Cytosine deaminase (CD) activates prodrug 5-FC to 5-FU and is used for suicide gene therapy (the CD/5-FC system). E. coli uracil phosphoribosyltransferase (UPRT) is a pyrimidine salvage enzyme that directly converts 5-FU into 5-fluorouridine monophosphate and improves the antitumoral effect of 5-FU. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of transduction of the UPRT gene in addition to CD/5-FC cancer suicide gene therapy.
