Feeding difficulties in long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Feeding difficulties are common in long chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency in early childhood and are not associated with developmental disability, metabolic abnormalities, or the overnight feeding regimen. They are an inherent part of the phenotype and it is important to recognise them because of the distress and disruption they cause.

[Mitochondrial trifunctional protein deficiency].
We examined the enzyme protein and biosynthesis of human trifunctional protein harboring enoyl-CoA hydratase, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase, and 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase activity in cultured skin fibroblasts from two patients with longchain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency. The following results were obtained. (a) In cells from patient 1, immunoblot analysis and pulse-chase experimen...

Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) is a recently identified enzyme involved in mitochondrial b -oxidation, harboring long-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase, long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) and long-chain 3-ketothiolase activity. A deficiency of this protein is associated with impaired oxidation of long-chain fatty acids which can lead to sudden infant death. Furthermore, it is...
متن کاملPlacental floor infarction complicating the pregnancy of a fetus with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD) deficiency.
By postmortem biochemical and molecular genetic analyses, an 8-month-old infant was diagnosed with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency, an inborn error of mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation. He was born following a pregnancy complicated by a maternal floor infarction of the placenta, a disorder of unknown etiology. We speculate that the child's autosomal recessive ...
متن کاملMedium-Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency in an Infant with Dilated Cardiomyopathy
We report about an infant affected by dilated cardiomyopathy (CMP) in whom metabolic investigations evidenced medium-chain-acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCADD), that is one of three types of inherited disorders of mitochondrial fatty-acid beta-oxidation. Long-chain and very long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficits are recognized as responsible of hypertrophic or, less fre...
متن کاملQuantitation of acyl-CoA and acylcarnitine esters accumulated during abnormal mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation.
We have used radio-high pressure liquid chromatography to study the acyl-CoA ester intermediates and the acylcarnitines formed during mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. During oxidation of [U-14C]hexadecanoate by normal human fibroblast mitochondria, only the saturated acyl-CoA and acylcarnitine esters can be detected, supporting the concept that the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase step is rate-limitin...
