The anti-tumor promotional effects of t9,t11-conjugated linoleic acid (t9,t11-CLA) and t10,t12-CLA were evaluated on the 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced inhibition of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in the human mammary epithelial cell line MCF-10A. The results were compared to those obtained from c9,t11-CLA, which is a more effective anti-tumor promoter on TPA-induced GJIC inhibition in MCF-10A cells than t10,c12-CLA. Cells were treated with 20 μM t9,t11-CLA, t10,t12-CLA, or c9,t11-CLA for 24 h followed by 60 nM TPA for 1 h. Both t9,t11-CLA and t10,t12-CLA equally protected MCF-10A cells from TPA-induced inhibition of GJIC with inferior efficacy to c9,t11-CLA.The protection was due to the ameliorated phosphorylation of connexin43 via suppression of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2) activation. Suppression of TPA-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by t9,t11-CLA and t10,t12-CLA was less effective, relative to c9,t11-CLA. The results suggest that the anti-promotional activities of t9,t11-CLA and t10,t12-CLA are equal but less potent than c9,t11-CLA in TPA-treated MCF-10A cells. The activity might be mediated by the attenuation of ROS production in MCF-10A cells by preventing the downregulation of GJIC during the cancer promotion stage.
