Gene: ACAD8
Official Full Name: acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family member 8provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family of enzymes that catalyze the dehydrogenation of acyl-CoA derivatives in the metabolism of fatty acids or branch chained amino acids. The encoded protein is a mitochondrial enzyme that functions in catabolism of the branched-chain amino acid valine. Defects in this gene are the cause of isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

ACAD8 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models generated through precise gene editing techniques, specifically targeting the ACAD8 gene, which encodes the enzyme acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. This enzyme plays a critical role in the mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation pathway, impacting lipid metabolism and contributing to various physiological processes. By creating cell lines with a knockout of the ACAD8 gene, researchers can study the effects of absent ACAD8 expression on cellular metabolism, energy homeostasis, and associated pathologies.
These cell lines function as invaluable tools for elucidating the biochemical pathways influenced by ACAD8. The knockout cells exhibit altered lipid profiles and energy production rates, making them ideal for investigating diseases related to fatty acid metabolism, such as metabolic syndrome, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases. Researchers can leverage these models to test potential therapeutic agents aimed at restoring normal metabolic function or to explore the pathways leading to metabolic dysregulation.
The scientific importance of ACAD8 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their contribution to understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying various metabolic disorders. Unlike traditional models, these knockout cell lines allow for specific and controlled studies that closely mimic human diseases, improving the translational potential of the findings to clinical scenarios. Additionally, they provide a platform for drug discovery and the development of novel therapeutic interventions.
The distinctive advantage of our ACAD8 Gene Knockout Cell Lines over competitor products lies in their high specificity and reliability, given the precision of CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing techniques employed in their creation. These cell lines are rigorously validated to ensure the absence of off-target effects, thus providing researchers with confidence in their experimental results.
For researchers, clinicians, and biopharmaceutical companies focused on metabolic health, our ACAD8 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a critical advancement in the understanding and treatment of fatty acid metabolism-related disorders.
