      Fatty Acid Oxidation Disorders – The body usually gets energy from sugars and fats. The sugar is used first but when the sugar is all used up, the body must use fats. In this group of disorders, the body cannot use fats because of the lack of one of several enzymes. ... Long Chain 3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (LCHAD Deficiency ...

      Plasma very long chain fatty acid analysis remains the most useful screening test for these conditions. VLCFA concentrations are significantly increased in general peroxisomal disorders such as Zellweger syndrome as well as in rare peroxisomal -oxidation disorders. In X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy the C26/C22 ratio is less markedly raised.

      Medium chain fats bypass the enzymes that are blocked in long chain fatty acid oxidation disorders, and they are used as an alternative source of fat. The accepted standard of care is to reduce total fat intake, limiting LCFA while replacing with MCT, to ensure adequate energy intake to meet individual calorie requirements.

    • Beta oxidation - Wikipedia

      Long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAODs) are a group of rare inherited inborn errors of metabolism. Individuals with long-chain FAODs are unable to use dietary fat (long chain fat) for energy. The inability to break down fats for energy and the buildup of fatty acids causes serious health problems.

      Medium chain triglycerides bypass the enzymes that are blocked in long chain fatty acid oxidation disorders and are used as an alternative source of fat. The accepted standard of care to manage the condition is to reduce total fat intake, limiting LCT (as low as 10% of total energy), while replacing with Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) to ...

      This inhibition of fatty acid oxidation is not unique to erucic acid, but rather is a feature common to very long chain monoenoic fatty acids (Sauer and Kramer 1983b). The inhibitory effect on overall β-oxidation rates is thought to be responsible for the accumulation of lipids in the heart, and to a lesser extent in the liver, following the ...

      Fatty Acid Oxidation: Defects of fatty acid oxidation may be suspected in non-ketotic fasting hypoglycemia associated with dicarboxylic aciduria or in unexplained cardiomyopathy or rhabdomyolysis. Certain defects (e.g.: medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency) in many cases (but not all) can be diagnosed directly by DNA mutational analysis.

      INDIVUIDUAL’S NAME has a diagnosis of long chain 3-hydroxy acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD)/Trifunctional protein (TFP) deficiency. This is a defect of fatty acid oxidation characterized by liver damage, hypoglycemia and the possibility of sudden death (cardiac arrest) at time of fasting/fever due to cardiac arrhythmia.
