Abstract
Hepatic metabolism of vaccenic acid (VA), especially its conversion into CLA, was studied in the bovine (ruminant species that synthesizes CLA) and in the rat (model for non-ruminant) by using the in vitro technique of liver explants. Liver tissue samples were collected from fed animals (5 male Wistar rats and 5 Charolais steers) and incubated at 37 degrees C for 17 h under an atmosphere of 95% O2/5% CO2 in medium supplemented with 0.75 mM of FA mixture and with 55 microM [1-14C]VA. VA uptake was about sixfold lower in bovine than in rat liver slices (P< 0.01). For both species, VA that was oxidized to partial oxidation products represented about 20% of VA incorporated by cells. The chemical structure of VA was not modified in bovine liver cells, whereas in rat liver cells, 3.2% of VA was converted into 16:0 and only 0.33% into CLA. The extent of esterification of VA was similar for both animal species (70-80% of incorporated VA). Secretion of VA as part of VLDL particles was very low and similar in rat and bovine liver (around 0.07% of incorporated VA). In conclusion, characteristics of the hepatic metabolism of VA were similar for rat and bovine animals, the liver not being involved in tissue VA conversion into CLA in spite of its high capacity for FA desaturation especially in the rat. This indicates that endogenous synthesis of CLA should take place exclusively in peripheral tissues.

Abstract
Human studies suggest that CLA changes metabolism, possibly through effects on mRNA expression of desaturase and elongase enzymes. In this respect, differential effects of the two most common dietary CLA isomers, cis-9,trans-11 (c9,t11) and trans-10,cis-12 (t10,c12) CLA, have hardly been studied. We therefore gave 25 healthy, overweight men and women daily for 6 wk a drinkable dairy product containing 3 g of oil that was rich in oleic acid. For the next 18 wk, the control group (n = 7) continued to use this product, whereas the second (n = 9) and third groups (n = 9) received products with 3 g of purified c9,t11 CLA or t10,c12 CLA. For each gram of c9,t11 CLA consumed, the proportion in plasma phospholipids increased by 0.26%. For t10, c12 CLA, this value was 0.20%. The t10,c12 CLA isomer increased plasma TAG levels of conjugated 18:3, whereas c9,t11 CLA increased those of both conjugated 18:3 and 20:3. In plasma phospholipids, the delta9 desaturation index of 18:0 (18:1 n-9/18:0) was decreased by t10,c12 CLA (P= 0.03 for diet effects), and the delta6 desaturation index [(18:3n-6 + 20:3n-6)/18:2n-6] was decreased by both CLA isomers (P < 0.01 for diet effects). The delta5 desaturation index (20:4n-6/20:3n-6) and the delta9 desaturation index of 16:0 (16:1 n-7/16:0) were not affected. No effects were seen on mRNA expression of desaturases and elongase in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). We therefore conclude that incorporation of c9,t11 and t10,c12 CLA into plasma lipids reflects dietary intakes. Compared with oleic acid, delta9 and delta6 desaturation indices in plasma phospholipids are decreased after consumption of c9,t11 or t10,c12 CLA. Effects on desaturation indices were, however, not reflected by changes at the transcriptional level for the various desaturases and elongase enzymes in PBMC.

Abstract
The present study was designed to determine whether the ability of vaccenic acid (trans-11 18:1; VA) to reduce the risk of chemically induced mammary carcinogenesis in rats is direct or is mediated via conversion to cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). We previously reported that dietary VA caused a dose-dependent increase in the accumulation of CLA in the mammary fat pad, which was accompanied by a parallel decrease in the risk of mammary tumorigenesis. Specifically, our objective was to determine whether inhibiting Delta9-desaturase with cyclopropenoic fatty acids, supplied by sterculic oil (SO), would reverse the cancer-protective effect observed with a dietary supplement of VA-enriched butter. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with a single dose of carcinogen (methylnitrosourea) and were fed 1 of 4 diets: 1) low VA (0.13% of diet), 2) low VA + SO (0.4% of diet), 3) high VA (1.60% of diet), and 4) high VA + SO. After 6 wk, the mammary glands were evaluated histologically for the appearance of premalignant lesions and were stained with bromodeoxyuridine to determine the extent of cell proliferation, and fatty acids were analyzed in plasma, liver, and mammary fat pad. The VA-enriched diet increased the tissue content of CLA, reduced the risk of developing premalignant lesions, and decreased the proliferative activity of premalignant cells in the mammary gland. Treatment with SO reversed the effects of VA. The anticarcinogenic effect of VA is predominantly, perhaps exclusively, mediated through its conversion to cis-9, trans-11 CLA via Delta9-desaturase, and when this conversion is blocked by SO, the biological response to VA is attenuated.

Abstract
Proximate composition and fatty acid profile, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers included, were determined in separable lean of raw and cooked lamb rib loins. The cooking methods compared, which were also investigated for cooking yields and true nutrient retention values, were dry heating of fat-on cuts and moist heating of fat-off cuts; the latter method was tested as a sort of dietetic approach against the more traditional former type. With significantly (P < 0.05) lower cooking losses, dry heating of fat-on rib-loins produced slightly (although only rarely significantly) higher retention values for all of the nutrients considered, including CLA isomers. On the basis of the retention values obtained, both techniques led to a minimum migration of lipids into the separable lean, which was higher (P < 0.05) in dry heating than in moist heating, and was characterized by the prevalence of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. On the whole, the response to cooking of the class of CLA isomers (including that of the nutritionally most important isomer cis-9,trans-11) was more similar to that of the monounsaturated than the polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract
The chemistry of conjugated fatty acids, specifically octadecadienoic acids (18:2; commonly referred to as conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA), has provided many challenges to lipid analysts because of their unique physical properties and the many possible positional and geometric isomers. After the acid-labile properties of CLAs during analytic procedures were overcome, it became evident that natural products, specifically dairy fats, contain one dominant (c9,t11-CLA), 3 intermediate (t7,c9-, t9,c11-, and t11,c13-CLA), and up to 20 more minor CLA isomers. The best analytic techniques to date include a combination of gas chromatography that uses 100-m highly polar capillary columns, silver ion-HPLC, and a combination of silver ion-thin-layer chromatography and gas chromatography to analyze the CLA and trans 18:1 isomers, because some of them serve as precursors of CLA in biological systems. These analytic techniques have assisted commercial suppliers to prepare pure CLA isomers and have permitted the evaluation of individual CLA isomers for their nutritional and biological activity in animal and human systems. It is increasingly evident that different CLA isomers have distinctly different physiologic and biochemical properties. These techniques are essential to evaluate dairy fats for their CLA content, to design experimental diets to increase the amount of CLA in dairy fats, and to determine the CLA profile in these CLA-enriched dairy fats. These improved techniques are used to evaluate the CLA profile in pork products from pigs fed different commercial CLA mixtures.

Abstract
Dietary fatty acids are incorporated into atheromatous plaques mainly in the form of cholesterol esters. Physicochemical properties of the plaque (e. g. mechanical strength) depend on its fatty acid composition. Trans isomers of unsaturated fatty acids (TFA) are known to reduce the availability of fatty acid precursors for the synthesis of anticoagulant PG(1) and PG(3) prostaglandins. The present study was undertaken to determine the content of trans isomers in atheromatous plaques and to search for correlations between trans isomers in the plaque and adipose tissue. Atheromatous plaques were obtained from 31 patients who underwent surgery due to atherosclerotic stenosis of the abdominal aorta, iliac or femoral arteries. Fatty acids were extracted and separated as methyl esters using gas chromatography (GC) with an internal standard. Correlations were searched for with statistical methods, taking the level of significance as p < 0.05. We found spatial and positional isomers of sixteen- and eighteen-carbon fatty acids in plaques and adipose tissue, with elaidic acid (C18:1 trans-9) being the most abundant. Every plaque and adipose tissue sample contained linolelaidic acid (C18:2 trans-9 trans-12) which is derived exclusively from linoleic acid, as well as conjugated dienes of linoleic acid (CLA) produced during oxidative processes. The presence of trans isomers of fatty acids in the atheromatous plaque seems to be of relevance to plaque formation. Of much concern is the detection of elaidic and linolelaidic acids which adversely affect the physiologically important metabolism of eicosanoids. The TFA pool in adipose tissue has little effect on the amount of these acids in the atheromatous plaque. Apparently, the presence of TFA in atheromatous plaques is the result of processes taking place during plaque formation and maturation.

Abstract
The present study was designed to examine the effects of increasing dietary levels of vaccenic acid (VA) and cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on chemically induced mammary carcinogenesis in rats. Both fatty acids were provided as a natural component in butter fat. The conversion of VA to CLA by delta9-desaturase was documented previously in several species, including rats and humans. Specifically, our objective was to determine the relative contribution of dietary VA and CLA to the tissue concentration of CLA and its ability to inhibit the development of mammary carcinomas. A total of 7 diets were formulated with varying levels of CLA and VA. The overall dietary treatment scheme was designed to evaluate the modulation of mammary cancer risk by 1). small increases of CLA in the presence of a low level of VA and 2). more substantial increases of VA against a background of low levels of CLA. As expected, small increases in dietary CLA at the low end of the CLA dose-response range did not reduce tumorigenesis. In contrast, there was a distinct and marked inhibitory response to VA that was dose dependent. The effect of VA was magnified in this experiment because the dose range of VA tested was much broader than that of CLA. Fatty acid analysis showed that the conversion of dietary VA to CLA resulted in a dose-dependent increase in the accumulation of CLA in the mammary fat pad, which was accompanied by a parallel decrease in tumor formation in the mammary gland. The finding confirms that the conversion of VA to CLA is as important for cancer prevention as the dietary supply of CLA. Thus, VA is also anticarcinogenic, and VA and CLA represent functional food components that are present in ruminant fat.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to determine whether vaccenic acid (VA; t11-18:1) is converted to c9,t11-CLA in human mammary (MCF-7) and colon (SW480) cancer cell lines and whether VA influences cell viability and other CLA-bioresponsive markers. When cells were incubated in the presence of VA at concentrations of 5 to 20 microg/mL, both VA and c9,t11-CLA increased in cellular lipids in a dose-dependent manner. After 4 d of incubation of SW480 and MCF-7 cells with VA (20 microg/mL), c9,t11-CLA increased from undetectable levels to 8.57 and 12.14 g/100 g FAME in cellular lipids, respectively. VA supplementation for 4 d at 5, 10, and 15 microg/mL had no effect on cell growth, whereas 20 microg/mL significantly (P < 0.05) reduced cell growth in both cell lines. VA (20 microg/mL) treatment induced DNA fragmentation and significantly (P < 0.05) depleted cytosolic GSH levels in the SW480 cell line after 4 d of incubation, suggesting that apoptosis was the mode of cell death induced by VA. Both VA and c9,t11-CLA reduced (P < 0.05) total ras expression in SW480 cells. 14C-Arachidonic acid uptake into the MG fraction was significantly increased (P < 0.05) in both cell lines while uptake into the phospholipid fraction decreased in response to VA. VA treatment significantly (P < 0.05) increased 8-epi-prostaglandin F2alpha in both cell lines. The data indicate that growth suppression and cellular responses of both cells lines are likely mediated by VA desaturation to c9,t11-CLA via delta9-desaturase.

Abstract
Symmetrical disaturated triacylglycerols of the structure SUS, where S is stearic acid (18:0) and U is an unsaturated fatty acid, either oleic (O; 9cis-18:1), linoleic (L; 9cis,12cis-18:2), or linolenic (Ln; 9cis,12cis,15cis-18:3), are important components providing functionality to interesterified fat blends and structurally modified oils. Nonsymmetrical triacylglycerols of the structure SSU can significantly change melting point and solid fat content profiles. To characterize the physical properties of pure and symmetrical and nonsymmetrical triacylglycerol mixtures, the same reaction sequence has been used to prepare multigram quantities of triacylglycerols SUS and SSU. Tristearin was converted to a mixture of mono-, di-, and triacylglycerols, and the 1,3- and 1,2-diacylglycerol fraction was isolated by silica column chromatography. The 1,3-diacylglycerols were removed by crystallization from acetone and esterified with the appropriate fatty acid to form the symmetrical triacylglycerols with >99% SUS structure. The more difficult to obtain 1,2-diacylglycerols were prepared by esterification of the enriched 1,2-diacylglycerol fraction (80-86% 1,2-diacylglycerols) remaining after removal of much of the 1,3-isomer by crystallization, but silver resin or silver nitrate impregnated silica gel chromatography was required to isolate the nonsymmetrical triacylglycerols. SSL and SSLn were prepared in purities of >98% by this procedure, but not SSO. Silver ion HPLC was found to be as accurate as, and more rapid than, lipolysis/gas chromatography for the determination of the isomeric purities of the synthesized triacylglycerols.

Abstract
Raw or extruded blends of ground canola seeds and canola meal were used to compare in vitro and in situ lag times and rates of disappearance due to ruminal biohydrogenation of unsaturated fatty acids. The in situ study resulted in higher lag times for biohydrogenation for polyunsaturated fatty acids and lower rates of biohydrogenation of unsaturated fatty acids than the in vitro study, so the in situ biohydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids was not complete at 24 h of incubation. With both methods, rates of biohydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids were higher than for cis-delta9C18:1. Extrusion did not affect the rate of biohydrogenation of cis-delta9C18:1, but resulted in higher rates of biohydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids with higher proportions of trans intermediates of biohydrogenation at 4 h of incubation in vitro and at 8 h of incubation in situ. These results suggest that extrusion affects the isomerization of polyunsaturated fatty acids, rather than the hydrogenation steps. In conclusion, in vitro and in situ methods can both show differences of ruminal metabolism of unsaturated fatty acids due to processing, but the methods provide very different estimates of the rates of disappearance due to biohydrogenation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vaccenic acid (11-trans octadecenoic acid; VA), a major trans fatty acid in the fat of ruminants, is produced in the rumen and converted in tissues to rumenic acid (9-cis, 11-trans octadecenoic acid; RA), an isomer of conjugated linoleic acid, by Delta(9)-desaturase. There are indications that this conversion also occurs in humans. OBJECTIVE The aim of this controlled intervention was to study the conversion of VA to RA in humans after consumption of diets with increasing amounts of VA. DESIGN Thirty healthy subjects consumed a baseline diet rich in oleic acid for 2 wk. The subjects were then divided into 3 groups (n = 10 per group) and provided a diet containing 1.5, 3.0, or 4.5 g VA/d for 9 d. All diets contained equal amounts of macronutrients and differed only in their fatty acid compositions. The fats were mixed into conventional foods, and nearly all food was provided during the study. RESULTS The proportion of VA in serum total fatty acids increased 94%, 307%, and 620% above baseline with the 1.5-, 3.0-, and 4.5-g diets, respectively. This was associated with a linear increase in the proportion of RA. The conversion rate was 19% on average, with significant interindividual differences with all 3 intakes of VA. The urinary excretion of 8-iso-prostaglandin F(2alpha) increased in all groups (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The results quantify the desaturation of VA to RA in humans. Conversion is likely to contribute significantly to the amount of RA available to the body, and dietary intakes of VA should thus be taken into account when predicting RA status.

Abstract
We examined the effects of feeding conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) to adult male hamsters on several components of energy metabolism and body composition. Hamsters (n = 54) were assigned for 6-8 wk to one of three diets: 1) a standard diet (in percentage energy: lipids, 33, carbohydrates, 49, and proteins, 18); 2) to the standard diet augmented with the 9c,11t-isomer of CLA to 1.6% of energy (R group); or 3) the standard diet augmented with the 9c,11t-isomer and the 10t,12c-CLA isomer to 3.2 (1.6 + 1.6) % of energy (CLA mix group). (15)N uniformly labeled milk-protein was included in the diet to measure the incorporation of dietary protein into liver and muscle. Basal metabolic rate, thermogenic response to feeding and energy expenditure during spontaneous activity or during an exercise at approximately 60% of VO(2max) were measured. Carnitine palmitoyltransferase-I (CPT-I), leptin, insulin and triiodothyronine concentrations, as well as the in vivo overall adiposity changes were also determined. After 6 wk, the whole-body triglyceride content determined in vivo by NMR was significantly higher in the R group than in the control and CLA mix groups. The CLA mix group differed from the others in the lack of body triglyceride accumulation between d 21 and d 45 of the study, and the appearance of a slight insulin-resistance (homeostatic model assessment index, P < 0.05). Paradoxically, the lack of effect on whole-body lipid oxidation was associated with a greater CPT-I-specific activity in tissues of both CLA-fed groups (P < 0.05). No other major effects of CLA feeding were detected. In conclusion, CLA supplementation in hamsters did not affect adipose weight or the components of energy expenditure despite a theoretically higher capacity of red muscle to oxidize lipids. Only a CLA mixture prevented whole-body triglyceride accumulation over time.

Abstract
Milkfat is a complex mixture of many diverse FA, some of which have demonstrated health benefits including anticancer properties. Attempts are under way to enrich milkfats with long-chain n-3 PUFA and CLA. It has been recommended that the analysis of these milkfats requires gas chromatography (GC) equipped with long, highly polar capillary columns. However, many analyses have been reported using CARBOWAX type (polyethylene glycol) capillary columns, such as SUPELCOWAX 10, even though the separation characteristics of many of the FA and their isomers present in milkfats have not been described in detail. This includes the isomers of CLA, cis- and trans-octadecenoic acid (18:1), linoleic acid (18:2n-6), and linolenic acid (18:3n-3), and the long-chain PUFA. On the other hand, the resolution of these FA and their isomers has been more fully described using the highly polar capillary columns, such as CP Sil 88 and SP2560 because of the improved resolution obtained using these polar columns. The present study was undertaken to characterize the separation of these FA present in milkfats using a 60-m SUPELCOWAX 10 column, to compare the results to those from a 100-m CP Sil 88 column, and to determine if these two columns could possibly serve to complement each other for the analysis of total milkfat. The advantages of the SUPELCOWAX 10 column were a better resolution of the short-chain saturated from their monounsaturated FA (MUFA) analogs, and a complete separation of the alpha-linolenic (18:3n-3) and eicosadecenoic acid (20:1) isomers. It also provided an alternative elution order of the linoleic (18:2n-6), 18:3n-3 and gamma-linolenic (18:3n-6) acid isomers. On the other hand, the CP Sil 88 column provided a better resolution of the CLA isomers, MUFA, the isolated cis and trans MUFA fractions, the PUFA, and many the 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-3 isomers. A complete analysis of milk lipids using the CP Sil 88 column required the prior separation of total FAME using silver ion-TLC. The results of the present study confirm that the 100-m highly polar capillary GC columns are mandatory for the analysis of milk lipids, and at best, the 60 m SUPELCOWAX 10 capillary column serves as a complementary GC column to provide different separations in certain regions based on its intermediate polarity.

Abstract
The term conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) refers to a collection of positional and geometrical isomers of octadeca- dienoic acid with conjugated double bonds. CLA has been shown to possess several beneficial activities in different experimental models, however, out of 28 isomers only two, c9, t11 and t10, c12 have been thus far demonstrated to be biologically active. The discovery that it can be elongated and desaturated as a regular fatty acid in human and animal tissues brought a new possibility that its activity may be related to its properties as a peculiar unsaturated fatty acid. In fact, CLA is able to be incorporated in lipid classes as oleic acid, accumulating in those tissues rich in neutral lipids; to be metabolized as linoleic acid and so influencing linoleic acid desaturation and elongation; and to be beta oxidized in peroxisomes which may account for, through activation of PPARs, its ability to increase free retinol levels and influence gene expression. These activities are amplified where CLA accumulates more such as mammary and adipose tissues and may explain its peculiar beneficial properties, at relative low dietary concentrations, in these tissues. Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that CLA can be endogenously formed by delta 9 desaturation of vaccenic acid (t11 18:1) thus forming the isomer c9, t11. Either endogenously formed or through dietary intake, CLA showed to be metabolized in the same way and to exert the same biological properties. We may conclude that a regular intake of CLA, or/and vaccenic acid as its precursor, should work as an excellent preventive agent by modulating lipid metabolism in target tissues thus conferring protection against the attack of insults of different type.

Abstract
In this article, we report the first stereochemical study of an enzymatic 1,4-dehydrogenation reaction, namely, the transformation of (Z)-11-tetradecenoic acid into (E,E)-10,12-tetradecadienoic acid, involved in the sex pheromone biosynthesis of the moth Spodoptera littoralis. The investigation was carried out using the labeled substrates (R)-[10-(2)H]- and (S)-[10-(2)H]-tridecanoic acids ((R)-2 and (S)-2, respectively) and (R)-[2,2,3,3,13-(2)H(5)]- and (S)-[2,2,3,3,13-(2)H(5)]-tetradecanoic acids ((R)-1 and (S)-1, respectively). Probes (R)-2 and (S)-2 were prepared as described in a previous article.(1) The synthesis of the pentadeuterated chiral substrates (R)-1 and (S)-1 was accomplished by kinetic resolution of the racemic 12-tridecyn-2-ol (6) with immobilized porcine pancreatic lipase. The enantiomerically pure alcohols (R)-6 and (S)-6 were transformed into the final acids (S)-1 and (R)-1, respectively, by a sequence of well-established reactions. The analyses of methanolyzed lipidic extracts from glands incubated separatedly with each individual probe showed that in the transformation of (Z)-11-tetradecenoic acid into (E,E)-10,12-tetradecadienoic acid, both pro-(R) hydrogen atoms at C-10 and C-13 are removed from the substrate. This is the first example reported of a desaturase with pro-(R)/pro-(R) stereospecificities that gives rise to (E)-double bonds. A mechanistic explanation for the stereochemical outcome of this reaction is advanced.

Abstract
Data from recent publications on bovine milk lipids are presented and discussed. This includes extraction of lipids, triacylglycerols, phospholipids, other complex lipids, sterols, isoflavones, and fatty acids. Improved gas-liquid and high performance liquid chromatography were used. Data on the trans and cis isomers of fatty acid and of conjugated linoleic acids are given, and the analyses are described. Papers about the lipids in milks and dairy products from the United States are few; where with the exception of trans-fatty acid isomers and conjugated linoleic acids, almost no research has been reported.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The habitual intake of the conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomer C18:2 c9t11 (rumenic acid, RA) was assessed and compared with plasma biomarkers. DESIGN The newly developed food-frequency questionnaire (FFQ) comprised 46 food items and was validated by means of a 7-day estimated record (7-d ER). Additionally, the dietary intake results of the FFQ, 7-d ER, the last day (1-d ER) and the last two days (2-d ER) before blood sampling of the 7-d ER were compared to the content of C18:2 c9t11 in plasma phospholipids (PL) and triglycerides (TG) as possible biomarkers. SETTING Metabolic unit of a university institute. SUBJECTS Fifty-seven students completed both dietary instruments. From all participants fasting blood samples were taken. RESULTS Mean daily intake of rumenic acid was 246 mg day(-1) and 323 mg day(-1) as measured by the FFQ and the 7-d-ER, respectively. The degree of correspondence between both assessment methods was acceptable; this is indicated by a total kappa value of kappa = 0.31 (P < 0.01) and a Pearson correlation coefficient of r = 0.46 (P < 0.01). Rumenic acid content in plasma triglycerides was twice as high as found in phospholipids. The correlation between the intake results gained with the 7-d ER and the plasma PL contents of C18:2 c9t11 was statistically significant; this was also true for the C18:2 c9tl 1 values in plasma TG compared with the intake results of one or two days before blood sampling. CONCLUSIONS Regarding RA intake, the FFQ data revealed an acceptable degree of correspondence with the 7-d ER data but failed to show significant correlations to the potential biomarkers. However, with respect to the results of the 7-d ER, the RA content in plasma PL and TG are possible biomarkers of short-term and medium-term intake, respectively.

Abstract
Biomedical studies with animal models have demonstrated that cis-9, trans-11 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), the predominant isomer found in milk fat from dairy cows, has anticarcinogenic effects. We recently demonstrated endogenous synthesis of cis-9, trans-11 CLA from ruminally derived trans-11 C18:1 by Delta(9)-desaturase in lactating dairy cows. The present study further examined endogenous synthesis of cis-9, trans-11 CLA and quantified its importance by increasing substrate supply using partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (PHVO) as a source of trans-11 C18:1 and blocking endogenous synthesis using sterculic oil (SO) as a source of cyclopropene fatty acids which specifically inhibit Delta(9)-desaturase. Four cows were abomasally infused with 1) control, 2) PHVO, 3) SO, and 4) PHVO+SO in a 4 x 4 Latin square design. With infusion of PHVO, cis-9, trans-11 CLA was increased by 17% in milk fat. Consistent with inhibition of desaturase, SO treatments increased milk fat ratios for the fatty acid pairs effected by Delta(9)-desaturase, C14:0/cis-9 C14:1, C16:0/cis-9 C16:1, and C18:0/cis-9 C18:1. The role of endogenous synthesis of CLA was evident from the 60-65% reduction in cis-9, trans-11 CLA which occurred in milk fat with SO treatments. cis-9 C14:1 originates from desaturation of C14:0 by Delta(9)-desaturase and can be used to estimate the extent of SO inhibition of Delta(9)-desaturase. When this correction factor was applied, endogenous synthesis was estimated to account for 78% of the total cis-9, trans-11 CLA in milk fat. Thus, endogenous synthesis was the major source of cis-9, trans-11 CLA in milk fat of lactating cows.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that a crude mixture of commercially available conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers suppressed triglyceride (TG) content and induced apoptosis in post-confluent cultures of murine 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Furthermore, we found that 100 &mgr;M of trans-10, cis-12 isomer of CLA had a greater TG-lowering and apoptotic effect than the crude mixture of CLA isomers. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to: 1) compare the potencies of the two main isomers found in the crude mixture of CLA isomers, e.g. cis-9, trans-11 (41%) and trans-10, cis-12 (44%); and 2) determine if the TG-reducing actions of CLA could be attenuated by the addition of increasing levels of linoleic acid to the cultures. Preadipocyte differentiation was assessed on day 7 of the differentiation protocol by measuring TG content (per 10(6) cells), cell size, and lipid staining. In experiment 1, post-confluent cultures of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes treated for the first 6 d of differentiation with 100 &mgr;M of a crude mixture of CLA isomers or 44 &mgr;M of trans-10, cis-12 CLA had less TG content than all other cultures. In contrast, cultures supplemented with 41 &mgr;M of the cis-9, trans-11 CLA isomer had the same amount of TG as the BSA controls. In experiment 2, post-confluent cultures of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes treated for the first 6 d of differentiation with 50 &mgr;M trans-10, cis-12 CLA had less TG content and a greater number of smaller cells (10-12.5 microns) compared to all other treatments. CLA-treated cultures supplemented with increasing levels of linoleic acid (50-200 &mgr;M) had greater TG contents and greater numbers of larger cells (15-20 microns) than cultures treated with 50 &mgr;M of the trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer alone. These data demonstrate that: 1) the TG-lowering effects of the crude mixture of CLA isomers is due almost exclusively to the trans-10, cis-12 isomer; and 2) linoleic acid partially reverses CLA's attenuation of TG content, suggesting that these unsaturated fatty acids may compete for incorporation into TG or phospholipid-derived eicosanoids that regulate preadipocyte differentiation.
