Cellular pharmacokinetic of methotrexate and its modulation by folylpolyglutamate synthetase and γ-glutamyl hydrolase in tumor cells.

<h4>Background and purpose</h4>Clinical studies showed that prolonged infusion of methotrexate (MTX) leads to more severe adverse reactions than short infusion of MTX at the same dose. We hypothesized that it is the saturation of folate polyglutamate synthetase (FPGS) at high MTX concent...
