Biochemical, molecular, and clinical characteristics of children with short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency detected by newborn screening in California.

BACKGROUND: Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation with highly variable biochemical, genetic, and clinical characteristics. SCADD has been associated with accumulation of butyryl-CoA byproducts, including butyrylcarnitine (C4), butyrylglycine, ethylmalonic acid (EMA), and methylsuccinic acid (MS) in body fluid and tissues. Differences in genotype frequencies have been shown between patients diagnosed clinically versus those diagnosed by newborn screening. Moreover, while patients diagnosed clinically ha

Short-chain Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency: studies in a large family adding to the complexity of the disorder.

OBJECTIVE: To understand the expanding clinical and biochemical spectrum of short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) deficiency, the impact of which is not fully understood. STUDY DESIGN: We studied a family with SCAD deficiency and determined urinary ethylmalonic acid excretion, plasma C(4)-carnitine, SCAD enzyme activity in fibroblasts and lymphocytes, DNA mutations in the SCAD gene, and clinical expression. The index patient was born prematurely and had otherwise unexplained cholestasis and hepatomegaly during the first year of life. His mother developed a hemolysis-elevated liver enzymes

Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide Ameliorates Pressure Overload-Induced Heart Failure by Activating the Short-Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase.

Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), a cofactor that catalyzes the reaction of flavin protein, participates in fatty acid β-oxidation, which has been shown to inhibit pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats. However, the therapeutic advantage of FAD for heart failure (HF) treatment has not been investigated. This study aimed to explore the effects and underlying mechanisms of FAD in a transverse aortic constriction-induced HF mouse model and in vitro tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBHP)-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis model experiments. FAD considerably inhibi

Effects of ERK1/2/PPARα/SCAD signal pathways on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by insulin-like growth factor 1 and phenylephrine.

AIMS: Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) is a key enzyme in fatty acid oxidation. In the present study we aim to investigate the changes in SCAD between pathological and physiological cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. We also explore the different signaling pathways of pathological and physiological cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. MAIN METHODS: After neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were treated as setups, cell surface area, expression of SCAD, PPARα, phospho-ERK1/2, activity of SCAD, free fatty acid content and ATP content in the cardiomyocytes were measured. KEY FINDINGS: Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes

Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase gene mutation (c.319C>T) presents with clinical heterogeneity and is candidate founder mutation in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish origin.

We report 10 children (7 male, 3 female), 3 homozygous for c.319C>T mutation and 7 heterozygous for c.319C>T on one allele and c.625G>A variant on the other in the short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) gene (ACADS). All were of Ashkenazi Jewish origin in which group we found a c.319C>T heterozygote frequency of 1:15 suggesting the presence of a founder mutation or selective advantage. Phenotype was variable with onset from birth to early childhood. Features included hypotonia (8/10), developmental delay (8/10), myopathy (4/10) with multicore changes in two and lipid storage in one, facial

Changes in short-chain acyl-coA dehydrogenase during rat cardiac development and stress.

This study was designed to investigate the expression of short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD), a key enzyme of fatty acid β-oxidation, during rat heart development and the difference of SCAD between pathological and physiological cardiac hypertrophy. The expression of SCAD was lowest in the foetal and neonatal heart, which had time-dependent increase during normal heart development. In contrast, a significant decrease in SCAD expression was observed in different ages of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). On the other hand, swim-trained rats developed physiological cardiac hypertrophy,

Flavine adenine dinucleotide inhibits pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis through activating short chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase.

Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD), the rate-limiting enzyme for fatty acid β-oxidation, has a negative regulatory effect on pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. Furthermore, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) can enhance the expression and enzyme activity of SCAD. However, whether FAD can inhibit pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis remains unclear. Therefore, we observed the effect of FAD on pathological cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. FAD significantly inhibited PE-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and AngII-induced cardiac fibroblast proliferation. In addition, F

Short-chain acyl post-translational modifications in cancers: Mechanisms, roles, and therapeutic implications.

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a pivotal role in epigenetic regulation and are key pathways for modulating protein functionality. PTMs involve the covalent attachment of distinct chemical groups, such as succinyl, crotonyl, and lactyl, at specific protein sites, which alter protein structure, function, stability, and activity, ultimately influencing biological processes. Recently, metabolically derived short-chain acylation modifications (with acyl groups containing fewer than six carbon atoms) have been progressively identified, such as butyrylation, succinylation, crotonylation

Short-chain fatty acids in the tumor microenvironment: from molecular mechanisms to cancer therapy.

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), including acetate, propionate, and butyrate, serve as pivotal metabolites within the tumor microenvironment (TME), playing essential roles in modulating tumor progression. Although the biological functions and mechanisms of SCFAs in the TME show some overlap, each SCFA also exerts some distinct regulatory effects on tumors and TME. Notably, even a single SCFA may exhibit pleiotropic effects across different cancer types or under varying conditions within the same malignancy. Consequently, according to the different metabolic microenvironment of patients, precis

Lactylation in health and disease: physiological or pathological?

Lactate is an indispensable substance in various cellular physiological functions and plays regulatory roles in different aspects of energy metabolism and signal transduction. Lactylation (Kla), a key pathway through which lactate exerts its functions, has been identified as a novel posttranslational modification (PTM). Research indicates that Kla is an essential balancing mechanism in a variety of organisms and is involved in many key cellular biological processes through different pathways. Kla is closely related to disease development and represents a potential and important new drug target

Microbiota-derived metabolites as modulators of cancer immunotherapy response.

The microbiome is a key regulator of host homeostasis and immune activity, in part through the production of metabolites. These microbiota-derived metabolites can modulate both the innate and adaptive immune system, as well as directly target tumour cells, thereby regulating anti-tumour immunity and response to immunotherapy. Here, we describe the current mechanistic knowledge on how these metabolites exert their effects and outline the methodologies used to detect and assess these metabolites. Finally, we summarize microbiota-targeted therapies capable of improving microbial functionality to

Histone modifications: Unveiling the epigenetic enigma of degenerative skeletal diseases.

Degenerative skeletal diseases, including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and intervertebral disc degeneration, are prevalent age-related conditions characterized by progressive tissue degeneration and functional decline. Histone modifications are covalent modifications of histone residues, catalyzed by specific enzymes, that modulate chromatin architecture and transcriptional activity. Accumulating evidence highlights the critical involvement of histone modifications in orchestrating disease-associated transcriptional programs. In osteoporosis, histone modifications regulate osteoblast and oste

Ketogenic Diet in Cancer Prevention and Therapy: Molecular Targets and Therapeutic Opportunities.

Although cancer is still one of the most significant global challenges facing public health, the world still lacks complementary approaches that would significantly enhance the efficacy of standard anticancer therapies. One of the essential strategies during cancer treatment is following a healthy diet program. The ketogenic diet (KD) has recently emerged as a metabolic therapy in cancer treatment, targeting cancer cell metabolism rather than a conventional dietary approach. The ketogenic diet (KD), a high-fat and very-low-carbohydrate with adequate amounts of protein, has shown antitumor effe

Unveiling the role of histone deacetylases in neurological diseases: focus on epilepsy.

Epilepsy remains a prevalent chronic neurological disease that is featured by aberrant, recurrent and hypersynchronous discharge of neurons and poses a great challenge to healthcare systems. Although several therapeutic interventions are successfully utilized for treating epilepsy, they can merely provide symptom relief but cannot exert disease-modifying effect. Therefore, it is of urgent need to explore other potential mechanism to develop a novel approach to delay the epileptic progression. Since approximately 30 years ago, histone deacetylases (HDACs), the versatile epigenetic regulators re
