[Colchicinoids--their toxicity and biological activity]
1Institut für Gerichtsmedizin und medizinisches Recht, Medizinische Fakultät, Palacký Universität, Olomouc, Ischechische Republik.
Abstract:
The cytotoxicity of 32 colchicinoids in isolated rat hepatocytes was studied. Their effect was examined by biochemical parameters-lactate dehydrogenase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, lipid peroxidation and by changes in reduced glutathione level. Only compounds with methylsulfonyl group at C-10 were significantly hepatotoxic.
