Triheptanoin (Propane-1,2,3-triyl triheptanoate) is a synthetic medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) consisting of three odd-chain 7-carbon (heptanoate) fatty acids on a glycerol backbone. Triheptanoin can be used for the research of inherited metabolic disorders.

体内研究(In Vivo)
In long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (LC-FAOD), Triheptanoin is used as an anaplerotic compound, acting as a source of calories and fatty acids to bypass the LC-FAOD enzyme deficiencies.
Triheptanoin can be used for the research of ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T).
Triheptanoin functions as an anaplerotic agent replenishing tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates by metabolism to heptanoate (C7) and subsequently acetyl-CoA and propionyl-CoA that feed into the TCA cycle to supply energy.
Triheptanoin mitigates brain ATP depletion and mitochondrial dysfunction, including respiration and redox balance in a mouse model of Alzheimers disease, supporting the energy failure hypothesis for that disorder.
Triheptanoin (Mice were treated with Triheptanoin (35E%) for 10 days prior to pilocarpine injection to induce status epilepticus) preserved mitochondrial func
