title: [Effect of conjugated linoleic acid on gene expression of adiponectin of obese rat fed with high fat diet].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on expression of adiponectin in white adipose tissue of obese rats.
  
  
  METHODS
  Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, high-fat group and high fat + CLA group (0.75 g, 1.50 g, 3.00 g per hundred gram diet weight), we observed the effect of CLA on serum insulin and glucose levels of obese rats, and the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique was used to measure the expression level of adiponectin and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) mRNA.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The serum insulin and glucose levels of obese rats were (11.11 +/- 2.73) microIU/ml, (5.09 +/- 0.66) mmol/L. The supplement of CLA decreased the hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia, the serum insulin in CLA group (0.75 g, 1.50 g, 3.00 g per hundred gram diet weight) were (6.99 +/- 1.77) microIU/ml, (7.36 +/- 1.48) microIU/ml, (7.85 +/- 1.60) microIU/ml (P < 0.05), and glucose were (4.28 +/- 0.72) mmol/L, (4.18 +/- 0.55) mmol/L (P < 0.05), (4.06 +/- 0.63) mmol/L (P < 0.05), CLA can increase the expression of adiponectin and PPARgamma in adipose tissue of obese rat.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The CLA might improve the insulin resistance of the obese rat and increase the expression of adiponectin mRNA, which might possibly act through activating PPARgamma.
