Abstract:
:Consumption of dietary fat has been linked to the high incidence of certain cancers. However, recent research has stimulated interest in conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a newly recognized anticarcinogenic fatty acid. Human MCF-7 breast cancer cells were incubated for 12 d in culture medium supplemented with various concentrations (1.78-7.14 x 10(-5) M) of linoleic acid (LA) or CLA. Linoleic acid initially stimulated MCF-7 cell growth with an optimal effect at concentrations of 3.57-7.14 x 10(-5) M, but was inhibitory at similar concentrations after 8 and 12 d of incubation. In contrast, CLA was inhibitory to cancer cell growth at all concentrations and times tested. Cell growth inhibition by CLA was dose- and time-dependent. Growth retardation at the prescribed LA and CLA concentrations ranged, respectively, from 4 to 33% and 54 to 100% following 8 to 12 d of treatment. At similar LA and CLA concentrations, cytostatic and cytotoxic effects of CLA were more pronounced (8-81%) than LA. These in vitro results suggest that CLA is cytotoxic to MCF-7 cells.
