Two conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers, cis‐9, trans‐11 (CLAc9t11) and trans‐10, cis‐12 (CLAt10c12), reduce inflammation in a number of animal models, including collagen‐induced arthritis (CA). However, little is known about the ability of individual CLA isomers to prevent autoimmune disease onset. Evidence that mixed isomer CLA drives T helper cell (Th) 1 responses suggests that CLA, or a specific isomer, exacerbates onset of Th1 autoimmune diseases. In two experiments, we examined if prior dietary exposure to CLAt10c12 (experiment 1) or CLAc9t11 (experiment 2) affected the incidence or severity of CA. DBA/1 mice were fed a semi purified diet with either 6% corn oil (CO, w/w), 5.75% CO plus 0.25% CLAt10c12, or 5.5% CO plus 0.5% CLAc9t11 prior to arthritis development. Arthritis incidence and severity, anti‐collagen antibodies, paw cytokines, and hepatic fatty acids were measured. CLAt10c12 had no effect on arthritis incidence but increased arthritic severity (42%, P = 0.02); however, CLAc9t11 decreased arthritis incidence 39% compared to CO fed mice (P = 0.01), but had no effect on disease severity. CLAt10c12‐induced increase in anti‐collagen type II IgG antibodies may be a mechanism by which this isomer increased arthritic severity, and CLAc9t11‐induced increase in Th2 paw cytokines (IL‐4 and IL‐10, P ≤ 0.04) may explain how CLAc9t11 reduced the arthritis incidence. While both isomers are well known to reduce inflammation in arthritic mice, these new data suggest isomer differences when fed prior to autoimmune disease.
