GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 1311459
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Nkd2
Name: NKD inhibitor of WNT signaling pathway 2
Acc ID: CHEBI:72564
Term: temozolomide
Definition: An imidazotetrazine that is 3,4-dihydroimidazo[5,1-d][1,2,3,5]tetrazine which is substituted at positions 3, 4, and 8 by methyl, oxo, and carboxamide groups, respectively. A prodrug for MTIC (5-(3-methyltriaz-1-en-1-yl)-1H-imidazole-4-carboxamide, formed by spontaneous hydrolysis of temozolomide in the body), it is used as an oral alkylating agent for the treatment of newly diagnosed malignant glioblastoma multiforme (concomitantly with radiotherapy) and malignant melanoma.
Chemical ID: MESH:C047246
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
