## Abstract Cytotoxic effect of 5‐fluorouracil 5‐FU is mediated through inhibition of thymidylate synthase (TS), and 5‐FU is catabolised by dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). Efficacy of 5‐FU may therefore depend on the TS and DPD activity of colorectal cancer. Archival tumour specimens from 30

## Abstract Thymidylate synthase (TS) is the primary target of 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU). A VNTR polymorphism in the TS promoter region is associated with the efficacy of 5‐FU‐based chemotherapy in colorectal cancer. A common G>C SNP at the 12th nucleotide of the second repeat in the TS\*3 alleles has

Polymorphic variations may affect the rate of gene transcription, the stability of the mRNA, or the quantity and activity of the resulting protein. In this study we evaluated the association between the interleukin-1B C-31T, catechol-O-methyltransferase Val158Met, and thymidylate synthase (TS) 1494d

## Abstract Promoter hypermethylation of the __ADAM23__ gene, which is normally involved in cell‐to‐cell and cell‐to matrix adhesion, has been reported in pancreatic, breast and brain cancer, and recently the role of this gene was examined in gastric cancer. In this study, we analyzed __ADAM23__ ex

## Abstract While several studies have reported that thymidylate synthase (TS) tumour expression can be a reliable predictive marker of clinical response to 5‐Fluorouracil (5‐FU) for advanced colorectal cancer patients, only a few studies that searched for predictive factors of irinotecan (CPT‐11)
