Product Data Sheet
Triacetin
Catalog No. A16758
Triacetin (Glyceryl triacetate) is an orally active synthetic triester of glycerol and acetic acid that serves as a bioavailable source of acetate. It freely crosses the blood–brain barrier and cellular membranes, making it particularly effective in targeting central nervous system malignancies. In glioma cells, Triacetin increases intracellular acetate levels, promotes histone acetylation, and induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Additionally, Triacetin enhances the chemotherapeutic efficacy of Temozolomide (TMZ), supporting its potential as an adjuvant in glioma treatment strategies.
