Encapsulation of Docosahexaenoic Acid Oil Substantially Improves the Oxylipin Profile of Rat Tissues
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a major n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) particularly involved in cognitive and cardiovascular functions. Due to the high unsaturation index, its dietary intake form has been considered to improve oxidation status and ...

Specialized pro‐resolving mediators: biosynthesis and biological role in bacterial infections
Here, we focus on specialized pro‐resolving mediators (SPMs) generated from omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in response to bacterial infections. SPMs are immunoresolvents that actively terminate inflammation by limiting neutrophil influx, stimulating phagocytosis, bacterial killing and efferocytosis by macrophages.

The pathogenic mechanism of oral bacteria and treatment with inhibitors
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to introduce the evidence obtained through extensive research that periodontitis increases risk of many systemic diseases. Method Analysis of some oral bacteria (P. gingivalis, T. denticola, T. forsythia, A. actinomycetemcomitans, and F.

AbstractNeutrophils play a major role in inflammation by releasing large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by NADPH oxidase (NOX) and myeloperoxidase (MPO). This ROS overproduction is mediated by phosphorylation of the NOX subunits in an uncontrolled manner.

Omega‐6 and omega‐3 oxylipins as potential markers of cardiometabolic risk in young adults
Abstract Objective Omega‐6 and omega‐3 oxylipins are known to play a role in inflammation and cardiometabolic diseases in preclinical models. The associations between plasma levels of omega‐6 and omega‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acid–derived oxylipins and body composition and cardiometabolic risk factors in young adults were assessed.

Chronic low‐grade inflammation of aging muscle was associated with a basal deficiency of maresin 1, resolvin E3, 8‐oxo‐resolvin D1, and anti‐inflammatory fatty acid epoxides. Aged mice produced normal amounts of most prostaglandins following muscle injury but were deficient in local biosynthesis of markers of the lipoxins, E‐resolvins, D‐resolvins, and

10-epi-Protectin DX and Resolvin D5<sub>n-3 DPA</sub> Attenuate Multi-Organ Inflammatory Injury in an LPS-Induced Murine Endotoxemia Model. [PDF]
Sepsis is a life-threatening syndrome driven by dysregulated immune activation and multi-organ dysfunction, with limited effective therapies. Oxylipins are endogenous lipid mediators that promote the resolution of inflammation and tissue repair, yet their therapeutic potential in systemic inflammatory diseases remains incompletely understood.

Protectin DX Ameliorates Hepatic Steatosis by Suppression of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress via AMPK-Induced ORP150 Expression [PDF]
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and its bioactive compounds may have suppressive effects on inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and insulin resistance. Protectin DX (PDX), a double lipoxygenase product from DHA has shown a suppressive effect on inflammation and insulin resistance.

A role for 12/15-lipoxygenase-derived proresolving mediators in postoperative ileus: protectin DX-regulated neutrophil extravasation [PDF]
Abstract Resolution of inflammation is an active counter-regulatory mechanism involving polyunsaturated fatty acid-derived proresolving lipid mediators. Postoperative intestinal motility disturbances, clinically known as postoperative ileus, occur frequently after abdominal surgery and are mediated by a complex inflammation of the ...
