDD). Furthermore, ALA is very useful because it ha...
متن کاملPhotoirradiation therapy of experimental malignant glioma with 5-aminolevulinic acid.
OBJECT Accumulation of protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) in malignant gliomas is induced by 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA). Because PPIX is a potent photosensitizer, the authors sought to discover whether its accumulation might be exploited for use in photoirradiation therapy of experimental brain tumors, without injuring normal or edematous brain. METHODS Thirty rats underwent craniotomy and were rand...
