Vaccenic acid favourably alters immune function in obese JCR:LA- cp rats

Abstract: Vaccenic acid (VA) is a ruminant-derived trans-fat and precursor of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). The objective of the present study was to explore the effects of VA on immune function in a model of the metabolic syndrome, JCR:LA-cp rats. Lean (2:1 mix of þ /cp and þ /þ) and obese (cp/cp) rats, aged 8 weeks, were fed a control (0 % VA) or a VA diet (1·5 % (w/w) VA) for 3 weeks (twenty rats per group). Splenocytes and mesenteric lymph node (MLN) immune cell phenotypes (flow cytometry), ex vivo cytokine produc… Show more

“…[38] There are insufficient human studies to support an anti-inflammatory role of cis-VA. However, similar to animal model data, [30] a study with 1373 healthy men associated high levels of cis-VA in erythrocyte membranes with high concentrations of the anti-inflammatory peptide adiponectin [39] (Table 2).…”

“…[3,11] Furthermore, palmitoleic acid-treated cells showed an increase of cis-vaccenic acid (VA, 18:1n-7), [25,27] which itself induces several immunemetabolic effects. [28][29][30] Studies with cis-VA are summarized in Table 2.…”

“…VA is a precursor of CLA synthesis in mammary gland, and hence dietary VA may contribute to the amount of CLA available to the human body. There is also an evidence that dietary VA favourably alters the pro-inflammatory tendency of mesenteric lymphocytes from JCR:LA-cp rats (Blewett et al, 2009). VA was also shown to increase the serum level of C18:2 c9 t11 CLA in humans (Salminen et al, 1998;Turpeinen et al, 2002).…”
