Role of diets rich in omega-3 and omega-6 in the development of cancer
Over the past decade, some studies have addressed the therapeutic effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) and the opposite effects of omega-6 (ω-6) PUFAs on several diseases, including cardiovascular disorders, diabetes ...

Emerging Concepts in the Resolution of Periodontal Inflammation: A Role for Resolvin E1
Inflammatory response is a protective biological process intended to eliminate the harmful effect of the insulting influx. Resolution of inflammation constitutes an active sequence of overlapping events mediated by specialized proresolving mediators ...

Role of omega-3 fatty acids and their metabolites in asthma and allergic diseases
Omega-3 fatty acids, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), are found naturally in fish oil and are commonly thought to be anti-inflammatory nutrients, with protective effects in inflammatory diseases including asthma and allergies ...

The omega-3 fatty acids Maresin 1 and Maresin 2 and the protein Annexin A1 are pro-resolving mediators which play an active role in resolution of inflammation. The mediators enhance elimination of apoptotic cells, activation of immune cells and limit invasion of leukocytes.

Introduction. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω3-PUFA) essential for female reproductive and somatic health exert a multi-faceted modulatory effect on metabolism of eicosanoids (including prostaglandins, lipoxins and leukotrienes) and docosanoids ...

N-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and the Resolution of Neuroinflammation
In the past few decades, as a result of their anti-inflammatory properties, n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFAs), have gained greater importance in the regulation of inflammation, especially in the central nervous system (in this ...

Pro-Resolving Mediators in Regulating and Conferring Macrophage Function
Macrophages are central in coordinating the host response to both sterile and infective insults. Clearance of apoptotic cells and cellular debris is a key biological action preformed by macrophages that paves the way to the resolution of local ...

Maresin 1 Resolves Inflammation and Aids Bone Healing in Periapical Lesions
Chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) is a persistent inflammatory condition caused by microbial infections in the root canal system, leading to bone loss and tissue damage. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that maresin 1 (MaR1), a specialized proresolving mediator, facilitates inflammatory resolution and promotes bone healing ...
