Biochem/physiol Actions
Raltitrexed is a folate-based inhibitor of thymidylate synthase (TS) that is rapidly and extensively metabolized to its more potent polyglutamate derivatives.
Raltitrexed is a folate-based inhibitor of thymidylate synthase (TS) that is rapidly and extensively metabolized to its more potent polyglutamate derivatives. By inhibiting the formation of precursor pyrimidine nucleotides, raltitrexed prevents the formation of DNA and RNA, which are required for the growth and survival of both normal cells and cancer cells.
