Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) supplements containing a variety of isomers reduce milk fat yield. We have recently identified trans-10, cis-12 CLA as the isomer responsible for inhibiting milk fat synthesis in dairy cows. Our objectives were to determine milk fat yield and fatty acid composition responses to different doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA. Multiparous Holstein cows (n = 4) were used in a 4 x 4 Latin square design. Treatments consisted of a 5-d abomasal infusion of four doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA, i.e., 0.0, 3.5, 7.0 and 14.0 g/d. Milk fat yield was decreased 25, 33, and 50%, and milk fat concentration was reduced 24, 37 and 46% when cows received 3.5, 7.0 and 14.0 g/d of trans-10, cis-12 CLA, respectively. Feed intake, milk yield, and milk protein content and yield were unaffected by treatment. Milk fatty acid composition revealed that de novo synthesized fatty acids (short and medium chain) were extensively reduced when cows received the two highest doses, but at the low dose (3.5 g/d), decreases in de novo synthesized fatty acids and preformed fatty acids were similar. Changes in milk fatty acid composition also demonstrated that {Delta}9-desaturase activity was inhibited at the two high doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA, but was unaffected by the low dose. Results indicate minimal quantities of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (0.016% of dietary dry matter) markedly inhibited milk fat synthesis (25% reduction) and that a curvilinear reduction in milk fat yield occurred with increasing quantities of trans-10, cis-12 CLA.

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are natural components of food products derived from ruminant animals that possess a range of beneficial health effects in animal models (1)Citation . One effect is on nutrient partitioning in which CLA have been shown to dramatically alter lipid metabolism during lactation and growth. Dietary supplements of CLA reduce milk fat synthesis in lactating cows (2Citation 3Citation 4)Citation , pigs (5)Citation and women (6)Citation , and decrease body fat content of several species of growing animals (7Citation 8Citation 9Citation 10Citation 11)Citation . Most investigations of lipid metabolism in lactating and growing animals have used commercial supplements containing a mixture of CLA isomers. As a consequence, it was unclear whether the physiological effects were attributable to specific isomers. We recently demonstrated that the trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer inhibited milk fat synthesis in dairy cows, but the cis-9, trans-11 CLA had no effect (12)Citation . The trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer has also been shown to elicit the reduction in body fat content of growing mice (13)Citation .

The dietary level of CLA supplement used to reduce body fat content of growing animals is typically 0.5–2.0% [see summary by Baumgard et al. (14)Citation ]. These supplements provided dietary levels of trans-10, cis-12 CLA ranging from 0.2 to 0.5%. In contrast, the quantity of CLA required to induce a substantial reduction in milk fat synthesis in lactating animals is considerably less. For example, a mixture of CLA isomers at 0.23% of dry matter intake caused a reduction of >50% in milk fat yield (2)Citation , and abomasal infusion of trans-10, cis-12 CLA at a level of 10 g/d (0.05% of diet) resulted in a 44% reduction in milk fat yield (12)Citation . However, there have been no dose-response studies with pure CLA isomers, and accurate comparisons among studies are difficult because of differences in the content and isomer composition of CLA supplements. Our objective was to determine the milk fat response to differing amounts of trans-10, cis-12 CLA in lactating dairy cows. We previously established that milk fat content of de novo synthesized fatty acids and fatty acid products of {Delta}9-desaturase were markedly reduced during abomasal infusion of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (12)Citation . Effects on milk fat composition relate to the potential mechanisms of action; therefore, a second objective was to examine effects on milk fatty acid composition across the range of trans-10, cis-12 CLA doses.

Animals and diets.

All procedures involving animals were approved by the Cornell University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. Multiparous lactating Holstein cows (n = 4; 228 ± 54 d postpartum; mean ± SD) fitted with rumen fistulas were randomly assigned in a 4 x 4 Latin square experiment. Cows (608 ± 40 kg body weight) were housed in metabolic tie stalls in an environmentally controlled room (23°C) with artificial ventilation and 24-h lighting. They were fed a total mixed ration formulated using the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (15)Citation . The diet was formulated to meet or exceed the predicted requirements for energy, protein, minerals and vitamins (16)Citation . Chopped alfalfa hay was the major forage component and cracked shelled corn the primary concentrate (Table 1Citation ). Cows consumed feed ad libitum with equal portions of fresh feed given twice daily at 0600 and 1800 h. Orts were weighed and recorded on a daily basis. Water was available at all times.

Treatments were trans-10, cis-12 CLA at 0.0, 3.5, 7.0 and 14.0 g/d. Treatments represent the actual dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA with composition of the CLA supplement (Natural Lipids, Hovdebygda, Norway) presented in Table 2Citation . The CLA supplement was emulsified in skim milk to obtain an adequate volume so that infusions would provide a uniform and continuous supply of CLA. Emulsions were prepared each experimental period using a microfluidizer as previously described (2)Citation . A daily volume of 4 L of emulsion was infused; the concentrations of trans-10, cis-12 CLA in emulsions were 0, 0.088, 0.175 and 0.350% for the 0, 3.5, 7.0 and 14.0 g/d doses, respectively. Skim milk (control infusate) and the emulsions of CLA supplement were stored at 4°C until infused.

All treatments were abomasally infused for 5 d with a 7- to 8-d interval between periods. Infusates passed through the rumen fistula and sulcus omasi into the abomasum via a 0.5-cm (i.d.) polyvinyl chloride tubing (17)Citation . Emulsions were continuously infused using pumps (Plum Infusion System XL 11555; Abbott Laboratories, North Chicago, IL) that were programmed to provide the 4 L volume over a 24-h period.

Cows were milked at 0600 and 1800 h daily. Yield was determined and samples taken from each milking. One aliquot was stored at 4°C with a preservative (bronopol tablet; D&F Control System, San Ramon, Ca) until analyzed for fat and protein by infrared analysis (New York DHI, Ithaca, NY). A second aliquot was stored at -20°C until analyzed for fatty acid composition.

Fatty acid analysis.

Milk fat was extracted according to Hara and Radin (18)Citation and transesterified according to the method of Christie (19)Citation with modifications (2)Citation . Fatty acid methyl esters were quantified using a gas chromatograph (Hewlett Packard GCD system HP 6890+; Avondale, PA) equipped with a SP-2560 fused silica capillary column [100 m x 0.25 mm (i.d.) with 0.2-µm film thickness; Supelco, Bellefonte, PA]. The oven temperature was initially 80°C then ramped at 2°C/min to 190° and maintained for 15 min. Inlet and detector temperatures were 250°C and the split ratio was 100:1. The hydrogen carrier gas flow rate was 1 mL/min. Hydrogen flow to the detector was 25 mL/min, airflow was 400 mL/min, and the flow of nitrogen make up gas was 45 mL/min. Peaks were identified using pure methyl ester standards (Nu-Chek Prep, Elysian, MN). Additional standards for CLA isomers were obtained from Natural Lipids. A butter oil reference standard (CRM 164; Commission of the European Community Bureau of References, Brussels, Belgium) was used to determine recoveries and correction factors for individual fatty acids. High resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (13C) verified that the CLA supplement was comprised almost exclusively of the trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer (M. Aursand and A. Sæbø, Natural Lipids; personal communication).

Statistical analysis.

Data were statistically analyzed as a 4 x 4 Latin square design using the PROC MIXED procedure of SAS (20)Citation according to the following model

where Yijk is observation, µ is overall mean, Di is dose (i = 1, 2, 3 and 4), Pj is period (j = 1, 2, 3 and 4), Ck is cow (k = 1, 2, 3 and 4) and Eijk is residual error. Orthogonal contrasts were used to test for linear, quadratic and cubic effect of dose. Correlations among measurements were computed using the PROC REG procedure of SAS. To verify treatment effects and control for existing conditions, performance data were covariantly adjusted for preinfusion values. The only performance variable for which this had an effect was dry matter intake.

Fatty acid composition of the supplement was 96.7% CLA with the trans-10, cis-12 CLA isomer representing 97.7% of the total CLA (Table 2)Citation . The only other notable CLA isomer was cis-9, trans-11 which represented 2.3% of the total CLA isomers. All doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA significantly reduced milk fat yield and content without affecting milk yield, milk protein percentage or protein yield (Table 3Citation ). Reductions in yield of milk fat ranged from 25% with the lowest dose (3.5 g/d) to 50% with the highest dose (14.0 g/d) of trans-10, cis-12 CLA. The temporal pattern of milk fat content and yield demonstrated that effects on milk fat were progressive over the first days of infusion, reaching a nadir by d 4 and 5 (Fig. 1Citation ). Feed intake was slightly lower when cows received the two highest doses (Table 3)Citation . However, when intake data were covariately adjusted for preinfusion values, there were no treatment differences (P = 0.10).

Figure 1. Temporal pattern of milk fat content (A) and milk fat yield (B) in cows abomasally infused with different amounts of trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Values are means, n = 4; across treatments, the SEM ranged from 0.11 to 0.15% for milk fat percentage and 47 to 66 g/d for milk fat yield.

 
The temporal pattern of milk fat concentration of trans-10, cis-12 C18:2 during abomasal infusions is presented in Figure 2Citation . The trans-10, cis-12 C18:2 isomer was undetectable (<0.01 g/100 g fatty acids) in milk fat during the control period (zero dose), but concentrations increased to 0.7 g/100 g fatty acids when cows received the highest trans-10, cis-12 CLA dose. Increased concentration of trans-10, cis-12 CLA in milk fat was apparent for all CLA doses by d 1 of infusion, and progressively increased reaching a plateau by d 3. During infusion periods, the increase in milk fat content of trans-10, cis-12 CLA closely paralleled the pattern of decrease in milk fat yield and content. This inverse relationship between milk fat percentage and milk fat content of trans-10, cis-12 CLA is further illustrated in Figure 3Citation in which values for individual cows are presented for each milking over the last 2 d of CLA infusion. Transfer of abomasally infused trans-10, cis-12 CLA to milk fat averaged 20.9 ± 4.1% (mean ± SD for d 4 and 5) and ranged from 24.9% for the low dose to 16.8% when cows received the high dose (data not shown).

Data represent samples obtained at each milking from individual cows (n = 4) on d 4 and 5 of abomasal infusion of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (3.5, 7.0 and 14.0 g/d). The mathematical relationship between milk fat percentage (y) and milk fat content of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (x) was y = -0.97x + 2.31 with R2 = 0.62 and P < 0.01 for the correlation test.

 
Fatty acid composition of milk fat was markedly altered by treatment (Table 4Citation ). Percentages of most C6 to C14 fatty acids were reduced in cows receiving the 3.5 and 7.0 g/d dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA and all were decreased in milk fat when cows were abomasally infused with the highest dose. As a consequence, there was a corresponding increase in the concentration of most long-chain fatty acids. Infusion of trans-10, cis-12 CLA also altered those fatty acids that are substrates and products of {Delta}9-desaturase (Table 4)Citation . Ratios of myristic to myristoleic acid, stearic to oleic acid, and vaccenic acid to cis-9, trans-11 C18:2 were significantly increased in milk fat from cows receiving the highest dose but were not affected by the lowest dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA. A similar trend was evident for the palmitic to palmitoleic acid ratio, another precursor-product pair for {Delta}9-desaturase.

Yield of milk fat decreased in a curvilinear manner in response to increasing CLA dose (Fig. 4Citation ), and the decrease involved yields of all fatty acids. However, the pattern (de novo vs. preformed) of reductions in yield of fatty acids differed among treatments (Fig. 5Citation ). In particular, the proportion of the reduced yield of milk fat varied for de novo synthesized fatty acids (<C16), representing 28, 44 and 47% of the decrease (mmol basis) for the 3.5, 7.0 and 14.0 g/d doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA.

Values are means (n = 4). and the proportional reduction in milk fatty acids (mmol/d) is partitioned according to origin, i.e., fatty acids <C16 are derived from de novo synthesis, those >C16 arise from the uptake of preformed fatty acids and C16 fatty acids originate from both sources. Milk fat during the control period consisted of 42% <C16, 24% palmitate and palmitoleic, and 35% >C16.

Initial studies demonstrated that CLA supplements decreased milk fat yield in dairy cows (2Citation 3Citation 4)Citation . On the basis of changes in milk fat composition observed during diet-induced milk fat depression (MFD) (21)Citation , we speculated that effects were due to CLA isomers containing a trans-10 double bond (12)Citation . Indeed, we showed that by d 4 of abomasal infusion, 10 g/d of trans-10, cis-12 CLA caused a 44% decrease in milk fat yield, whereas infusing a similar amount of cis-9, trans-11 CLA had no effect (12)Citation . The present dose-response study extends these results. We observed that trans-10, cis-12 CLA resulted in a curvilinear reduction in milk fat ranging from 25% with abomasal infusion of 3.5 g/d to 50% with 14.0 g/d (Fig. 4)Citation . Both the temporal pattern and the magnitude of milk fat reduction observed in the present study are consistent with our earlier work using a mixture of CLA isomers (2Citation ,3)Citation or a single dose of pure trans-10, cis-12 CLA (12)Citation .

Milk fatty acid composition differs among species, but overall, the fatty acid pattern must yield a triglyceride with fluidity properties allowing for fat secretion (22)Citation . In dairy cattle, milk fatty acids originate from de novo synthesis (short- and medium-chain fatty acids plus a portion of palmitic and palmitoleic acids) and the uptake of preformed lipids (a portion of palmitic and palmitoleic acids plus all longer-chain fatty acids) (23)Citation . In this study, the three doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA resulted in a reduction in the yield of most fatty acids. On a molar basis, fatty acids <C18:0 accounted for ~72% of the decline with the two high doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (7.0 and 14.0 g/d) (Fig. 5)Citation . This change in milk fatty acid composition is similar to our previous results with a 10.0 g/d dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (12)Citation and suggests that the mechanism may involve primarily an inhibition of de novo synthesis of fatty acids. However, at the lowest dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (3.5 g/d), in which milk fat yield was decreased by 25%, the reduction among fatty acids was more equally distributed between short- and medium-chain fatty acids (28%), palmitic and palmitoleic acids (35%) and longer-chain fatty acids (36%) (Fig. 5)Citation . Thus, the mechanism of inhibition must also include a substantial reduction in uptake or utilization of preformed fatty acids. Consistent with this, CLA supplements have been reported to decrease milk fat in nursing women (6)Citation and lactating sows (5)Citation , two species in which milk fatty acids are derived predominantly from mammary uptake of preformed lipids.

Dietary CLA supplements have been shown to inhibit the enzyme activity and gene expression of hepatic {Delta}9-desaturase in rodents (24Citation ,25)Citation . In vitro studies have shown that the specific isomer responsible for this effect is trans-10, cis-12 CLA (26)Citation . Desaturase in the mammary gland has a critical effect on milk fat fluidity by introducing a cis-9 double bond in fatty acids; the most notable precursor:product pairs are C14:0/C14:1, C16:0/C16:1 and C18:0/C18:1. Changes in milk fatty acid ratios for these desaturase pairs indicate that trans-10, cis-12 CLA reduced {Delta}9-desaturase when cows received the two highest doses (Table 2)Citation . This is similar to our previous observations with a CLA supplement containing a mixture of isomers (2)Citation and pure trans-10, cis-12 CLA at 10 g/d (12)Citation . However, the lowest dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA (3.5 g/d) did not significantly alter the ratios for the desaturase pairs even though milk fat yield was reduced 25%. Therefore, a reduction in desaturase does not appear to be a prerequisite for the decrease in milk fat yield, although it has traditionally been observed when cows receive CLA supplements or pure trans-10, cis-12 CLA.

The quantity of CLA as a percentage of diet required to substantially reduce milk fat synthesis in lactating cows is markedly lower than that required to reduce the body fat content of growing animals [see summary by Baumgard et al. (14)Citation ]. For example, abomasally infusing a CLA supplement at 0.23% of the dietary dry matter reduced milk fat yield by >50% (2)Citation , but a similar dietary CLA supplement fed at 1.0% of the diet reduced fat accretion only by 31% in growing pigs (10)Citation . Feeding purified trans-10, cis-12 CLA at 0.25% of the diet reduced body fat content of growing mice by >70% (13)Citation . The potency of trans-10, cis-12 CLA is further illustrated in our experiment in which trans-10, cis-12 CLA at 0.016% of dry matter intake (3.5 g/d) reduced milk fat yield by 25%.

Recent work has suggested a role for trans-10, cis-12 CLA in diet-induced low fat milk syndrome, commonly referred to as MFD in lactating dairy cows. MFD is caused by a range of diets and prerequisites include an altered rumen environment and the presence of dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (27)Citation . Thus, it appears that under certain dietary conditions, rumen fermentation is altered so that the initial biohydrogenation reaction is isomerization of the cis-9 double bond of linoleic acid yielding trans-10, cis-12 C18:2, rather than the typical isomerization of the cis-12 double bond producing cis-9, trans-11 C18:2 [see review by Bauman et al. (28)Citation ]. Although rumen production of trans-10, cis-12 CLA has not been quantified with diet-induced MFD, there is a curvilinear relationship between the reduction in milk fat yield and the increase in milk fat content of trans-10, cis-12 C18:2 (29)Citation . This relationship is similar to the present study with abomasal infusions of varying doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA. In addition, changes in milk fat composition during diet-induced MFD (27)Citation are similar to those observed in this study. The milk fat content of trans-10, cis-12 CLA during diet-induced MFD is ~0.10–0.15% (29Citation ,30)Citation , which is similar to that observed in milk fat from cows receiving the low dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA. However, differences in the magnitude of the reduction in milk fat suggest that additional unique biohydrogenation intermediates may inhibit milk fat synthesis, e.g., trans-10, cis-12, cis-15 conjugated octadecatrienoic acid, the intermediate formed in the isomerization of the cis-9 double bond of {alpha}-linolenic acid (29)Citation . Indeed, Chouinard et al. (3)Citation reported that a CLA supplement containing cis/trans 8,10 also caused MFD.

The biological mechanism(s) by which trans-10, cis-12 CLA exerts its effects on lipid metabolism in lactating animals is unknown, but clearly complex and multifaceted. Reduced rates of lipogenesis are one mechanism by which it could influence fatty acid synthesis, and this appears to be a major point of inhibition, especially with the two highest doses of trans-10, cis-12 CLA. Presumably, this would involve changes in key lipogenic enzymes such as acetyl CoA carboxylase and fatty acid synthetase. This is supported by our recent studies indicating that trans-10, cis-12 CLA, but not the cis-9, trans-11 CLA isomer, reduced the expression of fatty acid synthetase in cultures of bovine mammary epithelial cells (31)Citation . However, changes in milk fat composition from cows receiving the lowest dose of trans-10, cis-12 CLA indicate that mammary uptake or utilization of preformed fatty acids was equally reduced. This may be the result of decreased lipoprotein lipase as has been reported for CLA effects in cultures of 3T3-L1 adipocytes (13)Citation .

This is the first dose-response trial using pure trans-10, cis-12 CLA to evaluate effects on milk fat synthesis. Results indicate that extremely low levels (3.5 g/d, 0.016% of diet dry matter) of trans-10, cis-12 CLA reduce milk fat yield by 25% and that 14.0 g/d of trans-10, cis-12 CLA inhibits milk fat synthesis by 50%. Further research is required to determine the mechanism by which trans-10, cis-12 CLA inhibits milk fat synthesis and to quantify rumen production of this CLA isomer under dietary conditions that result in MFD.
