: Hydroxyl CoA Dehydrogenase (HADH) is one of the key enzymes in fatty acid β-oxidation. Recently, Hydroxyl CoA Dehydrogenase gene mutation and knockdown were found to be correlated with hyperinsulinemia and central nervous system diseases. As the HADH is one of the critical enzymes in the β-oxidation pathway, the interconnection between HADH and tumorigenicity still is unclear. So, we used Short hairpin RNA (ShRNA) to knock down short-chain hydroxyl CoA dehydrogenase (HADHSC) in human non-small lung carcinoma cell line, H1299, followed by checking cell proliferation, DNA replication, and mRNA level of some the most essential enzymes in glycolysis cycle and Krebs. Cell proliferation was checked by comparing the cell numbers in knockdown and control cells. DNA replication in the H1299 cell line was studied after applying 5-ethynyl 2’-deoxyuridine (EDU) and 4’-6 diamidino-2-phenylindol (DAPI) DNA synthesis Assay. The data revealed a significant decrease in cell proliferation and DNA replication in the cells that the HADHSC was knocked down compared to the control cells. Besides, mRNA levels of the enzymes that needed adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for their activity were decreased abruptly. Furthermore, lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA) mRNA level decreased, and glucose uptake assay showed a tremendous decrease in glucose consumption by H1299 cells with HADHSC knockdown.
