Some differences exist between the male and female immune systems. Despite this, a sex-based analysis is not frequently performed in most studies. Knowing that inflammation is a common undesired effect observed resulting from nanoparticle (NP) exposure, we investigate here how gold NPs with a primary size of 20 (AuNP(20)) and 70 nm (AuNP(70)) will alter the biology of polymorphonuclear neutrophil cells (PMNs) isolated from men and women as well as their potential pro-inflammatory effect in vivo in male and female mice. We found that AuNP(20) significantly delay apoptosis only in PMN isolated from men. The production of interleukin (IL)- 8 by PMNs was increased by both AuNPs regardless of sex although significance was only observed in AuNP(20)-induced PMNs. Using the murine air pouch model of inflammation, AuNPs did not induce a neutrophilic infiltration regardless of sex. In conclusion, AuNPs could differently alter the biology of PMNs according to sex.
