Orotate phosphoribosyltransferase expression level in tumors is a potential determinant of the efficacy of 5-fluorouracil.
Although the intratumoral expression levels of thymidylate synthase (TS) and dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) are known to affect the antitumor activity of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), the importance of orotate phosphoribosyltransferase (OPRT) has remained unclear. This study investigated the relatio...
