Description

Gedunin CAS NO 2753-30-2 is a naturally occurring limonoid compound, a secondary metabolite primarily isolated from the neem tree (*Azadirachta indica*). This phytochemical is of significant interest for its potent biological activities, particularly as a promising lead compound in pharmaceutical research and development. It is primarily sought by research institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and nutraceutical manufacturers engaged in advanced therapeutic discovery and development programs.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research: Investigated as a potential therapeutic agent due to its anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-malarial properties.
• Biochemical Research: Used as a specific inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), a key target in oncology research.
• Natural Product Chemistry: Serves as a reference standard and a key intermediate for the synthesis of novel bioactive compounds.
• Academic & Institutional Studies: Employed in university and government labs for pharmacological screening and mechanism-of-action studies.
• Preclinical Development: Utilized in *in vitro* and *in vivo* studies to assess efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity profiles.
• Botanical Extract Standardization: Acts as a marker compound for the quality control and standardization of neem-based extracts.
