Abstract
Previous studies had suggested that methotrexate (MTX) may have actions other than inhibition of dihydrofolic acid reductase. In this study MTX was added to the assay incubation mixture of the enzyme thymidylate synthetase. 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FUdR) or folinic acid was added separately as controls. The three compounds inhibited thymidylate synthetase with MTX achieving the maximal inhibition. It is suggested that MTX could exert its antineoplastic effect through this mechanism especially if malignant cells have little or no activity of dihydrofolic acid reductase.
