Description:Cephalotaxine is a naturally occurring alkaloid, which is derived from plants of the genus Cephalotaxus. This compound is extracted primarily from the bark and leaves of these trees and shrubs. As an alkaloid, Cephalotaxine influences cellular mechanisms through its ability to interfere with the microtubule dynamics within cells, akin to some well-known chemotherapeutics. This disruption of cellular microtubules prevents proper cell division, leading to apoptosis, particularly in rapidly dividing cancer cells.
