Hepatic steatosis, the first step in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is frequently observed in the aging population. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains largely unknown. In this study, we first employed GSEA enrichment analysis to identify short-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (SCAD), which participates in the mitochondrial β-oxidation of fatty acids and may be associated with hepatic steatosis in elderly individuals. Subsequently, we examined SCAD expression and hepatic triglyceride content in various aged humans and mice and found that triglycerides were markedly increased and that SCAD was upregulated in aged livers. Our further evidence in SCAD-ablated mice suggested that SCAD deletion was able to slow liver aging and ameliorate aging-associated fatty liver. Examination of the molecular pathways by which the deletion of SCAD attenuates steatosis revealed that the autophagic degradation of lipid droplets, which was not detected in elderly wild-type mice, was maintained in SCAD-deficient old mice. This was due to the decrease in the production of acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA), which is abundant in the livers of old wild-type mice. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that the suppression of SCAD may prevent age-associated hepatic steatosis by promoting lipophagy and that SCAD could be a promising therapeutic target for liver aging and associated steatosis.
