Dysidenin
Dysidenin is a toxin from the sponge Lamellodysidea herbacea. It has a lethal effect on fishes and some marine organisms. It has been found to inhibit iodide transport in thyroid cells.[1]

Since Metabolites of the sponge exhibit regional variation, it has been isolated from samples from the Great Barrier Reef, while being absent in samples from the Caroline Islands.[2] It was first isolated in 1977.[3]
