Combined isobutyryl‐CoA and multiple acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency in a boy with altered riboflavin homeostasis

Abstract: In this report, we describe the case of an 11-year-old boy, who came to our attention for myalgia and muscle weakness, associated with inappetence and vomiting. Hypertransaminasemia was also noted, with ultrasound evidence of hepatomegaly. Biochemical investigations revealed acylcarnitine and organic acid profiles resembling those seen in MADD, that is, multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiencies (OMIM #231680) a rare inherited disorder of fatty acids, amino acids, and choline metabolism. The patient carried … Show more

“…The precise molecular mechanisms underpinning the flavo-enzyme variants described herein that lead to the range of late-onset riboflavin-responsive pathologies remains unclear. Very few individuals who exhibit riboflavin-responsiveness demonstrate riboflavin deficiency [ 86 , 87 ]. However, at least in part, FAD appears to function as a chemical chaperone that is important for correct flavo-enzyme folding and stability.…”

“…These findings are indicative of an inadequate riboflavin status. Since functional and direct biomarkers can be used in clinical practice to evaluate the levels of these two vitamins [75,76], it is necessary to reevaluate the patients' pyridoxine and riboflavin status.…”
