Possible Interaction: Dehydroepiandrosterone and Floxuridine

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Exposure to dehydroepiandrosterone caused a concentration-dependent accumulation of HT-29 human colonic adenocarcinoma cells in S-phase and sensitization toward the cytotoxic effects of fluorouracil deoxyriboside but not 5-fluorouracil.
These effects were synergistic at all tested concentrations of dehydroepiandrosterone (25-100 microM) and fluorouracil deoxyriboside (0.1-10 microM).
These results and the non-toxic nature of this naturally occurring steroid suggest that dehydroepiandrosterone may be useful as a biochemical modulator of fluorouracil deoxyriboside and, perhaps, other nucleoside analogs in cancer treatment.
