Abstract

Data from a number of researchers have shown that conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has some beneficial health activities in animal models. Because inflammatory responses are associated with pathophysiology of many diseases, the aim of this study is to explore the effect and mechanism of CLA in the regulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses in RAW 264.7 macrophages. The addition of increasing levels of CLA proportionally augmented the incorporation of CLA in cultures. CLA diminished LPS-induced mRNA and protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) as well as subsequent production of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E(2), respectively. We further examined the effect of CLA on LPS-induced NF-kappaB activation by Western blot and the electrophoretic mobility shift assay. The addition of CLA at 200 microM significantly diminished LPS-induced protein expression of the cytoplasmic phosphorylated inhibitor kappaBalpha and nuclear p65 as well as NF-kappaB nuclear protein-DNA binding affinity. In conclusion, our data suggest that CLA may inhibit LPS-induced inflammatory events in RAW 264.7 macrophages and this inhibitory activity of CLA, at least in part, occurs through CLA modulating the NF-kappaB activation and therefore negatively regulating expression of inflammatory mediators.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • cLA consists of positional isomers of linoleic acid having conjugated dienes in the cis and trans configurations.

    “cLA consists of positional isomers of linoleic acid having conjugated dienes in the cis and trans configurations [39], [51], [52].”
  • Conjugated linoleic acid displays immune-modulatory and anti-inflammatory effects, with proposed mechanisms including reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine levels via inhibition of NF-κB-dependent gene expression and activation of PPAR-regulated gene expression.

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.
