Lethal Neonatal Progression of Fetal Cardiomegaly Associated to ACAD9 Deficiency

Abstract: ACAD9 (acyl-CoA dehydrogenase 9) is an essential factor for the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly. ACAD9, a member of acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family, has high homology with VLCAD (very long-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase) and harbors a homodimer structure. Recently, patients with ACAD9 deficiency have been described with a wide clinical spectrum ranging from severe lethal form to moderate form with exercise intolerance.We report here a prenatal presentation with intrauterine growth retardation an… Show more

“…All patients had a reduction in CI enzymatic activity and assembly. Severe neonatal presentations [ 38 ] and multiorgan involvement, with liver and kidney damage [ 39 ], broaden the phenotypic spectrum of ACAD9 disease. Most of the ACAD9 mutant cells and patients respond to riboflavin treatment, with partial correction of CI deficiency and clinical improvement [ 35 , 40 ], possibly because ACAD9 is an FADH 2 -dependent acyl-CoA dehydrogenase.…”

“…The two fetuses reported here share phenotypic presentations with individual 1 and 2 from the study by Feichtinger et al, 3 namely IUGR, oligo/anhydramnios, generalized edema, cardio/hepatomegaly, cortical hemorrhages, and preterm birth within 20 to 34 weeks of gestation. Studies of other mitochondrial diseases caused by pathogenic variants in, for example, ACAD9 , POLG , COQ9 , and FBXL4 , have shown prenatal onset of mitochondrial disease with intrauterine growth retardation, lactic acidosis, cardiomegaly, anemia, renal abnormalities, dysmorphic facial features, cerebellar hypoplasia and often preterm, or shortly thereafter, fatality 13‐16 . However, the large variability in phenotypic presentation, the large number of genes involved in mitochondrial function, and the unknown prenatal phenotype for most mitochondrial diseases highlights the utility of exome/genome sequencing in the diagnostic workup.…”

“…A single case of type I mitochondrial complex deficiency has been reported with antenatal biventricular non-compaction associated with congenital complete heart block [Dhar et al, 2015], but the underlying genetic etiology for this case was not determined. Three other cases with pathogenic variants in ACAD9 had fetal cardiac findings, one of them cardiomegaly [Lagoutte-Renosi et al, 2015] and the other two dysrythmias [Repp et al, 2018]. Interestingly, the case with prenatal cardiomegaly also showed growth retardation detected as early as at 22 weeks' gestation.…”
