Uridine is a molecule (known as a nucleoside) that is formed when uracil is attached to a ribose ring (also known as a ribofuranose) via a β-N1-glycosidic bond.


If uracil is attached to a deoxyribose ring, it is known as a deoxyuridine.

Patent 6,020,146 (1973 words)
fibroblast cells to said suspected carcinogen, agglomerating the treated cells; incubating the agglomerated cells with a deoxyuridine analog; labeling the cells which have incorporated the deoxyuridine analog with an antibody to the deoxyuridine analog; and quantitating the amount of cells incorporating the deoxyuridine analog.
By deoxyuridine analog is meant a derivative of a deoxyuridine, which is incorporated by a cell transformed by a carcinogen but not incorporated by untransformed spheroid cells.
(c) administrating a deoxyuridine analog and a thymidilate synthetase inhibitor to said agglomerated cell sample, wherein said deoxyuridine analog is a halogenated deoxyuridine which is incorporated by cells transformed by a carcinogen and is not incorporated byuntransformed spheroid cells;
Anti-herpes simplex virus activity of 5-alkoxymethyl-2'-deoxycytidimes and their 5-monophosphates - Patent 4990499 (7556 words)
In contrast, deoxyuridine analogues are rapidly catabolized to pyrimidine bases by thymidine phosphorylase (Veres et al., 1986).
The cytotoxicity of deoxyuridine analogues is due to inhibition of thymidylate synthase by their corresponding monophosphates (DeClercq et al., 1982).
Penetration of MMdCyd in the CNS should be greater than its corresponding deoxyuridine derivative, 5-methoxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine, because of its greater lipid solubility.
