24-Methylenecycloartanone is a triterpenoid compound used primarily in biochemical research, particularly in studying sterol biosynthesis pathways in plants, where it serves as a precursor or intermediate in the formation of phytosterols essential for plant cell membrane structure and function. It exhibits potential anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties, making it promising for plant-based pharmaceutical development from medicinal herbs used in traditional medicine. Additionally, it is investigated for skin care formulations due to its support for cell regeneration and acts as a biochemical marker in phytochemical studies to identify plant species and assess extract purity.
