Özet

Background: Colchicine, a tricyclic alkaloid, is commonly used in treatment due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects. Besides its toxicity at high doses, colchicine is reported for its potential anticancer effects at lower concentrations. The present study aimed to evaluate the anticancer effects of colchicine in SW480 cells.
