Background: Common wart is one of the most prevalent skin diseases, caused by human papilloma virus. Numerous therapeutic modalities have been used in the treatment of warts. Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate and compare the efficacy of 5% 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) ointment with cryotherapy in the treatment of common warts of hands. Patients and Methods: In a single blind, prosp...

Objectives To analyse whether there is a difference in marginal bone levels (MBL) and the respective changes between cemented screw-retained reconstructions at 3 5 years of loading. Methods Radiographic data from 14 prospective multicentre clinical trials following implant loading with fixed (CEM) or (SCREW) 3- to 5-year follow-up were retrieved database. MBL assessed initiation (BL), (FU-3) (F...

The objective of the study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of 5-FU entrapped pH-sensitive liposomal nanoparticles with surface-modified anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody (pHLNps-5-FU) delivery system. Cytotoxicity of 5-FU and pHLNps-5-FU was determined in vitro against HCT-116 cells. The biodistribution and pharmacokinetic parameters of the administered ...

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is an anticancer drug. In this work, we have investigated the electronic properties and topological analysis of interaction between 5-FU and carbon nanocone and BN nanocone. The structural stability of isomer complexes of 5-FU with carbon nanocone and BN nanocone have been investigated for two position of interactions. We have found that the most stable complexes are forme...

Understanding the mechanism of tumor resistance is critical for cancer therapy. In this study, we investigated the effect of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) overexpression on UV-and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-induced apoptosis and autophagy in colorectal cancer cells. We used histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, NaB and DNA demethylating agent, 5- azacytidine (5-AZA) to induce CEA expression in HT29...

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a key anticancer drug that for its broad antitumor activity, as well as for its synergism with other anticancer drugs, has been used to treat various types of malignancies. In chemotherapeutic regimens, 5-FU has been combined with oxaliplatin, irinotecan and other drugs as a continuous intravenous infusion. Recent clinical chemotherapy studies have shown that several of...

5-Ethynyluracil (5-EU; 776C85) is a potent mechanism-based inactivator of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase that improves the antitumor activity of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to a greater extent than can be accounted for by the improved 5-FU pharmacokinetics that result from preventing the catabolism of 5-FU. We therefore tested the effects of (R)-5-fluoro-5,6-dihydrouracil (5-FUH2), the 5-FU cataboli...
