Description

Thiocolchicine is a colchicine-derivative used in the therapy of some diseases and extensively studied in the field of oncological research as antimitotic agent. It is tubulin polymerization and microtubule assembly inhibitor and axonal cytoskeleton modulator; apoptosis inducer. Thiocolchicine-dimers were shown to be potent topoisomerase I inhibitors. Thiocolchicine is a potential antitumor agent.
