question: Inflammation is a central process in most benign bladder disorders, and its control is a delicate balance between initiating factors and resolving factors. While recent discoveries have shown a central role for the NLRP3 inflammasome in initiation, the resolving pathways remain unexplored. Resolution is controlled by specialized pro-resolution mediators (SPMs) functioning through seven receptors (six in rodents). Here we demonstrate expression of all seven in humans (six in mice) through immunocytochemistry. Expression was universal in urothelia with most also expressed in smooth muscle. We next explored the therapeutic potential of three SPMs; Resolvin E1 (RvE1), Maresin 1 (MaR1), and Protectin D1 (PD1). SPMs promote epithelial wound/barrier repair and RvE1 triggered dose-dependent wound closure in urothelia in vitro (scratch assay) (EC90 = 12.5 nM). MaR1 and PD1 were equally effective at this concentration. In vivo analyses employed a cyclophosphamide (CP) model of bladder inflammation (Day 0-CP [150 mg/kg], Day 1 to 3 SPM [25 µg/kg/day], Day 4 - analysis). All three SPMs reduced bladder inflammation (Evans blue) and bladder weights to control levels. Effects of RvE1 were also examined by urodynamics. CP decreased void volume, increased frequency and decreased bladder capacity while RvE1 restored values to control levels. Finally, SPMs reduce fibrosis and RvE1 reduced urothelial expression of TGF-β and collagen I to control values. Together these results expand the known SPMs active in the bladder tissue and provide promising therapeutic targets for controlling inflammation in a wide variety of inflammation-associated benign bladder diseases.
