• mice exhibit very-long-chain fatty acid accumulation in different lipid classes and acylcarnitines
• total C26:0 levels are increased 8-fold in brain, 4-fold in adrenals, 1.5-fold in testes, 4.5-fold in lung, 2.5-fold in liver, and 3.5-fold in kidney
• 1-hexacosanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosophocholine (C26:0-lysoPC) levels are increased 4-fold in the brain, 6-fold in the spinal cord, and 6-fold in the blood
• C26:0-carnitine levels are increased 10-fold in brain, 9-fold in spinal cord, and 6-fold in the blood
• however, total plasma C26:0 is not increased
