Lipoxin and Resolvin Receptors Transducing the Resolution of Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
A non-resolving inflammation results in a chronic inflammatory response, characteristic of atherosclerosis, abdominal aortic aneurysms and several other cardiovascular diseases. Restoring the levels of specialized proresolving mediators to drive the chronic cardiovascular inflammation toward resolution is emerging as a novel therapeutic principle.

Glucocorticoids co-interact with lipoxin A4 via lipoxin A4 receptor (ALX) up-regulation
Lipoxin A(4) (LXA(4)) is an eicosanoid which is produced via lipoxygenases and characteristic of its anti-inflammatory effect in many metabolites of arachidonic acid, which are mostly pro-inflammatory. Glucocorticoids are well known also for their strong anti-inflammatory action but induce 5-lipoxygenase, essential to synthesize leukotrienes, which are

The effectiveness of unfractionated heparin vs. low molecular weight (Enoxaparin) in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrom (ARDS) and metabolic dysfunction: an old drug for new indication! [PDF]
Background Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome is a lung disorder defined by the acute onset of hypoxemia, the commonest being abdominal sepsis.Many biomarkers have been studied for diagnostic prognostication and ARDS pharmacotherapy.

Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

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 ...

Distinguishing Features of ILC2s During Type 2 Immune Responses. [PDF]
Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are tissue‐resident cells regulated by diverse signals often emanating from surrounding nonhematopoietic cells at barrier surfaces. Their effector cytokines determine tissue homeostasis at steady state and during type 2 immunity in allergies or worm infections.
