Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods of treating propionic acidemia (PA), methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) and fatty acid oxidation disorders are described. The methods include administering an anaplerotic agent that can directly enter the tricarboxylic acid cycle, such as a succinate derivative or pro-drug, for example trisuccinylglycerol (TSG). Methods of restoring tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle function in a cell deficient for propionyl-CoA carboxylase (PCC) or methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MUT) by contacting the cell with a succinate derivative or pro-drug, such as TSG, are also described.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of treating propionic (PA) or methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) in a subject, comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of trisuccinylglycerol
