more
Colchicine is a toxic natural product and secondary metabolite , originally extracted from plants of the genus Colchicum ( Autumn crocus , Colchicum autumnale , also known as the "Meadow saffron"). Originally used to treat rheumatic complaints and especially gout , it was also prescribed for its cathartic and emetic effects. Its present medicinal use is mainly in the treatment of gout; as well, it is being investigated for its potential use as an anti- cancer drug. It can also be used as initial treatment for pericarditis and preventing recurrences of the condition. In neurons, axoplasmic transport is disrupted by colchicine.
