Compound Overview
Saudin, derived from Clutia lanceolata, is a hypoglycemic compound that markedly boosts glucose-triggered insulin release from murine pancreatic islets. It is part of a new group of diterpenoids built on a distinct tetracyclic core, which points to its potential as a therapeutic agent for diabetes. Proposed biosynthetic pathways describe alternative cyclization routes arising from a common precursor, and within this pathway Lanceolide P (16) has been identified as a promising lead compound for further diabetes-related development[1]. It has the molecular formula C20H22O7 and a molecular weight of 374.38 g/mol.
