1. The metabolic fate of a new antitumour agent, 1-hexylcarbamoyl-5-fluoro [6-14C]uracil (14C-HCFU) in rats after oral administration was compared with that of 5-fluoro[6-14C]uracil (14C-FU). 2. Tissue radioactivity reached a max. 1 to 3 h after administration of 14C-HCFU and 0.5 h after 14C-FU. 3. Both drugs were excreted rapidly, mostly in urine. Expired 14CO2 from 14C-HCFU was significantly less than that from 14C-FU. 4. Unchanged FU was not detected in plasma 3 h after administration of 14C-FU, whereas FU was detected in plasma 5 h after 14C-HCFU. The pyrimidine ring of 14C-HCFU might be degradated more slowly than that of 14C-FU. 5. 1-(5-Carboxypentylcarbamoyl)-5-fluorouracil and 1-(3-carboxypropylcarbamoyl)-5-fluorouracil were identified as the major urinary metabolites of 14C-HCFU.

D001711 Biotransformation The chemical alteration of an exogenous substance by or in a biological system. The alteration may inactivate the compound or it may result in the production of an active metabolite of an inactive parent compound. The alterations may be divided into METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE I and METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE II.
D014018 Tissue Distribution Accumulation of a drug or chemical substance in various organs (including those not relevant to its pharmacologic or therapeutic action). This distribution depends on the blood flow or perfusion rate of the organ, the ability of the drug to penetrate organ membranes, tissue specificity, protein binding. The distribution is usually expressed as tissue to plasma ratios. Distribution, Tissue,Distributions, Tissue,Tissue Distributions
