## 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
