Conjugated linoleic acids alter bone fatty acid composition and reduce ex vivo prostaglandin E2 biosynthesis in rats fed n‐6 or n‐3 fatty acids

Li, Yong, Watkins, Bruce A.·1998·Lipids

Abstract

This study evaluated the effects of conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) on tissue fatty acid composition and ex vivo prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2) production in rats given diets varying in n‐6 and n‐3 fatty acids. Four groups of rats were given a basal semipurified diet (AIN‐93G) containing 70 g/kg of added fat for 42 d. The fat treatments were formulated to contain CLA (0 vs. 10 g/kg of diet) and n‐6 (soybean oil having an n‐6/n‐3 ratio of 7.3) and n‐3 fatty acids (menhaden oil+safflower oil having an n‐6/n‐3 ratio of 1.8) in different ratios in a 2×2 factorial design. Fatty acids in liver, serum, muscle, heart, brain, spleen, and bone (cortical, marrow, and periosteum) were analyzed by capillary gas‐liquid chromatography. The various dietary lipid treatments did not affect growth; however, CLA improved feed efficiency. The CLA isomers were found in all rat tissues analyzed although their concentrations varied. Dietary CLA decreased the concentrations of 16∶1n−7, 18∶1, total monounsaturates and n−6 fatty acids, but increased the concentrations of n−3 fatty acids (22∶5n−3 and 22∶6n−3), and saturates in the tissues analyzed. Ex vivo PGE 2 production in bone organ culture was decreased by n−3 fatty acids and CLA. We speculate that CLA reduced the concentration of 18∶1 fatty acids by inhibiting liver Δ9‐desaturase activity. The fact that CLA lowered ex vivo PGE 2 production in bone organ culture suggests that these conjugated fatty acids have the potential to influence bone formation and resorption.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
