Utility of the Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators as Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers in Disease

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
A precision medicine approach is widely acknowledged to yield more effective therapeutic strategies in the treatment of patients with chronic inflammatory conditions than the prescriptive paradigm currently utilized in the management and treatment of ...

Lipoxins and synthetic lipoxin mimetics: Therapeutic potential in renal diseases

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2021
Inflammation and its timely resolution are critical to ensuring effective host defence and appropriate tissue repair after injury. Unresolved inflammation typifies many renal pathologies. The key drivers of the inflammatory response are well defined and targeted by conventional anti-inflammatory therapeutics.

Role of Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators in Modifying Host Defense and Decreasing Bacterial Virulence

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Bacterial infection activates the innate immune system as part of the host’s defense against invading pathogens. Host response to bacterial pathogens includes leukocyte activation, inflammatory mediator release, phagocytosis, and killing of bacteria.

Lipoxins: resolutionary road [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2009
The resolution of inflammation is an active process controlled by endogenous mediators with selective actions on neutrophils and monocytes. The initial phase of the acute inflammatory response is characterized by the production of pro‐inflammatory mediators followed by a second phase in which lipid mediators with pro‐resolution activities may be ...

Anti-inflammatory properties of lipoxin A4 protect against diabetes mellitus complicated by focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Lipoxin A4 can alleviate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury by reducing the inflammatory reaction, but it is currently unclear whether it has a protective effect on diabetes mellitus complicated by focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Lipoxins and aspirin-triggered lipoxin inhibit inflammatory pain processing [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2007
Inflammatory conditions can lead to debilitating and persistent pain. This hyperalgesia reflects sensitization of peripheral terminals and facilitation of pain signaling at the spinal level. Studies of peripheral systems show that tissue injury triggers not only inflammation but also a well-orchestrated series of events that leads to reversal of the ...

The Role of Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators in Cystic Fibrosis Airways Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a recessive genetic disease due to mutations of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene encoding the CFTR chloride channel. The ion transport abnormalities related to CFTR mutation generate a dehydrated

Lipoxin A4 Reduces Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury in Rats with Large-Volume Mechanical Ventilation

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2020
Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) is a severe and inevitable complication in patients who require mechanical ventilation (MV) for respiratory support. Lipoxin A4 is an endogenous anti-inflammatory and antioxidant mediator.

Lipoxins reduce obesity-induced adipose tissue inflammation in 3D-cultured human adipocytes and explant cultures

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Adipose tissue inflammation drives obesity-related cardiometabolic diseases. Enhancing endogenous resolution mechanisms through administration of lipoxin A4, a specialized pro-resolving lipid mediator, was shown to reduce adipose inflammation ...
