Corosolic acid, a natural compound found in the bark of the Chinese Corosolic tree, has been shown to have hypoglycemic effects in mice. This compound inhibits the activity of glucose-6-phosphatase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), two enzymes responsible for gluconeogenesis. Corosolic acid also stimulates insulin release from pancreatic β cells by activating protein kinase B (also called Akt) and inhibiting protein kinase C. These effects are mediated through modulation of target enzymes such as protein kinases A and C, glycogen synthase kinase 3β, and GSK3β. The molecular docking analysis has shown that corosolic acid binds to these enzymes with high affinity.
