Influence of Dietary Conjugated Linoleic Acid and Fat Source on Body Fat and Apoptosis in Mice*

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), body fat, and apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to determine if consumption of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) by mice could induce apoptosis in adipose tissue. Other objectives were to determine the influence of feeding mice CLA for < or =2 weeks on body fat, energy expenditure, and feed intake. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES A mixture of CLA isomers (predominantly c9,t11 and t10,c12) was included ...

conjugated linoleic acids, amino acid profile and other characteristics of meat produced under identical condition from two iranian fat tailed breeds of lamb

گوشت قرمز یکی از مهم ترین فرآورده های دامی در تأمین پروتئین و انرژی می باشد که در حمل ویتامین های محلول در چربی نیز حائز اهمیت می باشد. انسان مانند سایر مهره داران اسید های چرب ضروری (لینولئیک و آلفا لینولنیک) مورد نیاز خود از طریق غذا تأمین می نماید. اسید های چرب ضروی پیش ساز اسید های چرب غیر اشباع با چند پیوند دوگانه هستند. اسید لینولنیک پیش ساز اسیدهای چرب امگا 3 و اسید لینولئیک نیز پیش ساز ...

Effect of Feeding Canola or Sunflower Seeds on Conjugated Linoleic Acid Enrichment in Cow’s Milk Fat

Two experiments studied the effects of canola or sunflower seed supplementation on conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) concentration in milk fat of lactating cows. In each experiment, only eight cows in early lactation were available to assign to one of two treatments in a completely randomized design and were fed individually for 12 wk. Experiment 1 compared similar diets with or without the additi...

Influence of Linoleic Acid Isomers on Body Fat

Dietary conjugated linoleic acid and body composition.

Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is a group of positional and geometric isomers of conjugated dienoic derivatives of linoleic acid. The major dietary source of CLA for humans is ruminant meats, such as beef and lamb, and dairy products, such as milk and cheese. The major isomer of CLA in natural food is cis-9,trans-11 (c9,t11). The commercial preparations contain approximately equal amounts of c9...
