Abstract

The influence of individual conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers on the delta6 desaturation of linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids and on the delta9 desaturation of stearic acid was investigated in vitro, using rat liver microsomes. The delta6 desaturation of 18:2n-6 was decreased from 23 to 38% when the ratio of 9cis,11trans-18:2 to 18:2n-6 increased from 0.5 to 2. The compound 10trans,12cis-18:2 exhibited a similar effect only at the highest concentration. The delta6 desaturation of alpha-linolenic acid was slightly affected by the presence of CLA isomers. The sole isomer to induce an inhibitory effect on the delta9 desaturation of stearic acid was 10trans,12cis-18:2.
