Localized provoked vulvodynia (LPV) is the most common cause of chronic dyspareunia in premenopausal women, characterized by pain with light touch to the vulvar vestibule surrounding the vaginal opening. The devastating impact of LPV includes sexual dysfunction, infertility, depression, and even suicide. Yet, its etiology is unclear. No effective medical therapy exists; surgical removal of the painful vestibule is the last resort. In LPV, the vestibule expresses a unique inflammatory profile with elevated levels of pro-nociceptive proinflammatory mediators prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), which are linked to lower mechanical sensitivity thresholds. Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), lipids produced endogenously within the body, hold promise as an LPV treatment by resolving inflammation without impairing host defense. Ten of 13 commercially available SPMs reduced IL-6 and PGE2 production by vulvar fibroblasts, administered either before or after inflammatory stimulation. Using a murine vulvar pain model, coupling proinflammatory mediator quantification with mechanical sensitivity threshold determination, topical treatment with the SPM, maresin 1, decreased sensitivity and suppressed PGE2 levels. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a precursor of maresin 1, was also effective in reducing PGE2 in vulvar fibroblasts and rapidly restored mouse sensitivity thresholds. Overall, SPMs and their precursors may be a safe and efficacious for LPV.
