Chronic effect of AgNP exposure and modulation by RvD1 treatment on pulmonary pro-inflammatory resolution protein level A Interleukin 10 protein and on lipid involved in inflammatory resolution B Resolvin D1 levels from BAL fluid healthy and MetS mice. 24 h following oropharyngeal aspiration of pharmaceutical grade sterile water (control) or AgNPs (50 µg) in sterile water, mice were oropharyngeal aspiration with 400 ng RvD1 or sterile saline (vehicle). Endpoints were evaluated at 3-, 7-, 14- and 21-days post AgNP exposures. Values are expressed as mean ± S.E.M. * AgNP exposure; # disease model; $ treatment; and t time point (p < 0.05)
