Targeting adipose tissue with dietary oils - new findings on fatty acids and chronic disease Dietary fats and chronic disease Martha A Belury, Ph.D., R.D. Carol S. Kennedy Professor of Nutrition Belury.1@osu.edu
Obesity is a BIG issue Decreases mobility & QOL Social stigma Increases risk for metabolic, cardiovascular diseases & some cancers Increases inflammation
Obesity is a condition where there is an excess of adipose tissue § • Storage of Oil droplets • Triglycerides • 3 fatty acids + glycerol • Energy • Insulation • Secretescytokines & adipokines • Interleukin 6 • Leptin& Adiponectin
Inflammation & Chronic Disease Central Obesity Some Cancers MetS & T2 Diabetes Systemic Inflammation Alzheimers Heart Disease
One third of adults havemetabolic syndrome Weight loss ATP III Criteria: Grundy et al., Circulation 25: 2735 (2005) 3 or more: Abdominal obesity Impaired fasting glucose Atherogenicdyslipidemia Elevated blood pressure
Distribution of adipose is a key driver of the metabolic syndrome

Linoleic acid (18:2n6) • Major PUFA in US diet • Functions • Phospholipids: growth of tissues • Barrier for epithelial tissues • Lipid metabolism • Arachidonic acid & Eicosanoids • Hepatic cholesterol metabolism
Linoleic acid lowers cholesterol “With vegetable oils this decrease [of cholesterol] is thought to be largely due largely to a poly-unsaturated fatty acid known as linoleic acid.” Page et al., Circulation 15: 97 (1957)

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6n3) Alpha-linolenic acid (A-LNA; 18:3n3) Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5n3)
Long-Chain Omega Three Fatty Acids • EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) & DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) • May Protect Against Heart Disease, Certain Types of Cancers • Decrease inflammation
Cold Water Fish • Fortified foods • Supplements
What do you know? • Fatty acids are small molecules that are stored in __________ tissue. • Muscle • Liver • Heart • Adipose • All of the above
What do you know? • Adipose tissue functions to: • Store energy • Insulate the body • Alter gene expression • Alter inflammation • All of the above
Fatty Acids Can Turn on Gene Expression • Fatty Acidsbind to proteins • Transcription Factors • Turn onGene Expression • Responsive genes that regulate: • Fat metabolism • Energy metabolism PPAR Fatty Acid
Fatty Acids May Alter Inflammation by: Changing adipose size Affecting prostaglandin levels Changing expression of genes that code for proteins that affect inflammation (IL-6, Adipokines, etc)
Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) t10c12-CLA c9t11-CLA Linoleic acid (LA 18:2n6)
Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) • Oil Fraction of Ruminant Products • Dietary supplements
Very Low Dose* t10c12-CLA Shrinks Adipocytes § CON CLA *0.11wt% of diet, 17 days
CLA Increases Basal Temperature (ob/ob mice)
Does CLA Burn Fat* in Humans? * ‘Burn’ mean induce thermogenesis

Does CLA Shrink Adipose? 1 lb. adipose = 3500 kcal
1. CLA lowers total adipose mass2. SAF lowers trunk adipose mass -3.7 lbs -3.1 lbs Norris et al., 2009
So far…. In Postmenopausal women with T2 DM: • CLA • reduces BMI and adipose mass • no effect on markers of glycemia • SAF • reduces trunk adipose mass, HbA1C, glycemia • increases HDL and lean body mass

Ohio State UniversityFish Oil and Stress in Older Adults Fish Oil • Accumulates in plasma as • Increased omega 3 • Decreased omega 6 • lowers markers of inflammation • Decreased oxidative stress Omega 6: Omega 3 ratio • Decreased marker of aging (telomere length)
What do you know? • Safflower Oil is rich in: • Saturated fat • Monounsaturated fat • Omega 6 polyunsaturated fat • Omega 3 polyunsaturated fat • CLA
What do you know? In Postmenopausal women with T2 DM women, CLA: Decreased body weight and adipose mass Increased central adipose mass Decreased glycemia All of the above
What do you know? • Safflower oil supplementation _____ in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes. • Increased inflammation • Improved glycemia • Decreased HDL • Increased trunk adipose • None of the above
What do you know? 6. Fish Oil • Decreased inflammation • Caused faster aging in people • Decreased HDL • Decreased adipose mass • None of the above 46
