Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a debilitating and widespread immune-mediated illness of unknown etiology. Current treatments are modestly successful and with significant side effects. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current understanding of mechanisms of action underlying the anti-inflammatory actions of CLA and n-3 PUFA in IBD. Nutrition-based interventions that target peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) such as dietary conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) or n-3 PUFA have demonstrated anti-inflammatory efficacy in animal models of IBD. Clinical data on n-3 PUFA in IBD remains generally unimpressive, although results of a recent human study demonstrate that IBD remission can be maintained by maintaining the n-3/n-6 ratio over 0.65 via n-3 PUFA intervention. In mice, CLA prevented inflammation-driven colorectal cancer by activating PPAR γ and modulating regulatory T cells and macrophages. CLA is the subject of an ongoing clinical study in Crohn’s disease patients. Compelling evidence demonstrates that n-3 PUFA and CLA prevent or ameliorate IBD in animal models. However this basic knowledge has not been translated into novel nutrition-based clinical interventions. For both compounds there is an urgent need for placebo-controlled, large-scale, multi-center clinical trials.
