To investigate the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of the DNA alkylating agnet, mitomycin C and the antimetabolite, 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) in cultured rat fibroblasts, the colorimetric assay of netural red (NR) for cytotoxicity and for genotoxicity, sister chromatid exchange (SCE) assay and the measurement of the rate of DNA synthesis were performed in cells cultured in media containing various concentrations of mitomycin C and 5-FU. The uptake ability of neutral red decreased does-dependently. NR90 and NR50 values of mitomycin C were 1.49 nM and 6.87mM and 5-FU were 38.4mM AND 284.4Mm respectively.

Geraniol (1), olivetol (2), cannabinoids (3 and 4) and 5-fluorouracil (5) were tested for their growth inhibitory effects against human oral epitheloid carcinoma cell lines (KB) and NIH 3T3 fibrobalsts using two different 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and sulforhodamine B protein (SRB) assay. Cannabigerol (3) exhibited the highest growth-inhibitory activity against the cancer cell lines.

A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network.

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), an anticancer agent was covalently attached to the recently developed sorbitol-based G8 transporter, and the conjugate (7) with FITC was found to have an affinity toward mitochondria and to readily cross BBB to gain an entry into mouse brain. Measured by $IC_{50}$, the conjugate (9) without the fluorophore showed enhanced cytotoxic activity toward two types of multidrug-resistant cell lines. These results strongly suggest that the sorbitol-based G8 transporter can be utilized as a good CNS delivery vector.

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), a pyrimidine antagonist, has a long history in cancer treatment. The targeted pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway includes dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), which converts 5-FU to an inactive metabolite, and thymidylate synthase (TS), which is a major target of 5-FU. Using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model system to study the functional and resistance mechanisms of anti-cancer drugs, we examined these two genes in order to determine the extent of molecular conservation between C. elegans and humans. Overexpression of the worm DPD and TS homologs (DPYD-1 and Y110A7A.4, respectively) suppressed germ cell death following 5-FU exposure. In addition, DPYD-1 depletion by RNAi resulted in 5-FU sensitivity, while treatment with Y110A7A.4 RNAi and 5-FU resulted in similar patterns of embryonic death. Thus, the pathway of 5-FU function appears to be highly conserved between C. elegans and humans at the molecular level.

Gemcitabine demonstrated modest activity in locally advanced and metastatic pancreatic cancer with difficulty early diagnosis and poor prognisis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil(GF) combination theraphy and epirubiciil, cisplatin. and 5-fluorouracil(ECF) combination theraphy for the patients with locally advanced or metaststic pancreatic cancer. Between January 1996 and December 2001, Patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer were selected and reviewed retrospectively at Kangnam St. Mary's Hospital. (omitted)
