A new method for the determination of the main isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in human and animal plasma was developed by gas chromatography coupled to flame ionization detection (GC-FID). The new method introduces three main advantages in comparison to the current available methodologies: firstly it does not require previous lipid extraction, secondly the chromatographic separation of CLA isomers was performed on an Rtx-2330 column significantly shorter and thinner than the typical long highly polar capillary columns in use that allows a faster analysis than in current methodologies, and thirdly the amount of sample needed to perform the analyses was substantially lower than the amount used in current routine methodologies. Its application to human plasma and rat plasma showed to be robust and reliable for quick and correct identification of the main CLA isomers in particular, and the total fatty acid profile in general, in routine analysis.

Isolation of AP1, a rumen bacterium that forms 10,12-conjugated linoleic acid.
JDS Commun

Some microbes in the rumen form 10,12 (10,12)-conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a fatty acid that depresses synthesis of milk fat in dairy cattle and other lactating animals. Despite their importance to milk fat depression, the microbes responsible have been difficult to identify, and no laboratory strain is currently available for study. Here we describe the isolation of AP1, a bacterium that forms 10,12-CLA at fast rates.

The and isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) are associated with anticancer and lipolytic effects in tissues, respectively, but in lactating cows, the latter isomer reduces the milk fat concentration, a detrimental aspect for the dairy industry, as it reduces the yield of milk derivatives. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of providing protected palmitic acid (PA) to grazing lactating Holstein cows supplemented with soybean oil as a source of conjugated linoleic acid, on milk production, fat concentration and mitigation of milk fat depression. Nine multiparous Holstein cows were used, distributed in three groups of three cows each, with initial means of days in milk, live weight, milk production, and number of calvings: 124 ± 16 days, 494 ± 53 kg, 20.

Currently, the identification of valuable candidate genes affecting milk fat synthesis in dairy cows is still limited, and the specific regulatory mechanism is still unknown. In this study, we used primary bovine mammary epithelial cells(BMECs)as a model and utilized overexpression and knockdown techniques for the PI4K2A gene to investigate the specific mechanisms by which it regulates lipid metabolism in BMECs. We studied whether PI4K2A regulates the inhibition of trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (t10,c12-CLA) on lipid synthesis in BMECs.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate microbiome and microbiota-derived C18 dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and to investigate their differences that correlate with arthritis severity in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice.
Methods: On day 84 after induction, during the chronic phase of arthritis, cecal samples were analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing, and plasma and cecal digesta were evaluated using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Differences in microbial composition between 10 control (Ctrl) and 29 CIA mice or between the mild and severe subgroups based on arthritis scores were identified.
