Abstract
ABSTRACT Cardiac fibrosis is considered as unbalanced extracellular matrix production and degradation, contributing to heart failure. Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD) negatively regulates pathological cardiac hypertrophy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible role of SCAD in cardiac fibrosis. In vivo experiments were performed on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and SCAD-knockout mice. The cardiac tissues of hypertensive patients with cardiac fibrosis were used for the measurement of SCAD expression. In vitro experiments, with angiotensin II (Ang II), SCAD siRNA and adenovirus-SCAD were performed using cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). SCAD expression was significantly decreased in the left ventricles of SHR. Notably, swim training ameliorated cardiac fibrosis in SHR in association with the elevation of SCAD. The decrease in SCAD protein and mRNA expression levels in SHR CFs were in accordance with those in the left ventricular myocardium of SHR. In addition, SCAD expression was downregulated in CFs treated with Ang II in vitro, and SCAD siRNA interference induced the same changes in cardiac fibrosis as Ang II-treated CFs, while adenovirus-SCAD treatment significantly reduced the Ang II-induced CFs proliferation, alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and collagen expression. In SHR infected with adenovirus-SCAD, the cardiac fibrosis of the left ventricle was significantly decreased. However, cardiac fibrosis occurred in conventional SCAD-knockout mice. SCAD immunofluorescence intensity of cardiac tissue in hypertensive patients with cardiac fibrosis was lower than that of healthy subjects. Altogether, the current experimental outcomes indicate that SCAD has a negative regulatory effect on cardiac fibrosis and support its potential therapeutic target for suppressing cardiac fibrosis.

Abstract
Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (ACAD) is an inherited and potentially fatal disorder with variable clinical symptoms. The relationship between pathogenicity and deleterious point mutations is investigated here in ACAD structures of short (SCAD) and medium-chain (MCAD) types. Structures and dynamic features of native and mutant forms of enzymes models were compared. A total of 2.88 µs molecular dynamics simulations were performed at four different temperatures. Total energy, RMSD, protein ligand interactions and affinity, RMSF measures, secondary structure changes, and important interactions were studied. Mutations in the three main domains of ACADs are pathogenic, while those located at linker turns are not. Mutations affect mostly tetramer formations, secondary structures, and many contacts and interactions. In R206H (MCAD mutant) which is experimentally known to cause a huge turnover decrease, the lack of a single H-bond between substrate and FAD was observed. Secondary structures showed temperature-dependent changes, and SCAD activity was found to be highly correlated to the enzyme helix 3-10 content. Finally, RMSF patterns pointed to one important loop that maintains the substrate close to the active site and is a cause of substrate wobbling upon mutation. Despite similar structure, function, and cellular location, SCAD and MCAD may have different optimum temperatures that are related to the structure taken at that specific temperature. In conclusion, new insight has been provided on the effect of various SCAD and MCAD pathogenic mutations on the structure and dynamical features of the enzymes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fatty-acid oxidation disorders (FAODs) are recessive genetic diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS We report here clinical and paraclinical data from a retrospective study of 44 adults with muscular FAODs from six French reference centers for neuromuscular or metabolic diseases. RESULTS The study cohort consisted of 44 adult patients: 14 with carnitine palmitoyl transferase 2 deficiency (32%), nine with multiple acyl-CoA deficiency (20%), 13 with very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (30%), three with long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (7%), and five with short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (11%). Disease onset occurred during childhood in the majority of patients (59%), with a mean age at onset of 15 years (range = 0.5-35) and a mean of 12.6 years (range = 0-58) from disease onset to diagnosis. The principal symptoms were acute muscle manifestations (rhabdomyolysis, exercise intolerance, myalgia), sometimes associated with permanent muscle weakness. Episodes of rhabdomyolysis were frequent (84%), with a mean creatinine kinase level of 68,958 U/L (range = 660-300,000). General metabolic complications were observed in 58% of patients, respiratory manifestations in 18% of cases, and cardiological manifestations in 9% of cases. Fasting acylcarnitine profile was used to orient genetic explorations in 65% of cases. After a mean follow-up of 10 years, 33% of patients were asymptomatic and 56% continued to display symptoms after exercise. The frequency of rhabdomyolysis decreased after diagnosis in 64% of cases. CONCLUSION A standardized register would complete this cohort description of muscular forms of FAODs with exhaustive data, making it possible to assess the efficacy of therapeutic protocols in real-life conditions and during the long-term follow-up of patients.

Abstract
Since the identification of the first disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation defects (FAOD) in 1973, more than 20 defects have been identified. Although there are some differences, most FAOD have similar clinical signs, which are mainly due to energy depletion and toxicity of accumulated metabolites. However, some of them have an unusual clinical phenotype or specific clinical signs. This manuscript focuses on what we have learnt so far on the pathophysiology of these disorders, which present with clinical signs that are not typical of categorical FAOD. It also highlights that some disorders have not yet been identified and tries to make assumptions to explain why. It also deals with new treatments under consideration in FAOD, including triheptanoin and similar anaplerotic substrates, ketone body treatments, RNA and gene therapy approaches. Finally, it suggests challenges for the diagnosis of FAOD in the coming years, both for symptomatic patients and for those diagnosed through newborn screening. The ultimate goal would be to identify all the patients born with FAOD and ensure for them the best possible quality of life.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD), a key enzyme in the fatty acid oxidation process, is not only involved in ATP synthesis but also regulates the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide synthesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible role of SCAD in hypertension-associated vascular remodelling. METHODS In-vivo experiments were performed on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs, ages of 4 weeks to 20 months) and SCAD knockout mice. The aorta sections of hypertensive patients were used for measurement of SCAD expression. In-vitro experiments with t-butylhydroperoxide (tBHP), SCAD siRNA, adenovirus-SCAD (MOI 90) or shear stress (4, 15 dynes/cm 2 ) were performed using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). RESULTS Compared with age-matched Wistar rats, aortic SCAD expression decreased gradually in SHRs with age. In addition, aerobic exercise training for 8 weeks could significantly increase SCAD expression and enzyme activity in the aortas of SHRs while decreasing vascular remodelling in SHRs. SCAD knockout mice also exhibited aggravated vascular remodelling and cardiovascular dysfunction. Likewise, SCAD expression was also decreased in tBHP-induced endothelial cell apoptosis models and the aortas of hypertensive patients. SCAD siRNA caused HUVEC apoptosis in vitro , whereas adenovirus-mediated SCAD overexpression (Ad-SCAD) protected against HUVEC apoptosis. Furthermore, SCAD expression was decreased in HUVECs exposed to low shear stress (4 dynes/cm 2 ) and increased in HUVECs exposed to 15 dynes/cm 2 compared with those under static conditions. CONCLUSION SCAD is a negative regulator of vascular remodelling and may represent a novel therapeutic target for vascular remodelling.

Abstract
The C4b binding protein alpha (C4BPA) chain primarily engages in critical inflammatory and coagulation processes. The previous transcriptomic analysis showed that C4BPA is a differentially expressed gene in lower and higher fat content mammary gland cell lines from Chinese Holstein. This study aimed to investigate the effects of C4BPA on the inflammation and milk fat synthesis in bMECs by C4BPA knockdown and overexpression. The results highlighted that knockdown of C4BPA in bMECs could suppress the mRNA and protein expression of IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, and the TLR-4/NF-κB pathway-related genes and promote the expression of complement and coagulation cascade pathways related genes as well as TNF-α. Moreover, knockdown of C4BPA expression in bMECs reduced the content of triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol (CHOL) in bMECs, increased NEFA content, reduced mRNA and protein expression of ACSL1 and PPARA, and increased the mRNA and protein expression of ELOVL6, FADS1, and LPL. The bMECs, with the overexpression of C4BPA, showed the enhanced expression of TLR-4/NF-κB linked genes, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, and mRNA and protein level while reduced mRNA expression of TNF-α, compliment, and coagulation cascade related genes was observed. In bMECs, overexpression of C4BPA enhanced the content of TG and CHOL while reducing NEFA and stimulated the mRNA and protein expression of ACSL1, PPARA, and PPARG genes while inhibiting the mRNA and protein expression of FADS1 and LPL genes. Our results show that C4BPA not only regulates the lipid metabolism through the PPAR signaling pathway in bMECs but also contributes to the inflammatory response through TLR-4/NF-κB and the complement and coagulation cascade pathways. This study, for the first time, provides the primary basis for understanding the role of C4BPA in immunity and fat metabolism, which enables the researchers for innovative direction to investigate genes associated with fat metabolism and immunity. This study also advocates that the breeders must pay attention to such type of genes with multiple functions during animal breeding.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence demonstrates that cancer is an oxidative stress-related disease, and oxidative stress is closely linked with heat shock proteins (HSPs). Lipid oxidative stress is derived from lipid metabolism dysregulation that is closely associated with the development and progression of malignancies. This study sought to investigate regulatory roles of HSPs in fatty acid metabolism abnormality in ovarian cancer. Pathway network analysis of 5115 mitochondrial expressed proteins in ovarian cancer revealed various lipid metabolism pathway alterations, including fatty acid degradation, fatty acid metabolism, butanoate metabolism, and propanoate metabolism. HSP60 regulated the expressions of lipid metabolism proteins in these lipid metabolism pathways, including ADH5, ECHS1, EHHADH, HIBCH, SREBP1, ACC1, and ALDH2. Further, interfering HSP60 expression inhibited migration, proliferation, and cell cycle and induced apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells in vitro. In addition, mitochondrial phosphoproteomics and immunoprecipitation-western blot experiments identified and confirmed that phosphorylation occurred at residue Ser70 in protein HSP60, which might regulate protein folding of ALDH2 and ACADS in ovarian cancers. These findings clearly demonstrated that lipid metabolism abnormality occurred in oxidative stress-related ovarian cancer and that HSP60 and its phosphorylation might regulate this lipid metabolism abnormality in ovarian cancer. It opens a novel vision in the lipid metabolism reprogramming in human ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Background Fatty acid β-oxidation disorders (FAODs) include more than 15 distinct disorders and have a wide variety of symptoms, usually not evident between episodes of acute decompensation. After the introduction of newborn screening (NBS) using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), early identification of FAODs has become feasible. We analyzed the MS/MS results in Tianjin, China during a six-year period to evaluate the incidence, disease spectrum, and genetic characteristics of FAODs. Methods We analyzed the MS/MS results for screening FAODs from May 2013 to December 2018 in Tianjin, China. Infants with positive screening results were confirmed through next-generation sequencing and validated by Sanger sequencing. Results A total of 220,443 infants were screened and 25 FAODs patients were identified (1:8,817). Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) with an incidence rate up to 1:20,040 was the most common disorder among all FAODs. Recurrent mutations of relatively common diseases, like PCD and short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (SCADD), were identified. During the follow-up, two patients suffered from sudden death due to carnitine palmitoyl transferase-Ⅱ deficiency (CPT Ⅱ) and very-long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (VLCAD). Conclusion Our data indicated that FAODs are relatively common in Tianjin and may even cause infant death in certain cases. The elucidated disease spectrum and genetic backgrounds elucidated in this study may contribute to the treatment and prenatal genetic counseling of FAODs.

Abstract
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase type 2 (CPT2) deficiency, a mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation disorder (MFAOD), is a cause of myopathy in its late clinical presentation. As for other MFAODs, its diagnosis may be evocated when blood acylcarnitine profile is abnormal. However, a lack of abnormalities or specificity in this profile is not exclusive of CPT2 deficiency. Our retrospective study reports clinical and biological data in a cohort of 11 patients with circulating acylcarnitine profile unconclusive enough for a specific diagnosis orientation. In these patients, CPT2 gene studies was prompted by prior fluxomic explorations of mitochondrial β-oxidation on intact whole blood cells incubated with pentadeuterated ([16-2H3, 15-2H2])-palmitate. Clinical indication for fluxomic explorations was at least one acute rhabdomyolysis episode complicated, in 5 of 11 patients, by acute renal failure. Major trigger of rhabdomyolysis was febrile infection. In all patients, fluxomic data indicated deficient CPT2 function showing normal deuterated palmitoylcarnitine (C16-Cn) formation rates associated with increased ratios between generated C16-Cn and downstream deuterated metabolites (Σ deuterated C2-Cn to C14-Cn). Subsequent gene studies showed in all patients pathogenic gene variants in either homozygous or compound heterozygous forms. Consistent with literature data, allelic frequency of the c.338C > T[p.Ser113Leu] mutation amounted to 68.2% in our cohort. Other missense mutations included c.149C > A[p.Pro50His] (9%), c.200C > G[p.Ala200Gly] (4.5%) and previously unreported c.1171A > G[p.ser391Gly] (4.5%) and c.1420G > C[p.Ala474Pro] (4.5%) mutations. Frameshift c.1666-1667delTT[p.Leu556val*16] mutation (9%) was observed in two patients unknown to be related.
