OBJECTIVE: The present study was done to clarify the mechanism by which conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) induces fatty liver in mice and to attenuate this symptom by adding other dietary fatty acids. METHODS: Mice were given CLA short (12 h) or long (4 wk) term or given CLA with linoleic acid (LA) or gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) in the long term (4 wk). Total lipids, triacylglycerol, and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) levels in the liver were determined. RESULTS: A single administration of CLA significantly increased PGE(2) levels in the liver 12 h after administration. However, long-term administration of CLA significantly decreased the liver PGE(2) level and induced fatty liver. GLA increased PGE(2) levels, and coadministration with GLA, but not with LA, prevented the CLA-induced fatty liver. CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that CLA initially stimulates PGE(2) production followed by depletion of PGE(2) sources in the liver. The fatty liver associated with PGE(2) reduction by CLA ingestion can be attenuated by GLA in mice. 相似文献

This study examined the interaction between conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and dietary fat type on the enrichment of subcellular fractions, the Delta(9) desaturase index and adiposity in pigs. Early weaned piglets (n = 6/group) were fed for 35 d diets supplemented with 15 g/100 g diet beef tallow or corn oil, or 12 g/100 g tallow or corn oil plus 3 g CLA. There were no effects of dietary fat or CLA on the mass of dissected skin, bone, muscle or adipose tissue of the 7th to 9th thoracic rib sections. Medial subcutaneous adipose tissue of pigs fed tallow had smaller adipocytes than that of pigs fed corn oil. The lateral subcutaneous site was unaffected by dietary fat type. Microsomes accumulated <50% the concentration of trans-10,cis-12, cis-11,trans-13, and cis-9,trans-11 CLA as membrane and nonmembrane fractions of adipose tissue and longissimus muscle. There was no evidence of preferential incorporation of any CLA isomer into any of the subcellular fractions. Addition of CLA to the diets reduced adipose tissue nonmembrane monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA; g/100 g total fatty acids) by 15% in corn oil-fed pigs and by 19% in tallow-fed pigs. Total saturated fatty acids (SFA) were increased by CLA commensurately in this lipid fraction. This resulted in a reduced Delta(9) desaturase index [MUFA/(SFA + MUFA)] in the nonmembrane lipid fraction of pigs fed either the corn oil or tallow diets. Thus, in spite of marked effects on fatty acid composition and the Delta(9) desaturase index, CLA had no effect on adiposity in early weaned piglets fed high fat diets. 相似文献

The effects of a combination of dietary conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) supplemented with sesamin on hepatic ketogenesis and triacylglycerol secretion were compared using the livers of rats fed diets containing 1% CLA or linoleic acid (LA) in combination with 0.2% sesamin for 14 d, respectively. The feeding of CLA, as compared to LA, caused a significant reduction in the weight of perirenal adipose tissue but not that of epididymal adipose tissue, and affected neither growth parameters nor hepatic lipid concentration. Hepatic production of ketone bodies was consistently higher in rats fed CLA than in those fed LA, while triacylglycerol secretion was reversed. No significant difference was noted in the hepatic secretion of cholesterol among the groups. Although there was no effect of the dietary combination of CLA with sesamin on adipose tissue weight, hepatic lipid parameters and ketone body production were observed: i.e., triacylglycerol secretion tended to be reduced. These results suggest that the dietary combination of CLA with sesamin may be an effective approach for lowering serum triacylglycerol levels. The decreased hepatic secretion of triacylglycerol is, in part, due to enhanced fatty acid oxidation in the liver. 相似文献

Dietary conjugated linoleic acid consumption during pregnancy and lactation influences growth and tissue composition in weaned pigs 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

We evaluated the effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on growth performance, tissue fatty acid composition and ex vivo lipogenic enzyme activity in piglets (n = 40) reared on sows fed diets supplemented with CLA or linoleic acid (LA). Weaned offspring of both sow groups were offered either a CLA- or LA-enriched starter diet for 35 d. The starter diets were formulated to contain 2 g CLA (containing 58.9 g CLA/100 g total fatty acids) or LA per 100 g feed. All piglets were slaughtered at 70 d of age and tissue samples of the back fat, omental fat and longissimus dorsi were collected. Irrespective of the dietary fat supplied in the starter period, piglets reared on the CLA sows had greater final body and warm carcass weights (P: < 0.01), and greater feed intake (P: = 0.02) than piglets reared on the LA sows. The dietary effect on the fatty acid composition was similar for the adipose and muscle tissues. Compared with the LA-enriched diets, CLA increased the level of total saturated fatty acids (P: < 0.05), whereas that of monounsaturated fatty acids was decreased (P: < 0.05). Dietary CLA increased glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (P: < 0.01) and malic enzyme activities (P: < 0.06) in the fat tissues, but did not affect fatty acid synthase activity. The shift toward a higher deposition of saturated fatty acids and a lower deposition of monounsaturated fatty acids is the result of down-regulation of Delta9-desaturase activity that was induced by CLA rather than an altered rate of de novo synthesis. 相似文献

Male young hamsters were fed for 30 days cholesterol-free purified diets containing two different fats with an essentially comparable fatty acid composition except for polyunsaturated fatty acids; either the mold oil produced by Mortierella sp. containing 13.5% linoleic acid (LA) and 10.1% ψ-linolenic acid (GLA) or the blend (23.6% LA) of palm oil and two types of safflower oils. Growth parameters were comparable in both dietary regimens. The effects on plasma and liver cholesterol of GLA were not evident as the levels were kept low in the two groups. The liver cholesterol and triacylglycerol contents were unaffected by dietary treatment. In addition to a significantly higher proportion of arachidonic acid (AA), a considerable amount of dihomo-GLA was detected in liver phosphatidylcholine from the hamster fed GLA-containing oil. The fatty acid compositions of adipose tissue and liver triacylglycerol reflected those of dieatry fats and the changes seen in the mold-oil fed rats paralleled with those of liver phosphatidylcholine. The plasma concentration of thromboxane B2 was comparable, while the aortic production fed the mold oil. Thus, prostacyclin generating capacity may be changed by an increased GLA intake even in animal species with limited 6- and 5-desaturase activities. 相似文献

Rats raised on n-3 essential fatty acid deficient diets demonstrate spatial memory deficits. To investigate neuroanatomical correlates of these deficits, morphological analysis of the hippocampus were carried out. Adult, female rats were raised for three generations on n-3 deficient or n-3 supplemented diets. Two n-3 deficient diets contained adequate linoleic acid (LA), or high linoleic acid (high LA), and two supplemented diets contained LA supplemented with alpha-linolenic acid (+LNA), or linoleic supplementation with alpha-linolenic and docosahexaenoic acids (+LNA/DHA). The total fatty acid composition of the hippocampus revealed a profound loss (90%) in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in the hippocampi of LA and high LA animals compared to those on +LNA and +LNA/DHA diets with a reciprocal increase in docosapentaenoic acid (DPAn-6) in all phospholipid species. The volume, density, total number, and cell body size of neurons in CA1-3, granular and hilar layers of the hippocampus were measured at septal and temporal locations using unbiased stereology. No differences were detected in any of these measures except for in cell body size; CA1 pyramidal neurons in the LA group were significantly (p < 0.04) smaller than neurons in the +LNA/DHA group at the septal location. 相似文献

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has anti-obesity effects, but induces fatty liver in mice. The present study investigated whether co-administration of arachidonic acid (ARA) attenuates fat accumulation in the mouse liver induced by CLA. Male mice (8 weeks old) were given diets with either no addition of dietary fat (control), 3 % linoleic acid (LA), 3 % CLA, 3 % CLA+1 % ARA, or 3 % CLA+2 % ARA for 4 weeks. The perirenal fat weight in ARA-treated groups decreased similarly as with CLA alone, when compared to control or LA. Plasma TAG concentration was significantly higher in the CLA group than in either CLA+ARA group, while plasma cholesterol and NEFA concentrations did not vary among the groups. In contrast to visceral fat, liver weight was significantly higher in the CLA group than in the control or LA groups, and the effects of CLA were attenuated by ARA. TAG and cholesterol were markedly accumulated in the liver with dietary CLA, whereas co-administration with ARA, at either concentration, suppressed CLA-induced lipid accumulation. Liver PGE(2) was enhanced by a combination of CLA and ARA when compared with CLA alone, but PGE(1) level was not significantly different among groups. In conclusion, fatty liver induced by CLA was attenuated by co-administration with ARA, furthermore, a combination of these fatty acids maintained the anti-obese effect of CLA. 相似文献

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) have been shown to decrease body fat content in pigs. It is possible that feeding pigs diets rich in CLA may increase carcass lipid CLA to levels that could provide health benefits when included as a part of a healthy diet. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to determine whether dietary CLA supplementation has any effect on the fatty acid composition of subcutaneous and intramuscular adipose tissue in pigs. Thirty-five female cross bred (Large White x Landrace) pigs (initial weight 57.2 kg and initial P2 back fat 11.5 mm) were used in the present study. Pigs were housed individually and randomly allocated to one of six dietary treatments (0.00, 1.25, 2.50, 5.00, 7.50 and 10.00 g CLA55 (55 g CLA isomers/100 g total fatty acids; Natural Lipids Ltd, Hovdebygda, Norway)/kg) and fed their respective diets for 8 weeks. Twelve CLA isomers in the diet and in pig tissue lipids were separated by Ag+-HPLC. CLA was incorporated at fivefold higher levels in subcutaneous fat as compared with intramuscular fat and in a dose-dependant manner. Overall, the transfer efficiency of CLA was maximized at 5.00 g CLA55/kg. However, there was clear selectivity in the uptake or incorporation of cis,trans-9,11 isomer over the trans,cis-10,12 isomer. In general, CLA supplementation produced significant changes in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue fatty acid composition, indicating that dietary CLA had a potent affect on lipid transport and metabolism in vivo. Significant increases in myristic, palmitic and palmitoleic acids and a reduction in arachidonic acid were observed, suggesting an alteration in activity of delta5-, delta6- and delta9-desaturases in pig adipose tissue. In conclusion, feeding pigs diets supplemented with CLA increases carcass lipid CLA, but also results in changes in the fatty acid profile in pig fat that could potentially outweigh the benefits of CLA. 相似文献

Dietary conjugated linoleic acid reduces lipid peroxidation by increasing oxidative stability in rats 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Kim HK Kim SR Ahn JY Cho IJ Yoon CS Ha TY 《Journal of nutritional science and vitaminology》2005,51(1):8-15
The antioxidative effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was examined by determining lipid peroxidation and antioxidative enzyme activities. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed one of the experimental diets-normal diet, vitamin E-deficient control diet, 0.5% CLA vitamin E-deficient diet, or 1.5% CLA vitamin E-deficient diet for 5 wk. Hepatic thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were increased in the vitamin E-deficient control group, but they were was significantly lowered in the CLA groups. Similarly, hepatic glutathione peroxidase activity was increased in the vitamin E-deficient diet and reduced by CLA supplementation. In addition, CLA caused a significant decrease in superoxide dismutase activity while having no effect on catalase activity. Analyses of the fatty acid composition revealed that dietary CLA was incorporated into hepatic microsomal membrane dose-dependently. Compared to the vitamin E-deficient control, CLA resulted in significantly higher saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids (palmitic and oleic acids) while lowering levels of oxidation-susceptible polyunsaturated fatty acids (linoleic, linolenic, and arachidonic acids) in both plasma and hepatic membrane. The concentrations of plasma cholesterol and triacylglycerol (TG) were lower in the 1.5% CLA group than in other groups. These results suggest that dietary CLA has antiatherosclerotic and antioxidant activity by increasing oxidative stability in plasma and hepatic membrane in the vitamin E-deficient rats. 相似文献

Dietary conjugated linoleic acids promote fatty streak formation in the C57BL/6 mouse atherosclerosis model. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are positional isomers of linoleic acid which have been suggested by some to possess antiatherosclerotic properties. To test this hypothesis, three groups of twenty C57BL/6 mice were fed on atherogenic diets containing: 5 g CLA/kg, 2.5 g CLA + 2.5 g linoleic acid/kg or 5 g linoleic acid/kg. All diets were fed for 15 weeks and contained (g/kg): triacylglycerol 145, free fatty acids 5, cholesterol 10 and cholic acid 5. At the completion of the experimental period, when data from both groups fed on CLA were combined, dietary CLA did not produce significant differences in body weight, serum total cholesterol concentration or serum HDL-cholesterol concentration. However, mice receiving CLA developed a significantly higher serum HDL-cholesterol: total cholesterol ratio and a significantly lower serum triacylglycerol concentration than controls. Despite causing a serum lipoprotein profile considered to be less atherogenic, the addition of CLA to the atherogenic diet increased the development of aortic fatty streaks. Considering the increased atherogenesis associated with dietary CLA in the present study, and the failure to demonstrate a significant beneficial effect of CLA in other animal studies, there is currently no conclusive evidence to support the hypothesis that CLA protect against atherogenesis. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown stimulatory effects of linoleic acid (LA, C18:2) on differentiation of rat muscle cells in culture (Allen et al. 1985), but there appears to be little investigation of the effects of other fatty acids. The present study therefore compared the effects of different fatty acids on muscle cell differentiation in vitro. L6 myoblasts were cultured (Dulbecco's Modified Eagles Medium + 10 % fetal calf serum) in six-well plates until 80 % confluent (day 0). Cells were then either harvested or the medium switched to differentiation medium (Dulbecco's Modified Eagles Medium+2 % horse serum), supplemented with fatty acid or drug treatments. Cells were harvested on days 0-5 and assayed for creatine kinase (CK), protein and DNA contents, to give a measure of differentiation (CK/DNA). Initial studies indicated a stimulatory effect of the cis9,trans11 (c9,t11) isomer of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) relative to control. By contrast, the trans10,cis12 (t10,c12) isomer of CLA inhibited differentiation. Further experiments indicated that inhibition of differentiation by the t10,c12 CLA isomer was dose-dependent (up to 200 microm) and may be via increased cell proliferation. LA and c9,t11 CLA stimulated differentiation at low concentrations (up to 50 microm), but inhibited differentiation at high concentrations (200 microm). In contrast, oleic acid stimulated differentiation at all concentrations, whereas the saturated fatty acid, palmitic acid, had no effect. The mechanism appeared not to involve either peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors alpha or gamma. The data suggest that only unsaturated fatty acids have an effect and the presence or absence of a cis-9 double bond may be important. 相似文献

We report the effect of an atherogenic diet supplemented with cis-9, trans-11-octadecadienoic acid (c9t11), linoleic acid (LA) or an isomeric mixture of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) on plasma lipids, weight gain and food intake of male Golden Syrian hamsters. Animals were assigned to three diet groups (n = 10), and fed nonpurified diet, supplemented with 10% hydrogenated coconut oil and 0.05% cholesterol for 6 wk. The first diet group was further supplemented with 1% CLA (CLA group), the second diet group with 0.2% c9t11 (c9t11 group) and the third group with 0.2% LA (LA group). The diets were designed to have equivalent levels of c9t11 in the CLA and c9t11 groups. At 2 and 6 wk of feeding, the CLA group had significantly lower plasma triglyceride and total cholesterol concentrations than either the c9t11 or the LA groups. HDL-cholesterol did not differ among diet groups. The CLA group had significantly lower weight gain but greater food intake than either the c9t11 or the LA groups. There were no significant differences between the c9t11 and the LA groups in any of the variables measured. We conclude that under our experimental conditions of short-term feeding, c9t11, thought to be the active compound in CLA, does not produce the same effect as the isomer mixture. 相似文献

The effect that conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has on glucose metabolism in experimental animals depends on nutritional conditions. Therefore, we hypothesized that CLA improves glucose utilization and insulin sensitivity in rats fed different levels of dietary linoleic acid (LA). We investigated the effect of CLA on the uptake, incorporation, and oxidation of glucose and glycogen synthesis in the soleus muscle of rats who were fed either LA-enriched (+LA) or LA-deprived (−LA) diets, under basal conditions and in the absence or presence of insulin and/or palmitate. For 60 days, male Wistar rats were fed 1 of 4 diets consisting of +LA, −LA, or +LA and −LA supplemented with CLA. Nutritional parameters and soleus glucose metabolism were evaluated. Under basal conditions, CLA enhanced soleus glucose oxidation, whereas increased glucose uptake and incorporation were observed in the −LA + CLA group. Conjugated linoleic acid–supplemented rats presented a lower response to insulin on glucose metabolism compared with non–CLA-supplemented rats. Palmitate partially inhibited the effect of insulin on the uptake and incorporation of glucose in the +LA and –LA groups but not in the +LA + CLA or −LA + CLA groups. Dietary CLA increased glucose utilization under basal conditions and prevented the palmitate-induced inhibition of glucose uptake and incorporation that is stimulated by insulin. The beneficial effects of CLA were better in LA-deprived rats. Conjugated linoleic acid may also have negative effects, such as lowering the insulin response capacity. These results demonstrate the complexities of the interactions between CLA, palmitate, and/or insulin to differentially modify muscle glucose utilization and show that the magnitude of the response is related to the dietary LA levels. 相似文献

Background Atherosclerosis is characterized by extensive thickening of the arterial intima partially resulting from deposition of collagen
by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Polyunsaturated fatty acids stimulate collagen formation through NF-κB activation.
Aim of the study The present study aimed to explore the effect of conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) which are known to inhibit NF-κB activation
on collagen formation by SMCs.
Methods Vascular SMCs were cultured with 50 μmol/l of CLA isomers (c9t11-CLA, t10c12-CLA) or linoleic acid (LA) and analysed for collagen
formation and NF-κB p50 transactivation.
Results Treatment with CLA isomers but not LA significantly reduced PDGF-stimulated [3H] proline incorporation into cell layer protein of SMCs without altering cell proliferation. Simultaneous treatment with
the PPARγ inhibitor T0070907 abrogated this effect. Treatment of SMCs with c9t11-CLA and t10c12-CLA significantly reduced
PDGF-induced NF-κB p50 activation.
Conclusions CLA isomers inhibit PDGF-stimulated collagen production by vascular SMCs, which is considered to be a hallmark of atherosclerosis,
in a PPARγ-dependent manner. Whether inhibition of the NF-κB-pathway is of significance for the reduction of collagen formation
by CLA isomers needs further investigation. 相似文献

Dietary conjugated linoleic acids alter adipose tissue and milk lipids of pregnant and lactating sows 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) have been shown to affect fatty acid synthesis in various tissues. The objective of the study was to compare the effect of a commercial source of CLA with a linoleic acid-enriched oil (LA), supplied to 12 multiparous sows during gestation and lactation, on adipose tissue and milk fatty acid composition. The CLA isomers detected in the CLA oil were (in order of magnitude) c9,t11; t10,c12; c9,c11; t9,t11/t10,t12 and c10,c12 and amounted to 58.9 g/100 g fat. Biopsies were taken from the backfat on d 7 and 97 of gestation and milk samples were collected on d 2, 9, 16 and 23 after farrowing. Collection of colostrum and mature milk samples took place at 1100 h for sows who farrowed in the morning or at 1500 h for those who farrowed in the afternoon. All major CLA isomers in the supplement were transferred to the tissue and milk fat and, compared with the LA group, significantly increased saturated fatty acid and decreased monounsaturated fatty acid levels in the tissue and milk. These findings suggest a distinct involvement of CLA in the de novo fatty acid synthesis and desaturation process in the adipose tissue and mammary gland. Estimated transfer efficiency of dietary CLA isomers was 41-52% for the backfat and 55-69% for the mature milk. The incorporation and uptake efficiency seemed to be selective with the highest values found for c9,t11-CLA. Overall, dietary CLA supplementation of sows during gestation and lactation markedly altered backfat and milk fatty acid composition. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether altered dietary essential fatty acid (linoleic and arachidonic acid) concentrations alter sensitivity to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)-induced body fat loss or DNA fragmentation. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: Mice were fed diets containing soy oil (control), coconut oil [essential fatty acid deficient (EFAD)], or fish oil (FO) for 42 days, and then diets were supplemented with a mixture of CLA isomers (0.5% of the diet) for 14 days. Body fat index, fat pad and liver weights, DNA fragmentation in adipose tissue, and fatty acid profiles of adipose tissue were determined. RESULTS: The EFAD diet decreased (p < 0.05) linoleic and arachidonic acid in mouse adipose tissue but did not affect body fat. Dietary CLA caused a reduction (p < 0.05) in body fat. Mice fed the EFAD diet and then supplemented with CLA exhibited a greater reduction (p < 0.001) in body fat (20.21% vs. 6.94% in EFAD and EFAD + CLA-fed mice, respectively) compared with mice fed soy oil. Dietary FO decreased linoleic acid and increased arachidonic acid in mouse adipose tissue. Mice fed FO or CLA were leaner (p < 0.05) than control mice. FO + CLA-fed mice did not differ in body fat compared with FO-fed mice. Adipose tissue apoptosis was increased (p < 0.001) in CLA-supplemented mice and was not affected by fat source. DISCUSSION: Reductions in linoleic acid concentration made mice more sensitive to CLA-induced body fat loss only when arachidonic acid concentrations were also reduced. Dietary essential fatty acids did not affect CLA-induced DNA fragmentation. 相似文献

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) have been shown to improve human health. They are derived from the microbial conversion of dietary linoleic acid (cis-9,cis-12-18 : 2 (LA)) in the rumen. An investigation was undertaken to determine the role of ruminal ciliate protozoa v. bacteria in the formation of CLA and its precursor in animal tissues, vaccenic acid (trans-11-18 : 1 (VA)). Mixed protozoa from the sheep rumen contained at least two to three times more unsaturated fatty acids, including CLA and VA, than bacteria. Different species had different composition, with larger fibrolytic species such as Epidinium ecaudatum caudatum containing more than ten times more CLA and VA than some small species, including Entodinium nanellum. In incubations with ruminal microbial fractions (bacterial fraction (BAC), protozoal fraction (PRO)), LA metabolism was very similar in strained ruminal fluid (SRF) and in the BAC, while the PRO had LA-metabolising activity an order of magnitude lower. Using PCR-based methods, no genes homologous to fatty acid desaturase genes were found in cDNA libraries from ruminal protozoa. The absence of an alternative route of VA/CLA formation via desaturation of stearate was confirmed by incubations of SRF, BAC or PRO with [14C]stearate. Thus, although protozoa are rich in CLA and VA, they appear to lack the ability to form these two fatty acids from LA or stearate. The most likely explanation is that protozoa preferentially incorporate CLA and VA formed by bacteria. The implication of the present findings is that the flow of unsaturated fatty acids, including CLA and VA, from the rumen could depend on the flow of protozoa rather than bacteria. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) have lipid-modifying and antiinflammatory properties. The effects of supplement mixtures of these fatty acids on plasma lipids and the fatty acid compositions of serum phospholipids have received little attention. OBJECTIVE: The objective was to determine the effects of different levels of GLA supplementation together with a constant intake of EPA plus DHA on the triacylglycerol-lowering effect of EPA plus DHA alone and on the fatty acid patterns (eicosanoid precursors) of serum phospholipids. DESIGN: Thirty-one women were assigned to 1 of 4 groups, equalized on the basis of their fasting triacylglycerol concentrations. They received supplements providing 4 g EPA+DHA (4:0, EPA+DHA:GLA; control group), 4 g EPA+DHA plus 1 g GLA (4:1), 2 g GLA (4:2), or 4 g GLA (4:4) daily for 28 d. Plasma lipids and fatty acids of serum phospholipids were measured on days 0 and 28. RESULTS: Plasma triacylglycerol concentrations were significantly lower on day 28 than on day 0 in the 4:0, 4:1, and 4:2 groups. LDL cholesterol decreased significantly (by 11.3%) in the 4:2 group. Dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid increased significantly in serum phospholipids only in the 4:2 and 4:4 groups; however, total n-3 fatty acids increased in all 4 groups. CONCLUSIONS: A mixture of 4 g EPA+DHA and 2 g GLA favorably altered blood lipid and fatty acid profiles in healthy women. On the basis of calculated PROCAM values, the 4:2 group was estimated to have a 43% reduction in the 10-y risk of myocardial infarction. 相似文献

Feeding diets supplemented with t10c12 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) to growing mice reduces body fat mass. The effects are evident after 1 wk and maximal by 3 wk and are accompanied by reductions in fat cell size. This may complicate direct comparisons with adipocytes from control mice. Accordingly, we investigated the early biochemical events that occur within adipocytes during the first week of CLA feeding, before changes in the size of adipocytes have occurred. Female ICR mice were fed a control diet or a diet supplemented with 0.5 g/100 g of CLA for 4 d, at which time there were no differences in body weight, fat mass or adipocyte size (except that CLA-fed mice had fewer adipocytes >90 micro m in diameter). Parametrial adipose tissue from the CLA-fed mice had significantly reduced heparin-releasable lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and intracellular LPL activities and significantly reduced glucose incorporation into CO(2), fatty acid and glycerol. There were no differences between adipose tissues from CLA-fed or control mice in the ratios of 16:0 to 16:1 and 18:0 to 18:1 fatty acids or in norepinephrine-stimulated lipolysis. Serum insulin levels in food-deprived mice, measured at 4 d and 7 wk, did not differ between groups nor did the concentration of free fatty acids in serum of food-deprived or fed mice measured at the same time points. In mice, CLA-induced inhibition of heparin-releasable LPL and glucose metabolism may be the most important early steps leading to subsequent body fat reduction. In addition, CLA does not appear to enhance lipolysis in mouse adipose tissue in vivo. 相似文献
