It functions as an actin aggregator, reducing cell viability in a dose-dependent manner, and induces apoptosis by triggering G2\/M phase cell cycle arrest together with caspase-3-dependent apoptotic activation\u003csup\u003e[1][2][3][4][5]\u003c\/sup\u003e. It has the molecular formula C30H46O7 and a molecular weight of 518.68 g\/mol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePhysical \u0026amp; Chemical Properties\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"bhp-spec-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5939-57-1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMolecular Formula\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eC30H46O7\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e518.68 g\/mol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStructure Classification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTerpenoids Triterpenes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSMILES\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eC[C@]12[C@@]([C@@]([C@@H](C1)O)([H])[C@@](C)(O)C(\/C=C\/C(C)(O)C)=O)(CC([C@@]3([C@@]2([H])CC=C4[C@@]3([H])C[C@@H]([C@H](C4(C)C)O)O)C)=O)C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSignaling Pathway\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAnti-infection; Apoptosis\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInitial Source\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlant — Cucurbitaceae Hemsleya gigantha W.
