Biochem/physiol Actions

Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) is synthesized from arachidonic acid and is an endogenous lipoxygenase-derived eicosanoid mediator.[1] It is a potent human protein kinase C activator. It inhibits cytotoxicity of natural killer cells.[2] LXA4 regulates the immune system and inflammation. In the brain, it modulates neuronal signaling and slow wave sleep. LXA4 binds to cannabinoid receptors.[3] LXA4 plays a key role in the maintenance of endometrium and reproductive function.[4] Depletion of LXA4 contributes to the pathophysiology of cystic fibrosis (CF).[5]

The mechanisms underpinning the failure of inflammation to resolve in diseased musculoskeletal soft tissues are unknown. Herein, we studied bioactive lipid mediator (LM) profiles of tendon-derived stromal cells isolated from healthy donors and patients with chronic tendinopathy. Interleukin(IL)-1β treatment markedly

Resolution of inflammation is essential for tissue homeostasis and represents a promising approach to inflammatory disorders. Here we found that developmental endothelial locus-1 (DEL-1), a secreted protein that inhibits leukocyte-endothelial adhesion and inflammation initiation, also functions as a non-redundant downstream
