Abstract

X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD), the most common peroxisomal disorder, is caused by mutations in the peroxisomal transporter ABCD1, resulting in the accumulation of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA). Strongly affected cell types, such as oligodendrocytes, adrenocortical cells and macrophages, exhibit high cholesterol turnover. Here, we investigated how ABCD1 deficiency affects cholesterol metabolism in human X-ALD patient-derived fibroblasts and CNS tissues of Abcd1-deficient mice. Lipidome analyses revealed increased levels of cholesterol esters (CE), containing both saturated VLCFA and mono/polyunsaturated (V)LCFA. The elevated CE(26:0) and CE(26:1) levels remained unchanged in LXR agonist-treated Abcd1 KO mice despite reduced total C26:0. Under high-cholesterol loading, gene expression of SOAT1, converting cholesterol to CE and lipid droplet formation were increased in human X-ALD fibroblasts versus healthy control fibroblasts. However, the expression of NCEH1, catalysing CE hydrolysis and the cholesterol transporter ABCA1 and cholesterol efflux were also upregulated. Elevated Soat1 and Abca1 expression and lipid droplet content were confirmed in the spinal cord of X-ALD mice, where expression of the CNS cholesterol transporter Apoe was also elevated. The extent of peroxisome-lipid droplet co-localisation appeared low and was not impaired by ABCD1-deficiency in cholesterol-loaded primary fibroblasts. Finally, addressing steroidogenesis, progesterone-induced cortisol release was amplified in X-ALD fibroblasts. These results link VLCFA to cholesterol homeostasis and justify further consideration of therapeutic approaches towards reducing VLCFA and cholesterol levels in X-ALD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
