Resolving inflammation : dual anti-inflammatory and pro-resolution lipid mediators

TL;DR: New cellular and molecular mechanisms for the resolution of inflammation are presented, revealing key roles for eicosanoids, such as lipoxins, and recently discovered families of endogenous chemical mediators, termed resolvins and protectins, which have anti-inflammatory and pro-resolution properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resolution of inflammation: the beginning programs the end.

TL;DR: Emerging evidence now suggests that an active, coordinated program of resolution initiates in the first few hours after an inflammatory response begins, and the mechanism required for inflammation resolution may underpin the development of drugs that can resolve inflammatory processes in directed and controlled ways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leukotrienes and lipoxins: structures, biosynthesis, and biological effects

TL;DR: The multiple interaction of lipoxygenases generates compounds that can regulate specific cellular responses of importance in inflammation and immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pro-resolving lipid mediators are leads for resolution physiology

TL;DR: The mechanisms of specialized pro-resolving mediators and omega-3 essential fatty acid pathways that could help us to understand their physiological functions are covered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resolvins: a family of bioactive products of omega-3 fatty acid transformation circuits initiated by aspirin treatment that counter proinflammation signals.

TL;DR: It is reported that lipidomic analysis of exudates obtained in the resolution phase from mice treated with ASA and docosahexaenoic acid produce a novel family of bioactive 17R-hydroxy-containing di- and tri-Hydroxy-docosanoids termed resolvins.
