The folic acid group: The discovery of Methotrexate and some of the other antimetabolic agents that are currently being used for the treatment of neoplastic disease is a long and colorful epic, beginning about thirty years ago. The development of these “folic acid analogs” was intimately tied in with the elucidation of one of the B complex vitamins, folic acid. Folic acid (pteroylglutamic acid) is found in many natural materials.
