Colchicum kesselringii is a perennial herb belonging to the Colchicaceae family and is widely distributed in Central Asia. Plants of the genus Colchicum are well known for their rich content of biologically active alkaloids, particularly colchicine and its derivatives. These alkaloids exhibit a wide range of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antimitotic, and anticancer effects. This article reviews the major alkaloids identified in Colchicum kesselringii and discusses their pharmacological properties and potential therapeutic applications.
