Communicating with the dead: lipids, lipid mediators and extracellular vesicles [PDF]
Apoptosis is a key event in the control of inflammation. However, for this to be successful, dying cells must efficiently and effectively communicate their presence to phagocytes to ensure timely removal of dying cells. Here, we consider apoptotic cell-derived extracellular vesicles and the role of contained lipids and lipid mediators in ensuring ...

Resolvin D1 Halts Remote Neuroinflammation and Improves Functional Recovery after Focal Brain Damage Via ALX/FPR2 Receptor-Regulated MicroRNAs [PDF]
Remote damage is a secondary phenomenon that usually occurs after a primary brain damage in regions that are distant, yet functionally connected, and that is critical for determining the outcomes of several CNS pathologies, including traumatic brain and ...

Occurrence and biological activity of palmitoleic acid isomers in phagocytic cells
Recent studies have highlighted the role of palmitoleic acid [16:1n-7 (cis-9-hexadecenoic acid)] as a lipid hormone that coordinates cross-talk between liver and adipose tissue and exerts anti-inflammatory protective effects on hepatic steatosis and ...
