Colchicine Alkaloids, and Synthetic Analogues: Current Progress and Perspectives.
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2020Colchicine, the main alkaloid of Colchicum autumnale, is one of the most famous natural molecules. Although colchicine belongs to the oldest drugs (being in use since 1500 BC), its pharmacological potential as a lead structure is not yet fully exploited.

Colchicine is used chiefly in the treatment of gout but is also valuable in other inflammatory diseases such as familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Three proteins play pivotal roles in colchicine pharmacokinetics: the colchicine receptor, tubulin, which governs the plasma elimination half-life of the drug; intestinal and hepatic CYP3A4, which is key to

Purified from a Mediterranean plant nearly two centuries ago, colchicine has been discovered to inhibit many steps in the inflammatory process. The drug has good oral bioavailability and some enterohepatic recirculation, requiring dose adjustments for kidney disease and avoidance in liver disease. Toxicities are primarily gastrointestinal, hepatic, and

Colchicine is one of the oldest available drugs. It has been used for centuries to treat and prevent gouty attacks and more recently to prevent attacks of autoinflammatory diseases such as Familial Mediterranean Fever. Its main mechanism of action is the capability to block the polymerization of tubulin, thus affecting the function of microtubules. The

Colchicine myopathy typically presents as painless muscle weakness. This report describes a post renal-transplant patient who presented with pain in both extremities bilaterally that was refractory to narcotic analgesics. He had been on low dose daily colchicine for 7 years. Laboratory, EMG, and biopsy findings all supported the diagnosis of colchicine

Studies on Colchicine, Colchicine Derivatives, and Endotoxin in Irradiated Animals
Radiation Research, 1962Colchicine when given 3, 2, or 1 day and trimethylcolchicinic acid methyl ether, colchiceinamide, colchiceine, and N-acetylcolchinol when given 1 day before irradiation caused an increase in survival of mice, provided they were more than 7 weeks old and the radiation dose one which causes death in approximately 1 to 4 weeks.

Colchicine poisoning is an unusual but serious form of drug intoxication. Although relatively uncommon, colchicine poisoning may produce life-threatening systemic effects that must be recognized and treated by the emergency physician. This alkaloid found in Colchicum autumnale is used primarily in the treatment of gout.
