The correlation between thymidine phosphorylase (dThd-Pase) expression and invasion phenotype in human uterine cervical carcinoma cells was investigated using 10 cervical carcinoma cell lines. Semi-quantitative reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction analysis was performed to investigate the

## Background: Experimental evidence has shown that thymidine phosphorylase (dthdpase) is identical to platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor (pd-ecgf) and has angiogenic activity. the enzymatic activity of dthdpase was needed for the angiogenesis by the enzyme. these observations were cat
## Abstract Uridine phosphorylase (UPase) and an angiogenic enzyme, thymidine phosphorylase (dThdPase) are involved in degradation of the pyrimidine nucleosides through phosphorolysis. The expression levels of UPase and dThdPase are higher in human solid tumors including breast carcinomas than in n
The purpose of the present study was to examine directly the role of thymidine phosphorylase (TP) in the sensitivity of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to a novel fluoropyrimidine carbamate, capecitabine. TP cDNA-transfected RCC are used in these experiments to provide a basis for improved therapeutic be
