24-epi-Castasterone is a brassinosteroid plant hormone that regulates various physiological processes in plants, including growth and development. It is a structural analog of castasterone, a key bioactive brassinosteroid. 24-epi-Castasterone influences cell elongation, flowering, and stress responses in plants by binding to brassinosteroid receptors and initiating signal transduction pathways. Research on this compound explores its role in plant physiology, agriculture, and biotechnology, aiming to leverage its effects for improving crop yield, stress tolerance, and plant growth regulation.
