Chemische Eigenschaften
Light yellow to yellow solid
Verwenden
antianemic, antidote to folic acid antagonists.
Calcium folinate (folinic acid, calcium leucovorin, tetrahydrofolate) can be used in the management of methotrexate overdose and to reduce the toxicity of high-dose methotrexate chemotherapy.Calcium folinate is a reduced form of folic acid, which bypasses the inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase by methotrexate.Calcium folinate also has a role in combination with fluorouracil in the treatment of bowel cancer, where its use enhances the effect of fluorouracil by inhibition of thymidilate synthase.
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.
Mechanism of action
The mechanism of action of Calcium folinate against cancer is to stabilise the complex between 5-FU and thymidylate synthase, thereby enhancing the cytotoxicity of 5-FU, a pyrimidine analogue and inhibitor of thymidylate synthase, which blocks DNA production. Thymidylate synthase converts deoxyuridine monophosphate to thymine monophosphate. Administration of 5-FU reduces deoxythymidine monophosphate, preventing DNA synthesis and leading to cell death.
