REAL-TIME OBSERVATION OF MOLECULAR REACTION MECHANISM OF HALOPYRIMIDINES AS RADIO-/PHOTOSENSITIZING DRUGS USING TIME-RESOLVED FEMTOSECOND LASER SPECTROSCOPY

Replacement of thymidine in DNA by halopyrimidines, such as bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) and iododeoxyuridine (IdU), has long been known to enhance DNA damage and cell death induced by ionizing/UV radiation, but the mechanism of action of halopyrimidines at the molecular level is poorly understood. We h...
