Colchicoside is a monoglycosylated colchicine alkaloid glycoside with anti-leishmanial activity. Colchicoside can be obtained by specific glycosylation of Colchicine (HY-16569) by Astragalus vesicarius plant suspension cells, and is also found in Gloriosa superba seeds. Colchicoside can serve as a precursor for the synthesis of Thiocolchicoside (HY-N0301). Colchicoside can be used in research related to anti-leishmanial infection.
