    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Pharmacology
    • Computational Biology

    Background:

    • Folate and nucleotide metabolism are crucial for DNA synthesis.
    • Anticancer drugs often target these pathways.
    • Understanding these complex interactions is vital for drug development.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a computational model simulating folate and nucleotide metabolism.
    • To investigate the biochemical pharmacology of anticancer drugs.
    • To model drug effects on cell growth over extended periods.

    Main Methods:

    • Detailed simulation of biochemical pathways for short durations.
    • Steady-state approximation for modeling longer time periods (days).
    • Integration of drug effects into metabolic simulations.

    Main Results:

    • The model successfully simulates folate and nucleotide metabolism.
    • Demonstrated utility in studying anticancer drug mechanisms.
    • Facilitated prediction of drug-induced changes in cell growth.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed model is a valuable tool for biochemical pharmacology research.
    • It enables the study of drug effects on DNA precursor biosynthesis and cell proliferation.
    • The model supports both short-term mechanistic studies and long-term growth simulations.
