General description
5-Fluorouridine (FUrd) is a fluoropyrimidine nucleoside analog and a cell-permeable modified RNA precursor.
Application
5-Fluorouridine has been used for labeling active transcription sites in the porcine fetal fibroblasts and human cell lines for immunocytochemistry analysis. It has also been used to monitor apoptosis during drug sensitivity assay in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
5-Fluorouridine (FUrd) is cytotoxic towards cancer cells. FUrd is often used in chemical and biochemical comparison studies with fluorouracil and thymine analogs.

The effects of 5-fluorouridine (FUrd) and 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUrd) substitution on the stabilities of duplex RNA and DNA have been studied to determine how FUrd substitution in nucleic acids may alter the efficiency of biochemical processes that require complementary base pairing

A series of 6-substituted and 5-fluoro-6-substituted uridine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential as anticancer agents. The designed molecules were synthesized from either fully protected uridine or the corresponding 5-fluorouridine derivatives. The mononucleotide derivatives were used for enzyme
