Prostaglandin regulation of type 2 inflammation: From basic biology to therapeutic interventions

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 51, Issue 10, Page 2399-2416, October 2021., 2021
Prostaglandins are critical regulators of the Type 2 immune response that occurs in response to parasitic helminth infection or exposure to allergens. These bioactive lipids control the initiation, activation, maintenance, effector functions, and resolution of Type 2 inflammation and can be pro‐ or anti‐inflammatory. As such, prostaglandins produced by
