description | Abstract Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) exacerbates susceptibility to inhalation exposures such as particulate air pollution, however, the mechanisms responsible remain unelucidated. Previously, we determined a MetS mouse model exhibited exacerbated pulmonary inflammation 24 h following AgNP exposure compared to a healthy mouse model. This enhanced response corresponded with reduction of distinct resolution mediators. We hypothesized silver nanoparticle (AgNP) exposure in MetS results in sustained pulmonary inflammation. Further, we hypothesized treatment with resolvin D1 (RvD1) will reduce exacerbations in AgNP-induced inflammation due to MetS. Results To evaluate these hypotheses, healthy and MetS mouse models were exposed to vehicle (control) or AgNPs and a day later, treated with resolvin D1 (RvD1) or vehicle (control) via oropharyngeal aspiration. Pulmonary lung toxicity was evaluated at 3-, 7-, 14-, and 21-days following AgNP exposure. MetS mice exposed to AgNPs and receiving vehicle treatment, demonstrated exacerbated pulmonary inflammatory responses compared to healthy mice. In the AgNP exposed mice receiving RvD1, pulmonary inflammatory response in MetS was reduced to levels comparable to healthy mice exposed to AgNPs. This included decreases in neutrophil influx and inflammatory cytokines, as well as elevated anti-inflammatory cytokines. Conclusions Inefficient resolution may contribute to enhancements in MetS susceptibility to AgNP exposure causing an increased pulmonary inflammatory response. Treatments utilizing specific resolution mediators may be beneficial to individuals suffering MetS following inhalation exposures. |
