Impaired Very Long-chain Acyl-CoA β-Oxidation in Human X-linked Adrenoleukodystrophy Fibroblasts Is a Direct Consequence of ABCD1 Transporter Dysfunction

Abstract: Background: ABCD1 is a peroxisomal ABC transporter whose dysfunction causes X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD). Results: ␤-Oxidation of C26:0 and C22:0 acyl-CoA esters is impaired in X-ALD. ABCD3 accounts for residual ␤-oxidation activity in X-ALD fibroblasts. Conclusion: ABCD1 mediates very long-chain acyl-CoA ester ␤-oxidation without need for additional re-esterification by an acyl-CoA synthetase. Significance: Our study provides proof of deficient acyl-CoA ester ␤-oxidation in X-ALD.

“…A recent study showed that a dysfunction of the ABCD1 transporter is responsible for adrenoleukodystrophy (ADL). ADL is a X chromosomelinked disease, which is characterized by an impaired oxidation of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) in peroxisomes and hence the accumulation of VLCFA in tissues and body fluids [3,9,20].…”

“…Considering that ACBD5 exposes its ACBD to the cytosol (Fig. 2), we propose that ACBD5 captures VLC-CoAs on the cytosolic side of the peroxisomal membrane so that the uptake of VLC-CoAs into peroxisomes via the peroxisomal ABC transporters (32)(33)(34) and subsequent ␤-oxidation thereof can proceed efficiently. It would be also of interest to investigate whether ACBD5 physically interacts with and/or functions coordinately with the ABC transporters, including ABCD1.…”

“…11,12 In all its variants, the disease is caused by the loss of function of the ABCD1 gene in Xq2.8, which encodes a transmembrane transporter involved in the import of VLCFA and VLCFACoenzyme A esters into the peroxisome for their breakdown by beta-oxidation. 13 Lack of phenotype-genotype correlations within the same nuclear family contribute to the enigmatic nature of the disease. Therapeutic options remain scarce, with a small window of opportunity to apply allogeneic bone marrow transplant or new gene therapy for CCALD.…”
