Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of 0-50 micromol/L trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and cis-9, trans-11 CLA isomers on lipid and glucose metabolism in cultures of differentiating 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Specifically, we investigated the effects of 6 d of CLA treatment on the following: 1) (14)C-glucose and (14)C-oleic acid incorporation and esterification into lipid; 2) (14)C-glucose and (14)C-fatty acid oxidation; and 3) basal and isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis. Trans-10, cis-12 CLA supplementation (25 and 50 micromol/L) increased both (14)C-glucose and (14)C-oleic acid incorporation into the cellular lipid fraction, which was primarily triglyceride (TG), compared with bovine serum albumin (BSA) controls. Although glucose oxidation ((14)C-glucose to (14)C-CO(2)) was unaffected by CLA supplementation, oleic acid oxidation ((14)C-oleic acid to (14)C-CO(2)) was increased by approximately 55% in the presence of 50 micromol/L trans-10, cis-12 CLA compared with BSA controls. In contrast, 50 micromol/L linoleic acid (LA) and cis-9, trans-11 CLA-treated cultures had approximately 50% lower CO(2) production from (14)C-oleic acid compared with control cultures after 6 d of fatty acid exposure. Finally, 50 micromol/L trans-10, cis-12 CLA modestly increased basal, but not isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis compared with control cultures. Thus, the TG-lowering actions of trans-10, cis-12 CLA in cultures of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes may be via increased fatty acid oxidation, which exceeded its stimulatory effects on glucose and oleic acid incorporation into lipid.
