Influenza A virus (IAV) infections are a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Excess mortality during IAV epidemics and pandemics is attributable to secondary bacterial infections, particularly pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Unified nexus of macrophages and maresins in cardiac reparative mechanisms [PDF]
ABSTRACT Macrophages are immune‐sensing “big eater” phagocytic cells responsible for an innate, adaptive, and regenerative response. After myocardial infarction, macrophages predominantly clear the deceased cardiomyocyte apoptotic or necrotic neutrophils to develop a regenerative and reparative program with the ...

DHA- and EPA-derived resolvins, protectins, and maresins in airway inflammation [PDF]
Essential fatty acids can serve as important regulators of inflammation. A new window into mechanisms for the resolution of inflammation was opened with the identification and structural elucidation of mediators derived from these fatty acids with pro ...

Cys-LTs’ Pro-phlogistic Lung Actions Are Regulated by Cys-Maresins [PDF]
Background: Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are potent pro-phlogistic mediators in asthma; however, inhibition of CysLT1 receptors is not a consistently effective treatment, suggesting additional regulatory mechanisms.

Maresins: anti-inflammatory pro-resolving mediators with therapeutic potential.
Although inflammation is protective of the body, uncontrolled acute inflammatory reactions may inflict tissue damage and lead to chronic inflammation. There is a fast-growing research interest in mechanisms that mediate regression of inflammation and actions of anti-inflammatory factors.

Maresin-1 and Inflammatory Disease [PDF]
Inflammation is an essential action to protect the host human body from external, harmful antigens and microorganisms. However, an excessive inflammation reaction sometimes exceeds tissue damage and can disrupt organ functions. Therefore, anti-inflammatory action and resolution mechanisms need to be clarified.

The resolution of inflammation is the primary domain of specialised pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), which include resolvins, protectins, and their forms synthesised under the influence of aspirin and the maresins.

Synthesis of Optically Active Maresin 2 and Maresin 2n-3 DPA [PDF]
AbstractMaresins are among the most potent antiinflammatory lipid metabolites. We report stereoselective syntheses of maresin 2 and maresin 2n-3 DPA. The anti-diol was constructed through epoxide ring opening of an optically active β,γ-epoxy aldehyde, synthesized in situ by Swern oxidation of the corresponding alcohol.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
