2022-09-14
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Aim To synthesize novel uracil derivatives targeting thymidylate synthase for the treatment of high-grade malignancies such as breast cancer. Background Cell division is driven by nucleic acid metabolism, and thymidylate synthase (TYMS) catalyses a rate-limiting step in nucleotide synthesis. As a result, TYMS has emerged as a critical target in chemotherapy. 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is c...
