Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase substrate promiscuity: Challenges and opportunities for development of substrate reduction therapy in disorders of valine and isoleucine metabolism. J Inherit Metab Dis 2023; 46:931-942. [PMID: 37309295 PMCID: PMC10526699 DOI: 10.1002/jimd.12642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2022] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Toxicity of accumulating substrates is a significant problem in several disorders of valine and isoleucine degradation notably short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase (ECHS1 or crotonase) deficiency, 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (HIBCH) deficiency, propionic acidemia (PA), and methylmalonic aciduria (MMA). Isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase (ACAD8) and short/branched-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SBCAD, ACADSB) function in the valine and isoleucine degradation pathways, respectively. Deficiencies of these acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (ACAD) enzymes are considered biochemical abnormalities with limited or no clinical consequences. We investigated whether substrate reduction therapy through inhibition of ACAD8 and SBCAD can limit the accumulation of toxic metabolic intermediates in disorders of valine and isoleucine metabolism. Using analysis of acylcarnitine isomers, we show that 2-methylenecyclopropaneacetic acid (MCPA) inhibited SBCAD, isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase, short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase and medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, but not ACAD8. MCPA treatment of wild-type and PA HEK-293 cells caused a pronounced decrease in C3-carnitine. Furthermore, deletion of ACADSB in HEK-293 cells led to an equally strong decrease in C3-carnitine when compared to wild-type cells. Deletion of ECHS1 in HEK-293 cells caused a defect in lipoylation of the E2 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which was not rescued by ACAD8 deletion. MCPA was able to rescue lipoylation in ECHS1 KO cells, but only in cells with prior ACAD8 deletion. SBCAD was not the sole ACAD responsible for this compensation, which indicates substantial promiscuity of ACADs in HEK-293 cells for the isobutyryl-CoA substrate. Substrate promiscuity appeared less prominent for 2-methylbutyryl-CoA at least in HEK-293 cells. We suggest that pharmacological inhibition of SBCAD to treat PA should be investigated further.

Valine metabolites analysis in ECHS1 deficiency. Mol Genet Metab Rep 2021; 29:100809.

Abstract
Short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase (ECHS1) is involved in amino acid and fatty acid catabolism in mitochondria and its deficiency causes Leigh syndrome or exercise-induced dystonia. More than 60 patients with this condition have been reported till date. The accumulation of intermediate metabolites of valine is assumed to be responsible for the cytotoxicity. Since protein restriction, including valine reportedly improves neurological symptoms, it is essential to consider the possible incidence of and diagnose ECHS1 syndrome in the earlier stages. This study reported the liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) urine and plasma metabolite analysis in six cases, including four new cases with ECHS1 deficiency. The values of urine cysteine/cysteamine conjugates from valine metabolites, S-(2-carboxypropyl) cysteine/cysteamine from methacrylyl-CoA, and S-(2-carboxyethyl) cysteine/cysteamine from acryloyl-CoA were separated between six patients and six normal controls. The LC-MS/MS analysis revealed that these metabolites can be used for the early diagnosis and evaluation of diet therapy.

Abstract
Paroxysmal dyskinesias (PD) are rare movement disorders characterized by recurrent attacks of dystonia, chorea, athetosis, or their combination, with large phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. 3-Hydroxy-isobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (HIBCH) deficiency is a neurodegenerative disease characterized in most patients by a continuous decline in psychomotor abilities or a secondary regression triggered by febrile infections and metabolic crises.We describe two PD patients from two pedigrees, both carrying a homozygous c.913A > G, p.Thr305Ala mutation in the HIBCH gene, associated with an unusual clinical presentation. The first patient presented in the second year of life with right paroxysmal hemidystonia lasting for 30 minutes, without any loss of consciousness and without any triggering factor. The second patient has presented since the age of 3 recurrent exercise-induced PD episodes which have been described as abnormal equinovarus, contractures of the lower limbs, lasting for 1 to 4 hours, associated with choreic movements of the hands. Their neurological examination and metabolic screening were normal, while brain magnetic resonance imaging showed abnormal signal of the pallidi.We suggest that HIBCH deficiency, through the accumulation of metabolic intermediates of the valine catabolic pathway, leads to a secondary defect in respiratory chain activity and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity and to a broad phenotypic spectrum ranging from Leigh syndrome to milder phenotypes. The two patients presented herein expand the spectrum of the disease to include unusual paroxysmal phenotypes and HIBCH deficiency should be considered in the diagnostic strategy of PD to enable adequate preventive treatment.

Abstract
Objective: 3-Hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (HIBCH) deficiency is a rare metabolic disease of valine metabolism. Only 22 cases of HIBCH deficiency have been reported in the literature. Our algorithm could help in the diagnosis of this disease. Methods: HIBCH gene analysis was performed in all cases. Results: The common features of our five patients from the same family with a developmental delay, seizures, and neurological regression were the elevation of 3-hydroxy-isobutyryl-carnitine and Leigh-like abnormalities. Unlike other patients in the literature, our patients were diagnosed with HIBCH gene analysis, rather than whole exome sequencing (WES). In all our cases, a missense c.452C>T, p. Ser151Leu homozygous novel pathogenic mutation was detected in the HIBCH gene. Conclusion: In cases where HIBCH deficiency is considered in our differential diagnosis algorithm, HIBCH gene analysis, which is cost-effective, should be performed instead of WES, and the number of cases should be increased in the literature.

Abstract
Paroxysmal exercise-induced neurological symptoms (PENS) encompass a wide spectrum of clinical phenomena commonly presenting during childhood and characteristically elicited by physical exercise. Interestingly, few shared pathogenetic mechanisms have been identified beyond the well-known entity of paroxysmal exercise-induced dyskinesia, PENS could be part of more complex phenotypes including neuromuscular, neurodegenerative, and neurometabolic disease, epilepsies, and psychogenetic disorders. The wide and partially overlapping phenotypes and the genetic heterogeneity make the differential diagnosis frequently difficult and delayed; however, since some of these disorders may be treatable, a prompt diagnosis is mandatory. Therefore, an accurate characterization of these symptoms is pivotal for orienting more targeted biochemical, radiological, neurophysiological, and genetic investigations and finally treatment. In this article, we review the clinical, genetic, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic landscape of paroxysmal exercise induced neurological symptoms, focusing on phenomenology and differential diagnosis.

Abstract
The paroxysmal dyskinesias are a diverse group of genetic disorders that manifest as episodic movements, with specific triggers, attack frequency, and duration. With recent advances in genetic sequencing, the number of genetic variants associated with paroxysmal dyskinesia has dramatically increased, and it is now evident that there is significant genotype-phenotype overlap, reduced (or incomplete) penetrance, and phenotypic variability. In addition, a variety of genetic conditions can present with paroxysmal dyskinesia as the initial symptom. This review will cover the 34 genes implicated to date and propose a diagnostic workflow featuring judicious use of whole-exome or -genome sequencing. The goal of this review is to provide a common understanding of paroxysmal dyskinesias so basic scientists, geneticists, and clinicians can collaborate effectively to provide diagnoses and treatments for patients.

Abstract
3-Hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (HIBCH, NM_014362.3) gene mutation can cause HIBCH deficiency, leading to Leigh/Leigh-like disease. To date, few case series have investigated the relationship between metabolites and clinical phenotypes or the effects of treatment, although 34 patients with HIBCH mutations from 27 families have been reported. The purpose of this study was to analyze the phenotypic spectrum, follow-up results, metabolites, and genotypes of patients with HIBCH deficiency presenting with Leigh/Leigh-like syndrome and explore specific metabolites related to disease diagnosis and prognosis through retrospective and longitudinal studies. Applying next-generation sequencing, we identified eight patients with HIBCH mutations from our cohort of 181 cases of genetically diagnosed Leigh/Leigh-like syndrome. Six novel HIBCH mutations were identified: c.977T>G [p.Leu326Arg], c.1036G>T [p.Val346Phe], c.750+1G>A, c.810-2A>C, c.469C>T [p.Arg157*], and c.236delC [p.Pro79Leufs*5]. The Newcastle Pediatric Mitochondrial Disease Scale (NPMDS) was employed to assess disease progression and clinical outcomes. The non-invasive approach of metabolite analysis showed that levels of some were associated with clinical phenotype severity. Five (5/7) patients presented with elevated C4-OH in dried blood spots, and the level was probably correlated with the NPMDS scores during the peak disease phase. 2,3-Dihydroxy-2-methylbutyrate in urine was elevated in six (6/7) patients and elevated S-(2-caboxypropyl)cysteamine in urine was found in three patients (3/3). The median age at initial presentation was 13 months (8–18 months), and the median follow-up was 2.3 years (range 1.3–7.2 years). We summarized and compared with all reported patients with HIBCH mutations. The most prominent clinical manifestations were developmental regression/delay, hypotonia, encephalopathy, and feeding difficulties. We administered drug and dietary treatment. During follow-up, five patients responded positively to treatment with a significant decrease in NPMDS scores. Our research is the largest case series of patients with HIBCH mutations.

Abstract
Paroxysmal movement disorders (PMDs) are rare neurological diseases typically manifesting with intermittent attacks of abnormal involuntary movements. Two main categories of PMDs are recognized based on the phenomenology: Paroxysmal dyskinesias (PxDs) are characterized by transient episodes hyperkinetic movement disorders, while attacks of cerebellar dysfunction are the hallmark of episodic ataxias (EAs). From an etiological point of view, both primary (genetic) and secondary (acquired) causes of PMDs are known. Recognition and diagnosis of PMDs is based on personal and familial medical history, physical examination, detailed reconstruction of ictal phenomenology, neuroimaging, and genetic analysis. Neurophysiological or laboratory tests are reserved for selected cases. Genetic knowledge of PMDs has been largely incremented by the advent of next generation sequencing (NGS) methodologies. The wide number of genes involved in the pathogenesis of PMDs reflects a high complexity of molecular bases of neurotransmission in cerebellar and basal ganglia circuits. In consideration of the broad genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity, a NGS approach by targeted panel for movement disorders, clinical or whole exome sequencing should be preferred, whenever possible, to a single gene approach, in order to increase diagnostic rate. This review is focused on clinical and genetic features of PMDs with the aim to (1) help clinicians to recognize, diagnose and treat patients with PMDs as well as to (2) provide an overview of genes and molecular mechanisms underlying these intriguing neurogenetic disorders.
