Project description:We report the effects of dietary n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on sphingolipid metabolism and airway reactivity in the lung. Mice were fed a n3-PUFA enriched fishoil diet or an isocaloric control coconut oil-enriched diet (CO) for 8 weeks. The n-3 PUFA diet affected pulmonary sphingolipid metabolism, and airway reactivity, independent of inflammation or allergic sensitization. These findings support a role for pulmonary sphingolipid homeostasis in asthma and could have implications for the use of n-3 PUFA dietary supplements in asthma.
